Packed with connectivity to Amazon Alexa, the Lenovo Smart Assistants are intended to be a versatile way to help implement the digital assistant into the home or office with ease.
Set to debut at CES 2017, the Lenovo Smart Assistant will allow users to gain access to a number of features that are all centered on voice functionality. This means users can perform web searches, create lists, mark calendar reminders and much more, all by simply speaking the commands to the speaker itself.
The Lenovo Smart Assistants are designed to run well with other smart home devices from the brand and are fashioned with a demure aesthetic that makes them suitable for space designs of all kinds. The speakers are outfitted with 360-degree microphones that can operate from up to 16-feet from the user.
