So far, many of us use Amazon Alexa in a certain capacity, whether it’s an Echo Dot speaker for music or an Amazon Smart Plug for voice control. Now, thanks to the second generation Echo Frames, you can get useful Alexa assistance wherever you go, in the form of prescription glasses.
Echo frames have open-ear sound and hands-free access to Amazon Alexa. You can use the frames to make calls, set reminders, add to to-do lists, and more, all with just your voice. They provide unobtrusive sound so you can play audio directly to your ears while reducing what others may hear. The glasses themselves are also light and comfortable, as well as compatible with most recipes.
The battery allows over two hours of talk, Alexa interactions and media playback, based on a 14-hour day or up to four hours of non-stop listening. So whether you want to simplify your daily routine with Alexa support or listen to your favorite music or podcasts on the go without headphones, these frames are here to help.
Although the glasses are a new addition to the Amazon store, the reviews are already pouring in and the buyers are impressed. “I was already in love with [first] generation and he just kicked her out of the park for me. Battery life is better, the sound is much clearer and easier to use, “wrote a reviewer.
Another buyer complimented on how useful these glasses are for walking and road trips. “I like [the open-ear audio] since I like listening to audio books while going for walks and being able to be aware of my environment is very beautiful. I discovered in car travel that there is a sweet place for volume, where they can clearly hear music or audio books and cannot disturb passengers while doing their own thing. Once again being able to hear the environment was important to me as I drove, and Echo frames allow that. “
