Amazon gets stylish Echo Dot
    2021-12-29  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

Although Amazon’s Echo Dot has been around for a few years, there’s a limited-edition version of the speaker designed in collaboration with Diane von Furstenberg’s DVF brand.

Called the Echo Dot x Diane von Furstenberg series, the Echo Dots in this range come in three patterns: Midnight Kiss, Ikat and Twigs and are far more stylish than the typical smart device and even more helpful thanks to its crisp, high-quality vocals that make giving it commands a breeze. They all cost US$59.99 each, which is US$10 more than a regular fourth-generation Echo Dot. But it’s the same price as the panda and tiger-themed Kids Edition Dots.

You can ask your Echo Dot to help with basic everyday tasks, like checking the weather or setting an alarm, but you can also use the speaker to assist with those bigger, long-term goals: establishing a calmer morning routine, learning a new language, adding reminders to your calendar to work out or drink enough water. You can even have your Echo Dot read aloud audio books or set up a meditation ritual. Whatever healthy action you want to make part of your regular routine, the device can help make it happen and give you gentle reminders to hold you accountable.

Furstenberg is perhaps most famous for her wrap dresses. She is often claimed to have invented the dress in the 1970s. To make matters even better, Amazon celebrated the gadget’s release by donating to Vital Voices, a nonprofit chosen by DVF that invests in female leaders working on economic inequality, gender-based violence, and other issues.

The new Echo Dot was part of Amazon’s Build It crowdfunding platform. Amazon has introduced a few Build It products to date, including a nutrition scale, a cuckoo clock and a sticky note printer. (SD-Agencies)
