Amazon has reinvented its Echo smart speaker line again and again to convince consumers of its potential.
From fashion-critiquing cameras to microwaves you can ask to make popcorn, the company's repeated renaissance has often felt wildly experimental in a way that hasn’t always clicked with consumers.
The Echo Tap was Amazon ’s first smart speaker to disconnect Alexa from a power outlet.
Amazon 's $ 59.99 AmazonBasics Microwave was designed to connect to existing Echo devices in a home so you could ask Alexa to microwave a potato or a bag of popcorn without having to navigate a menu of cooking presets on the oven itself.
The Echo Input was a small puck-shaped dongle that used an audio cable or Bluetooth to bring music-streaming capabilities and access to Amazon Alexa to existing speakers and audio setups.
Amazon discontinued the Echo Input in 2018 and the Echo Link Amp in 2012 .
