    Let's be honest. If you wait around you can probably get this for free with a lightbulb or something. But you want a smart speaker now to put in the bathroom so you can sing along in the shower. As far as home assistants go, there's very little difference between this and Alexa. They both carry out the same tasks, it's really just a question of if you have one ecosystem already or not. This is a totally adequate smart home speaker solution if you don't want to drop $100 on a premium speaker.
