The desire for speed and convenience seems to be hardwired into human behavior. The less energy we expend to accomplish our tasks, the better - that's why voice assistants like Amazon's Alexa are thriving right now.
Alexa is primarily known for living inside Amazon devices like the Echo Dot, but it turns out you don't actually have to own an Echo speaker to take advantage of Alexa's capabilities. Many everyday devices like headphones and car dash cams have Alexa built in, allowing you to do things you thought you could only accomplish with an Echo speaker.
These gifts are all perfect for anyone who loves the convenience of Alexa and is always tinkering around to create the most seamless smart home setup.
