Amazon had one last surprise at its surprise event in Seattle today, and that's the Amazon Echo Spot.
Think of it as a cross between the Amazon Echo Dot and Amazon Echo Show. It's tiny with a 2.5-inch screen that lets you watch camera feeds and video clips, while also giving you information such as reminders to pick up your dry cleaning.
The Spot is like a smart alarm clock with all the perks of a connected device with a display. It would fit nicely on a bed-side table or counter top.
The Echo Spot has four mics along the top, and a line out so it can plug into any speaker. You can swap out the clock faces, which come in a fun variety.
The Echo Spot also has the ability to do video calls, which is an awesome feature for such a minuscule device.
During an event demo, the Spot was used as a nursery camera, so it acts as a smart cam for your home. It can also play video on its screen, such as clips from a late night talk show.
The Amazon Echo Spot costs $129 and will ship in the US in December. It will head to the UK and Germany in 2018.
