Last there is a power/mode button that turns the speaker on and off by holding it down, and then you can change the current mode by single presses (ie, WiFi, Bluetooth, aux-in).īelow the buttons there are two inputs. One button to play/pause the current track or source, which also enabled pair mode if you hold it down (to pair it to a Bluetooth enabled device such as a smartphone, tablet, laptop and more). There are two buttons for volume: up and down. There are six total buttons, including two of which that can enable or disable the microphone (in case you don’t want Alexa spying on you for any reason). Running down the middle of the speaker on one side is a rubber strip filled with buttons and inputs. The entire top portion is plastic (bottom as well). Its center mass is right in the center where it should be, keeping it upright nicely, even if it gets bumped slightly. Surprisingly, it only comes in one color, which is mostly a theme of gray shades, white text (bottom and logo) and a multi-color LED ring on top to display status as well as Amazon Alexa’s modes. Its has a cloth grille surrounding it similar to the material you’d find in a couch or Lazy Boy rocker.
The speaker is ultra light, weighing just a tad more than a pound in weight. With this, you can just grab a speaker and take Alexa anywhere you need her. It features wireless support for both Bluetooth and WiFi, and packs a litheon rechargeable battery good for up to 5 hours in Bluetooth or 2 hours in WiFi. What looks quite similar to an Amazon Echo speaker or an Ultimate Ears Boom, the iLive Platinum Concierge allows you to take your speaker (with Alexa) on the road with you. For now, though, we will keep to the category of speakers with a focus on another Alexa built-in option, a portable speaker called the iLive Platinum Concierge. Some of these products include smart speakers (of course), video screens, refrigerators, TVs, and more. Although it hasn’t gotten that far yet, based on the sheer (recent) amount of product we have seen that already supports these assistants, this year will have become one of their biggest expansions into homes yet. It won’t be too long until Amazon Alexa and Google Home (maybe Siri…) are pretty much a part of everything in your house that plugs into the wall.
