Alexa Echo Input design

The Alexa Echo Input looks like a slimmer version of the 2nd Gen Alexa Echo Dot. Unlike the Echo Dot, the Echo Input does not feature a built-in speaker, so it has to be connected (wired or wireless) to an external speaker to use the Alexa voice assistant.

The Echo Input does resemble a wireless charging pad with four microphones, a mute button, and a menu button. At the center, there is an RGB LED to showcase the mode of the speaker.

How to set up Echo Input

• Plug in the Echo Input to a power source using the power brick
• Download the Alexa app on your smartphone to pair with the Echo Input
• Connect the Echo Input to an external speaker using a 3.5 mm headphone jack or Bluetooth (use Alexa app to pair a Bluetooth speaker)

• Now, ask Alexa to play the latest romantic songs, or ask how is the weather in Venezuela
