Amazon Announces Alexa With Video: Echo Show Launches For $229 In June

Forbes - Tech 

Amazon's all-new Echo will have video calling and give even more options to smarthomes. Rumours last week suggested that Amazon would announce a new Echo device with a screen. Today the company has unveiled Echo Show, an all-new Alexa-powered device that features a touchscreen and brings video calling to Amazon's voice assistant platform. The key feature, naturally, will be Amazon's video calling and messaging. Users will be able to use a couple of different modes here, but there's standard video calling, which will allow you to ask Alexa to video call someone with an Echo Show.
