The company claims that the new device will continually add functionalities over the time. The device can also be controlled while you are away via its mobile app, which is available to download on Fire OS and Android mobile OS.
The high-end speaker can be used to control Amazon Music, Prime Music, iHeartRadio and TuneIN, but can also be linked via Bluetooth to play Spotify, iTunes or Pandora.
