Amazon has it revealed the all-new Echo Spot In the future Chief Day. It’s very similar the original Echo Spot It came out in 2017 and it happened discontinued two years later except the front face is now split between the hemispherical display and speaker.
Amazon says the new model comes with better sound and a sharper screen. Time will tell if the reboot suffers from the same screen flickering issues like its predecessor. Otherwise, the conceit is more or less the same: it’s a bare-bones smartwatch that can handle a few simple tasks, like providing the weather forecast via Alexa integration or displaying song titles while playing music from your streaming app of choice.
The best part about the new Echo Spot is that it doesn’t have a camera. The original model had one baked in that was useful for video chats, but not everyone was keen to have a camera next to their bed.
The Echo Spot the outer shell comes in Black, Glacier White and Ocean Blue, and the display can be customized with six shades: purple, violet, orange, lime, teal or blue, which can be mixed and matched with different watch faces. The Echo Spot will retail for $80, which is $50 less than the original model. If you’re a Prime member, you can get it for $45 through Prime Day.
