Comments on: Amazon Echo Puts A Siri-Like Virtual Assistant In A Bluetooth Speaker https://www.coolthings.com/amazon-echo/ Sat, 17 Jun 2017 02:38:51 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.5 By: Danielle R https://www.coolthings.com/amazon-echo/comment-page-1/#comment-450744 Sat, 17 Jun 2017 02:38:51 +0000 http://www.coolthings.com/?p=54226#comment-450744 I’m still amazed with how popular virtual assistants have become over the past few years. I admit I haven’t really tried using Siri on my iPhone, but I can definitely see the appeal to it. I really need to make a point of trying to use it. But if you’re looking for a virtual assistant and you don’t have a smartphone, or you do and want to keep it free, I think the Amazon Echo is the way to go – especially if you use Amazon Music, Prime Music, iHeartRadio, and TuneIn Radio. All four apps are integrated with the Echo and can be used alone as long as it’s connected to Wi-Fi. Also I am pretty sure that the Amazon Echo is readily available now. I just saw a deal for one on Facebook last night.
