I’ve got an old car that’s about 15 years old and it doesn’t have any of the mod cons you find as standard in new cars. Many of the gadgets you get in modern cars I can live without, but hands-free calling is something I’ve always wanted, as it is genuinely useful. Below is my review of the Echo Auto (Gen 2) which I bought to get hands free calling in my car.
What is the point of the Amazon Echo Auto
The first question that everyone asks is, what is the point of the Echo Auto when you can just use the Alexa app or other voice assistant on your phone?
Anyone who has tried to use the Alexa app will know there are two big problems
- You must press the Alexa button before talking to Alexa and issuing commands.
- Making a hands-free call using your phone’s microphone and speaker is just a rubbish experience.
