If you find the new Amazon Echo Show 21 to be too large, the update to the 15-inch Amazon Echo Show might be more for you. The Echo Show 15 gets the new camera, audio, and smart home upgrades as its bigger sibling. It comes with an auto-framing camera with better video call quality thanks to double its field of view and 65% more zoom over its predecessor. Amazon adds noise reduction to make calls clearer as well.

This new Echo Show also comes with more "immersive sound, double the bass and room adaption technology." It also supports Wi-Fi 6E, Thread, and Zigbee radios. Plus, it adds Matter Controller capabilities so the display can act as your smart home hub. It can control some of your smart home devices locally, including switches, lights, and plugs. And like the Echo Show 21, it works as a Fire TV with support for Amazon's Fire TV remote.

The Amazon Echo Show 15 has a starting price of $399.99 in Canada. The countertop stand is available separately.
