Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. I’m Fred Fishkin. Need a digital assistant in the kitchen? Amazon’s Alexa Show now has some serious competition from Lenvo’s Smart Display which has the Google Assistant built in. There are eight and ten inch models starting at about two hundred dollars. Chances are Google already has your calendar….so that is there from the start….along with YouTube videos and video calling using Google Duo. The Smart Display also has Chromecast capability….so you can stream video from a variety of apps on your phone to the screen. Aside from that….the design has an edge over the Alexa Show. And that may be important in the kitchen where it really shines in delivering recipes. And of course it works with Google’s Nest and other home control devices as well.
