Amazon Echo Australian Review
The Amazon Echo can do a lot - more than any other smart speaker - but it's not all useful. While Amazon's openness to developers give the Echo and Alexa a clear advantage over competitors, it's still early days for smart speakers.

Truly excellent sound quality is offset by Siri's comparatively limited capabilities and how entrenched HomePod is in the Apple ecosystem.
