Amazon Echo Auto Arrives on the GetConnected Video Podcast

On this week’s GetConnected Video Podcast, Amazon’s Echo Auto is finally available in Canada. Are refurbished products any good? We talk about the pros and cons. Finally, AJ has some thoughts on the Google Pixel Buds 2. All this and more on the July 18, 2020 edition of the GetConnected Video Podcast.

Watch right now by clicking the video below!

GetConnected Video Podcast – July 18, 2020

The Amazon Echo Auto has been out in the US for a few months now. It’s only recently that Canada got their turn with Echo Auto. John ordered and picked it up in the US some time at the end of last year, giving him ample time to get to know Alexa in the car. This was before all this crazy pandemic stuff happened. After a couple of solid months, he’s got some great thoughts about how this device can transform your relationship with Alexa, for better, and for worse.

Refurbished products are one way many people can save money and help the environment. But in some cases, do you want to purchase something, like Apple AirPods, in a previously loved state? We go over some of the pros and cons of buying refurbs, and whether or not its worth it.

Finally, Canada gets the Google Pixel Buds 2, and AJ gives us his take on the pure Android experience for those looking for a set of compatible Bluetooth earbud-style headphones. Most importantly, he tells us if that auto-translation is the killer feature for travel.

Our hosts this week are Mike Agerbo, AJ Vickery and John Biehler.
