Unlike the dongle-like Echo Input, this model doesn’t let you use Alexa with a dumb speaker. Rather, Amazon sees it as a way to bring Alexa with you. “Portability has been one of the most requested features in India,” Amazon devices VP Miriam Daniel told TechCrunch. “You want to be able to carry Alexa with you from room to room within your homes.”

The Tap never really took off because you had to push a button to activate Alexa (something Amazon rectified later), but a better-executed model could work. Amazon currently has no portable Echo devices in Europe and North America, but that could change too — Amazon also told TechCrunch that the new speaker will eventually come to other markets. The Echo Input Portable Smart Speaker Edition is now available on pre-order in India for 4,999 rupees ($70) with shipping set for December 18th.
