Alexa+ manages to respond immediately, even when he listens to a more complex question and gives more complicated answers. She usually manages to answer all my questions, and even more, “Hmmm, I’m not sure how to answer it” I once heard from the original Alexa. She used to answer me with seemingly simple questions – a cloudy day in the zoo, or where we can book a table for dinner, or Kasha has tickets on sale for her visit. Alexa+ can tell me the calendar details accurately, and it controls my smart home at a much better speed than Google Speaker, which has been controlling my home from last year. I also like that I can access the conversation through the Alexa app in the past. They are grouping through an initial question that I asked, and through conversation makes it easier to reduce it and see what Alexa’s answers are.
If you also set their profiles, Alexa+ will also use the camera to identify you and other members of the house. My Eco Shows will show “Good Morning, Nina” when I approach them and suggest things in your section on the homepage that I remember, such as aerial arts and zoos. When I coincidentally mentioned his name in the conversation, Alexa+ also did a good job, and when my initial thought was that it was not looking at the camera, my further testing showed that it was great to ignore her name if it was a matter of Friday, even if I looked right.
Alexa+ is not yet perfect, nor is it complete. For example, when asked about the nearest donut shops, I provided me in the city where he lived, though I was in a different city at the time. However, these issues were easily remedied by providing more context. The most interesting answer came when I demanded the weather at the zoo, trying to see if it knows to refer to the San Diego Zoo, and instead gave me the weather of Japan. But the next time I said appropriate about the weather in San Diego, and then what to wear to the zoo, he properly guessed what the zoo I was talking about.

Although I can ask all the origin that I will usually do with Alexa+, there are many new things to try.
