This week on Techtonic, Joshua describes his first days with Amazon’s Echo, ‘The Woman in the Box’. She is far more responsive than Apple’s Siri, which disappoints us for reasons. On a good note, the Echo is showing promise and is useful for many scenarios at home. After Echo talk, Joe reviews his new iPhone SE. Why did he want to down-grade from his 6S, and what does the SE offer people that are ready to embrace a small phone?

Amazon Echo:
Amazon Echo, by Amazon
The Echo is Dan Moren’s favorite device of 2015
The rest of the Echo family that we didn’t get to
Joe’s substitute: AmazonBasics’ Portable Bluetooth Speaker
AmazonBasics’ Large Portable Bluetooth Speaker

iPhone SE:
Joe’s former phone: iPhone 6S (64 GB, Unlocked, Retail Packaging, Space Gray)
Joe’s new model: iPhone SE (Unlocked, 64 GB, Retail Packaging, Silver)

Joe’s preferred case: Apple’s MF046LL/A iPhone 5S Red Leather Case (Joe only uses cases when traveling)
Joe’s preferred iPhone dock: Twelve South HiRise
