Explained simply
The Echo Show 21 is a large touchscreen display made by Amazon designed to control connected devices in your home. It allows you to manage things like lights, thermostats and security cameras through voice commands or the screen.
Beyond smart home control, the device functions as a general household screen for your kitchen or living room. You can use it to watch television, display recipes whilst cooking, or make video calls with family and friends.
Demand has grown as homes fill with connected devices, each requiring a separate smartphone app to control. A large-screen hub offers a single interface for managing all these devices.
