Alexa Plus Now Available on Select Echo Show Devices

There's a new Alexa in town – or at least in early access. Alexa+ represents a significant upgrade from the standard Alexa voice assistant, harnessing the power of generative AI. The standout feature of Alexa+ is its ability to engage in more natural, flowing conversations. As Amazon puts it, "Alexa+ is more conversational, smarter, personalized – and she helps you get things done."

Currently, Alexa+ is available in Early Access, but only on a select few Echo Show devices – the Echo Show 8, 10, 15, and 21. If you own or plan to purchase one of these devices, you can be among the first to experience this innovative upgrade.

Following the Early Access period, Alexa+ will be offered as a complimentary benefit for Amazon Prime members or available to non-Prime members for $19.99 per month.

Thanks to its conversational approach, Alexa+ allows you to ask anything that comes to mind as it pops into your head. It can assist with a variety of tasks, from completing your to-do list and finding specific details from your calendar to booking a restaurant and much more. Amazon's Alexa+ Early Access page also highlights that "new features are being added regularly," suggesting that even more capabilities will be unveiled after the Early Access period.

However, not all devices are compatible with Alexa+. Amazon specifies that certain older generation Echo devices – such as the Echo Dot 1st Gen, Echo 1st Gen, Echo Plus 1st Gen, Amazon Tap, Echo Show 1st Gen, Echo Show 2nd Gen, and Echo Spot 1st Gen – will continue to use the traditional Alexa. On the Alexa+ Early Access page, the company assures that "We will soon expand Alexa+ to more devices, including Fire TV and Fire tablets, and Alexa.com."
