The next great Amazon Big Alexa event is imminent, and is destined to be an important one for everything related to home and intelligent home. The device -centered event, which will take place on February 26 at 10 am et in New York City, marks Alexa’s first announcement from the company since September 2023. It was then that the Echo Pop Kid Smart was revealed Sporter and its second generation echo show 8. This time, Amazon probably focuses on Alexa’s voice and could announce a great change for his smart assistant.
While Amazon has not officially revealed what is reserved for its Alexa event, it has not been afraid to leave small clues here and there in the accumulation of the next launch of the device. Until now, we can venture a safe assumption that Alexa’s voice assistant will be the main approach of the event, which is said to receive a significant update of AI, followed by the announcement of a new Intelligent speaker echo and possible Fire TV updates.
Therefore, we have a solid idea of what we expect after the technological giant, but as we have said, nothing has been put in stone. We will not know with certainty until Amazon makes it official during your event, so you can bet that our eyes will peel for all the last ads during our blog live, which we will update regularly throughout the event. Even so, before that, these are the ads we hope to see in tomorrow.
A next generation Alexa
In the last event of the Amazon device in September 2023, the company joked us with a brief look at Alexa Ai, a version of the voice assistant with Chatgpt -style functions. This could include an advanced capacity to interpret the context and distinguish natural speech, make multiple applications in a single voice command and a possible monthly subscription rate.
There is no doubt that Alexa AI will be the show star in the Amazon event. However, as the recent leaks have pointed out, the renewal of AI can be delayed slightly before granting access.
We have recently informed that an anonymous source informed the Washington Post ($/£) that Alexa’s voice reviewed by AI had been experiencing inaccuracies when asked. As a result, its release date could now go back until March 31, but it will still be announced at the Alexa de Amazon event tomorrow.
New Smart Speakers of Eco
There is the possibility that we can see a new Echo speaker, join the endless alignment of Amazon’s intelligent domestic devices that constitute some of the best smart speakers. The last time the company presented a new speaker of Alexa was the Amazon Echo 4th Gen in 2020.
Despite omitting its Alexa event last year, Amazon does not die of some fresh echo devices in their other ranges of intelligent domestic devices. In particular, the Echo Show 21, which reigns like its largest echo device, and its Echo Spot smart alarm speaker made its debut.
Given the almost five years gap since the last update of Amazon echo speakers, an ad is not completely unrealistic. A new intelligent speaker would also be useful for matching with Alexa’s voice integrated into AI-AI.
Alexa subscription levels
As we know, Alexa AI is likely to appear during the Big Alexa de Amazon event. However, we believe that the renewed voice wizard will offer limited free use before entering a monthly subscription rate. Fortunately, however, this will probably not affect the classic Alexa that we all know and love.
We have been aware that Amazon has been playing with the idea of implementing a rate for its new voice of Alexa that could cost him between $ 5 and $ 10 per month. Taking into account that Amazon has stayed behind its competitors of the chatgpt, Google Gemini and Apple Intelligence and has not yet traveled on the AI train, from a commercial perspective, charging a monthly rate makes sense. However, from a consumer perspective, we are not yet completely convinced that it is worth waste, given its numerous delays and the informed inaccurate responses.
Updates for Fire TV and maybe a new device
While Alexa’s voice assistant will be the main focus, Amazon is likely to talk about her range of Fire TV devices. Amazon’s 2023 device event revealed features for its Fire TV devices, including a improved Alexa’s voice search function and AI screenshots. After the Amazon Android TV update, we believe that the company could present new Fire TV devices together with the updates of the features mentioned during its event.
New Fire TV Hardware’s mentions were seen in one of Amazon developers, declaring the following; “Fire TV with Android 14 headquarters is based on level 34 of API. The following sections explain some of the [the] Important changes that you should consider when you create applications for Fire TV based on Android 14 “. This gives a strong indication that the new Fire TV devices will be one of the star ads in the tomorrow event.
This filtration has arrived at a very convenient moment with the Alexa event that was due tomorrow, which adds to our suspicions that Amazon could expand its Fire TV line. With the lack of mentions of specific hardware models, we cannot identify what exactly this will imply, but we hope it is the announcement of a new intelligent television or a transmission lever.
