Amazon Echo’s Alexa vs. Google Home Assistant: One smart speaker wins by a nose – CNET
We compare hardware, software and privacy features to determine which is better — Amazon Echo’s Alexa or Google Home’s virtual assistant.
Over the past few years, Google and Amazon have hustled to round out their product lines, hone their software and clear the mess left by toddler-age smart home devices. The Amazon Echo and Google Home brought the smart home category into its adolescence. Feel free to shed a ceremonial tear at their loss of innocence over the years: Soon Google Assistant and Alexa will be getting college brochures in the mail and asking you to borrow the car.
