The smart display would allow people watch music videos from Hungama by saying, "Alexa, play latest music videos". It will also allow one to catch up on their favourite shows and videos from Prime Video, or short news clips from some TV channels.
It can also be used to listen to songs from Amazon Music, Saavn, Gaana, Hungama Music, and TuneIn, among others. The device could help you stay in touch with your friends and family with hands-free video calls to those who have an Echo Spot, Echo Show, the Alexa App, or Skype, the company said. (IANS)
