It just introduced the Echo Show in May 2017, which features a tactile 7-inch LCD screen. The original Amazon Echo speaker, however, is still going strong. The Echo measures 9.25 inches high and 3.27 inches around. It is a great voice-controlled personal assistant. Out of the box, voice recognition is pretty fantastic. The assistant "Alexa" will listen to commands, answer questions, play music or control smart home devices, and even help you do your shopping.
