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.

A few ifs-and-buts coupled with the $499 asking price mean Apple's first smart speaker is best suited to the existing faithful. HomePod isn't something you buy on a whim.
