This mannequin is similar to the 2017 model — it appears equivalent apart from some new colour choices — but it surely’s obtained some small upgrades on the within, specifically a “quicker” processor, in response to Amazon, and a bump within the base storage from 8GB to 16GB, with a microSD enlargement slot that permits you to add as much as 512GB of extra storage.

Amazon’s pint-size sensible speaker sounds nice, gives easy accessibility to the Alexa digital assistant and was already a strong deal at $50. Almost $30 off that already-low value makes this one a no brainer.
Amazon
