Amazon's new Echo Show has a massive, 21

While we wait for Apple to launch its smart home display, Amazon is already delivering the goods.

On Wednesday, the company launched two new versions of its Echo Show smart display, one with a 15-inch, and the other with a 21-inch, display.

Just like the previous Echo Shows, these are smart, Alexa-enabled devices which can display your photos, the weather, a calendar, and the latest news.

Amazon's previous Echo Shows vary from bulky little standalone displays and displays perched upon an oval or circular base, to the flat 15-inch version that's meant to be mounted on a wall.

And while the 15-incher has been upgraded, the star of the show is the new, equally flat, 21-inch version.

It has a 21-inch display with a 1080p resolution, a built-in, 13-megapixel wide angle camera with auto-framing, and four speakers (two woofers and two tweeters). The new version of the 15-inch Echo Show has essentially the same specs, only with a smaller, 15.6-inch Full HD display. Both devices are equipped with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 6E connectivity.
