Geek Uninstaller

Amazon Echo Dot with Clock (2020) review

Image
The new Amazon Echo Dot with Clock (2020) was announced alongside a host of other Echo speakers at the company’s hardware event in September, with the latest new Echo Dot coming with a smart LED timepiece.  Jump to Price and availability Design Setup Smart assistant Audio performance Should I buy it? Like its predecessor, the Echo Dot with Clock can double as a bedside alarm, albeit one that comes with all the smarts of Alexa on board alongside the ability to control your smart home devices (via a separate Zigbee-supporting speaker).  It has undergone a rather radical design overhaul over the previous Echo Dot with Clock , sporting a space age-esque spherical design that's available in both gray and white color schemes. All the features of the previous Echo Dot with Clock remain, including a 3.5mm AUX-in port, and the blue Alexa light ring – although this is now located at the bottom of the smart speaker rather than the top.  (Image credit: TechRadar) ...

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate

Image
Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is essentially a bundle of multiple services in one monthly payment. With it, subscribers get Xbox Game Pass for console, the PC version, and Xbox Live Gold all rolled into one. That means you can pick from a buffet of games on console or PC, and be able to play them all online, and you may never need to buy a game ever again on Xbox One or one of the new Xbox Series S / Series X consoles. The service is such a core pillar of Xbox’s strategy that you can buy one of the new consoles with it as part of the Xbox All Access service. With a wealth of third-party games rotated into the service on an almost weekly basis, first-party games arriving on launch day (including the upcoming Halo Infinite ), and your monthly Xbox Live Gold fee included, it’s a great deal even if you’re just a console player. Factor in the PC version of Game Pass for even more titles to play, as well as the addition of EA Play on both platforms, and you’ll never run out of...
