7 things the Google Home can do that Amazon Echo can’t

Amazon's Alexa smart speakers certainly helped normalize the idea of a digital assistant inside the house, but the Google Home is helping spur the expansion of a connected ecosystem. As a result, if all you're looking for is an unobtrusive device in your home to answer questions and act as an entertainment controller, either one of these smart speakers will serve you well. If you're looking for a more contextualized experience, however, or you're merely so tied to the Google ecosystem that you'd rather not play outside of the sandbox, there are reasons to choose a Google Assistant-enabled smart speaker over an Alexa one. Like the fact that there are some commands and services that are compatible with the Google Home and not with the Amazon Echo. I hate the washing the dishes.
