A few weeks ago, Amazon announced the availability of a new product called Amazon Echo Frames.  What are they, and why should you care?

Amazon Echo Frames are shipped from and sold by Amazon Digital Services LLC.  They are eye-glasses that enables a person to have access to Alexa when ever, and where ever they are.

According to the information:

  • Meet Echo Frames – All-day glasses with hands-free access to Alexa.
  • Just ask Alexa – Make calls, set reminders, add to your to-do lists, listen to podcasts, or control your smart home from anywhere.
  • Designed for all-day wear – Echo Frames are lightweight and compatible with most prescription lenses.
  • VIP Filter – Customize which notifications to receive from the contacts and apps that matter most to you.
  • Thoughtful design – Amazon open-ear technology directs sound to your ears and minimizes what others can hear. And with no camera or display, you stay in the moment.
  • Does even more – Supports access to Google Assistant from a compatible device.
  • Designed for privacy – Microphones are designed to respond to the voice of the person wearing the frames and turn off with the double-press of a button.

However, these glasses do have their limitations, such as:

  • Echo Frames are not currently compatible with iOS smartphones.
  • Echo Frames require a compatible Android smartphone and the Alexa app for connectivity, and use your existing smartphone data plan. Carrier charges may apply.
  • Echo Frames do not include prescription lenses.
  • Battery life is optimized for everyday Alexa usage. Long periods of playback, like music streaming, will drain the battery more quickly.
