AMAZON ECHO V/S GOOGLE MINI

There are many smart speakers available in the market. Each one as its own features when compared to the other. The people are confused as to which speaker they have to buy and which is budget friendly.

         Amazon has recently launched a new product that is Amazon Echo (3^rd Gen), which is better than the previous  version of smart speakers of which is echo dot 2^nd generation. There is a competition between speakers of Echo dot 3^rd gen and Google mini. Below, is the comparison between Amazon Echo Dot (3^rd Gen) and Google Home Mini.

Which is “THE BEST SPEAKER “of the Two?

From the above comparisons, I recommend Amazon Echo Dot new version , as it has better mike, which gives better sound effect, better volume control and connects an external speaker ,this also responds faster from a short  distance when compared to Mini. Both are budget friendly and are easy to access and has a sleek design which matches to any decor.

NEW TECH FRIEND- SMART SPEAKERS

         

In this world new inventions are taking place for people to make their life simpler, easier and faster and the inventions in technology have made a machine or a device to be friend of humans and thus devices like Laptops, iPod's, Tablets, Smartphones, Bluetooth Speakers  were invented.

The world has seen the revolution of smartphones and other devices , and now it is the time for “SMART SPEAKERS WITH VIDEO”. They are becoming the New Tech Friend of the people.

   

SMART SPEAKERS:

SMART SPEAKERS are speakers which are capable of doing anything beyond producing sound and that they respond to a command when asked. They have Artificial Intelligence (AI) built in the device and are wireless speakers.

Can a SMART SPEAKER be a tech friend?

            These have Digital Assistants and these are your new tech friend. The reason is ,if we convey or order a command these digital assistants does the work for us. They show the video also.

Eg: We can ask the weather of a place, ask a recipe of particular Chef, Play a song on your favourite actor or singer , set a reminder , ask cricket score etc.

            Each company has its own digital assistants and they are:

 1. Amazon   –   Alexa

 2. Google      –  Google.

 3. Apple        –  Siri.

4. Microsoft   –  Cortana

5. Samsung’s  – Bixby

Microsoft and Samsung's are less known among the people.

                                                                                                                              

Amazon was the first to release Smart Speaker “ECHO” in 2014.

SIGINIFICANCE:

These digital assistants are taken by “STORM” all over the world. In other countries people are using the technology by connecting this speaker to the Smart devices of the house and control them.

  In India it is gaining its importance now & many people are trying to have this “NEW TECH FRIEND”. This is like people using mobile phones, and moved to smartphones. So, in the same manner people are moving from Bluetooth to Smart Speakers.

            This is the new technology to be adopted because many other features are being added to these devices and Company Giant’s like Amazon, Google are working to bring regional languages in this.
