The editors liked
The Echo Plus keeps the original Echo's design (and its beloved volume ring) while adding in an aux-out jack
A Zigbee radio to control smart home devices
And an incremental boost in sound quality. It costs $30 less than the original Echo
Zigbee connectivity is a plus
Sleek design
The editors didn't like
The Plus also costs $50 more than the new Echo
Which has everything the Plus has except for Zigbee. The Alexa app isn't the fully capable smart home control center that the Echo Plus needs it to be
At least not yet
Not a huge difference in sound quality versus the regular Echo
Zigbee connectivity isn't that much of a plus

New speakers, Offline smart home control coming
Looks like the standard Echo
We love the Echo Plus we have right now and we're expecting that the improved speakers in this version to improve the experience. They certainly sound punchy and if you love music then this is an obvious purchase.It doesn't offer enough to upgrade if you...
Ultimately, the Echo Plus makes sense only for those with compatible smart home products who want to eliminate multiple hubs connected to their router. If that's not you, then the slightly better audio quality compared to the second-gen Echo isn't enough...

Slightly better sound than the Echo, Zigbee compliant, Volume wheel
Need to ensure Zigbee compatibility, If sound is important, pay more
As we said with the standard Amazon Echo, a future version of this device will be able to run your home. Weather about to get bad? It will know and adjust your home's temperature accordingly without you having to ever set up a rule or spend ages configuri...
