Amazon Echo Frames (3rd Gen)

It’s good to beef up the audio, but it wasn’t enough of a change to make these stand above the competition or a compelling alternative to wireless earbuds. But perhaps most crucially, I wasn’t convinced to use Alexa more than I otherwise would have. As it stands, I think Amazon’s getting there with form. It’s just not quite there with function.

The Amazon Echo Frames (3rd Gen) are a noticeable upgrade from the previous wearables with a better fit, improved audio, excellent microphones and Alexa responsiveness, and decent battery life. They could, however, be smarter. A lack of awareness of when you're wearing them, and when someone is talking to you, hinders their usability.
