Amazon has launched its latest smart display devices in India, the Echo Show 11 and the fourth-generation Echo Show 8. These are Alexa-powered smart screens designed to make everyday life easier at home with voice control, entertainment, video calls, smart-home control, and more.
What Are These Devices?
-
Echo Show 11: Comes with a big 11-inch full HD touchscreen that shows clear visuals for video calls, recipes, reminders, and more.
-
Echo Show 8 (4th Gen): Has an 8.7-inch HD screen, ideal for smaller spaces but still powerful and useful.
Both displays have edge-to-edge glass and slim bezels, giving them a modern and sleek look.
Smarter & More Helpful With Omnisense Technology
These new smart displays use Amazon’s Omnisense sensor system and a custom AZ3 Pro chip to make Alexa respond faster and more intelligently. The devices can detect motion, presence, temperature, and sound to suggest or automatically run helpful routines like turning on lights when you enter a room.
Alexa Can Do Even More
With Alexa on the screen, you can:
-
Control smart home devices like lights, fans, cameras, and more
-
Make video calls with family and friends
-
Watch content from apps like Prime Video, Netflix, and YouTube (via the browser)
-
Ask for recipes, weather updates, reminders, or calendar updates
-
Monitor live camera feeds from connected security devices
And all this can be done by voice command or touch.
Better Sound & Camera Features
Both devices come with a 13-megapixel camera that auto-frames you during video calls so you stay in view. They also have a new audio setup with stereo speakers and a custom woofer, delivering deeper bass, crisp sound, and spatial audio for music, podcasts, and videos.
Privacy You Can Control
Amazon says privacy is important. Each device has physical buttons to turn off the microphone and camera, and voice recordings can be reviewed or deleted in the Alexa app.
