The world of smart displays has reached a new level. Amazon has officially unveiled the Echo Show 21, the largest and most advanced model in its lineup, designed to revolutionize both entertainment and smart home management. This new device is the go-to choice for tech enthusiasts and those looking to integrate functional and attractive solutions into their daily lives. And, of course, for those who want the biggest screen possible.
With a 21-inch Full HD screen, the Echo Show 21 positions itself as the central hub of your home. Its sleek, minimalist design makes it ideal not only for wall mounting or placing on a premium stand, but also maximizes screen space, offering an optimal experience for both multimedia consumption and home organization. This device, the largest ever released by Amazon in this category, promises greater immersion when enjoying movies, series, or video calls.
Stunning display and improved sound
One of the Echo Show 21's strongest points is its audiovisual performance. The sound system has been significantly improved, incorporating twice the bass and acoustic adaptation technology that adjusts the audio according to the room's acoustics. This ensures a clear and immersive experience, ideal for streaming, music, or video calls.
Furthermore, its camera is no slouch either. With an expanded field of view and 65% more powerful zoom than the previous 15-inch model, it captures details more effectively and automatically frames people on the call, ensuring smooth and natural video calls. It also features noise reduction technology that eliminates background distractions, guaranteeing clear conversations even in noisy environments.
A more connected and intelligent home
The Echo Show 21 is not only impressive in terms of size and image quality, but it also takes home connectivity to the next level. It's compatible with Matter, Zigbee, Thread, and Wi-Fi 6E, allowing direct connection to a variety of smart devices, such as lights, plugs, and cameras. Its integration with the Smart Home Hub facilitates centralized management of all connected devices, reducing latency and improving efficiency.
In addition, Amazon has taken this opportunity to introduce some interesting organizational features. Customizable widgets allow users to keep important information like calendars, shopping lists, and to-do lists readily available. It also functions, as always, as a stylish digital photo frame, transforming the screen into a decorative element that displays family memories or digital art simply by saying, “Alexa, launch the photo frame.”
Entertainment and customizable options
For entertainment, the Echo Show 21 is compatible with major streaming platforms like Prime Video, Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube. The multimedia experience is enhanced by the built-in Fire TV, which lets you start content in the kitchen and continue seamlessly on your Fire TV in the living room. It also includes a dedicated section for your favorite music, podcasts, and radio stations, making them easy to access from the screen.
Amazon also offers a variety of customization options for the Echo Show 21, including decorative frames in white and light brown (for €43,99), as well as a premium adjustable stand, ideal for adjusting the angle of the device to suit the user's needs.
Prices and availability
The Echo Show 21 is now available for €439,99, including a wall mount and an Alexa Voice Remote for more intuitive control. For those looking for a more compact screen, the company has also released an upgraded version of the Echo Show 15, which now features improved audio quality and a more advanced camera. This version is priced at €329,99.
