3. Google Home Will Soon Make Calls
The smart home speaker war is heating up — like Amazon’s recently unveiled Echo Show, Google also announced that its Home speaker will soon be able to make hands-free calls. Users will be able to call any number within the U.S. and Canada for free, and they’ll have the option of connecting their smartphone number to Home. That’s an advantage over Amazon Echo, which will be limited to calling other Echo devices — at least for now. Another nifty feature is tied to the fact that Home can differentiate between users’ voices. For example: you can ask Home to call your mother, and your spouse can make the same request, but the device will know which mom to call based on who’s asking.
