## Summary

Amazon has launched the Alexa Photo Frame, a digital frame designed specifically to display photos, with a built-in smart speaker that responds to Alexa Plus voice commands. It offers a dedicated, ad-free way to view and browse family pictures, and lets users attach spoken notes to photos.

The 10-inch touchscreen frame costs $199.99 in black or $229 with a birch or walnut finish. It displays images from Amazon Photos, which has unlimited storage for Prime members, though the frame itself requires no subscription. The app can back up photos from Android and Apple devices and import from iCloud, but not Google Photos; voice notes can currently be added in the app, with recording on the frame planned for later.
