The lack of user identification represents a serious flaw in this device, and I would have picked Google Home in a heartbeat, even without the screen. I've contacted Amazon asking for a definitive date by which they would provide these tools to Australians, and they're meant to respond in 12 hours. If it's anything longer than September as a guaranteed date, I'm taking this thing back to JB Hi-Fi this weekend and switching to Google Home.
I use it as a bedside clock, I previously had a Dot for this purpose but I find this is heaps better because of the visual. Weather isn’t just spoken, it’s shown. Heaps better speaker than the dot as well. I can also see our arlo’s on the screen which is great if you hear something go bump in the night. I wish there was more integration with the Ring doorbell.
Other than that, I haven’t found many more uses. I can see the potential for this and I think amazon is really working on making it better. We need some more Australian skills and that to make this device a worthwhile purchase. Hopefully the Show is released here too.
The touch screen was a real bonus, as initially I was unaware of it being touch screen.
Some areas of the device do not utilise touch screen yet, but I am sure this will be addressed in the future.
Overall, a pretty decent device.
Just be aware it has a pretty chunky Power Adaptor and this may interfere with other devices you want to plug in to the same outlet.
It would get five stars, if you could turn off the 'things to try ads' which shows every time you do any action with it.
