Amazon is holding a devices event on February 26

Amazon is set to show off some new stuff later this month. The company has scheduled a devices event for February 26 in New York City. The company’s hardware chief, Panos Panay, and his devices and services team will be on hand. The event will start at 10AM ET.

The event invitation that Amazon sent to the media doesn’t give much away. It includes the date, the Amazon smile/arrow logo and a tagline that reads “See what’s next.” Some swoopy blue lines are in the background.

It hasn’t been too long since Amazon refreshed the Kindle lineup, so it seems a little unlikely that we’ll see new e-readers from the company later this month. Instead, Amazon may finally be ready to spill the beans about the long-gestating next-gen Alexa, which it reportedly planned to reveal last October before a delay. The head of Amazon’s artificial general intelligence said in January that the company had been dealing with technical difficulties, such as incorrect or false results that tend to be an issue for generative AIs.

If, indeed, the next-gen Alexa is the focal point of the event, Amazon may have new audio gear to show off. As such, new Echo speakers and Echo Buds could be on the agenda. We might also learn just how much Amazon plans to charge for a subscription to this turbocharged version of Alexa.
