What to expect
Perhaps surprisingly, there have been relatively few leaks and rumours about the new Amazon products to be announced today.
The only devices we’re pretty sure of area couple of new Fire TV Sticks.
A listing was spotted on the website of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the US, which regulates the wireless capabilities of all technologies released in the country. It listed two devices, so it’s almost certain they will be part of the Amazon Devices event.
We’ve also seen that the powerfulAmazon Fire Stick 4K Maxhas recently been delisted on Amazon’s own website, so it’s likely that one of the streamers will be a replacement.
Other than that, we can make a measured guess that we’ll get a couple of new Kindle eBook readers too – for largely the same reason. Kindles have been discounted in the US recently, suggesting that a refresh is on its way.
We’d also be surprised if we didn’t see some new devices in the Amazon-owned Ring lineup of security cameras and doorbells – there usually is. And, although we don’t expect any major Echo announcements, there may be an upgrade or two along the way – to add Matter support, perhaps.
