Amazon echo Vs Google home

Echo Vs google home, both do a very similar job but which is the better of the two. In this blog, we are going to discover what features set these devices apart! So, the amazon echo comes in a couple of forms, there is the full-size echo and the echo dot this is a smaller version of the echo. However, compared to google home the echo is not customisable, the google home device allows for the bottom section to be changed making it a more personal device.
Some features of the two devices
The google home device allows for TV control when used with a Chromecast device
Amazon echo allows you to order items from amazon
Both devices allow you to control your home using your voice
Google home allows for user customization 

However, amazon has one major drawback. The amazon echo is not voice specific meaning anyone can control your device and because it can order items from amazon anyone can purchase without you knowing. This is something that amazon should address as this is a massive security risk.
It has been mentioned that Apple are planning to launch a rival device this will use the Siri AI and will offer similar functionality as the other devices.
