The device uses Amazon Alexa as a voice assistant and supports the Matter standard for controlling connected smart home devices.
The single 44 mm speaker is well suited for playing speech and podcasts, but its design means it does not achieve deep bass performance.
With the three built-in microphones, voice commands for the assistant are accurately captured even from several metres away in the room.
