Preorders of Amazon’s touchscreen Echo Show said to start today

Written by

From the leaked image:

  • The new Echo Show will retail at $229.99 in the US
  • Pre-orders can be taken starting Tuesday, May 9, 2017
  • Pre-sale items will begin shipping to customers on 6/28/17

Is this real? It’s just an image, but very well done. The two dates in the image appear in two different formats, which does make me suspicious.

So far, there’s no mention of the Echo Show on Amazon.com. We shall see.

If the Amazon Echo is real, this will certainly inform any similar product plans from Apple. The bar has clearly been established by Amazon in this category.
