So one of the big trends in 2017 at CES is that

we're gonna see Amazon Alexa's voice assistant

on more and more products,

and one of them, which is really compelling,

is the LG Hub Bot.

It's available in two sizes, the big one and the small one.

Obviously, the big one has a bigger screen.

It also has more powerful speakers,

but the internals are similar.

There's no price or availability just yet,

but some of the advantages it has over Alexa

or something like the Google Home voice assistant is that

you can customize what you call this thing.

Right now, it's set up to respond to Hub Bot,

so you can ask it, Hub Bot, play my favorite song,

and that sort of kicks it off and makes it start dancing.

So there's some cute little animations to them.

The good thing too is that LG supports

sort of an open platform in terms of support,

so it's not just going to work with LG products,

and they said they're partnered with both

Amazon and Google to ensure that it can control

your entire smart home.

The LG Hub Bot, little more cute and animated

than Amazon Alexa devices that you're used to,

and we're sure to see a lot more of this kind of stuff

in the coming year.
