Amazon’s 2020 hardware event: all of the news and announcements

Amazon is hosting its annual hardware event on Thursday, September 24th, at 1PM ET / 10AM PT, where we expect it to announce a bunch of gadgets. It won&rsquo;t be live-streamed, so, unfortunately, we can&rsquo;t all watch together. But The Verge&rsquo;s Dieter Bohn will be handling the live blog to cover the minute-to-minute announcements. We&rsquo;ll be adding all of the latest announcements and news to this post.
As for what to expect, there will likely be some brand-new entries in the Echo family of devices &mdash; or at least some upgrades. To that end, most of what we&rsquo;ll see will likely center on smart home tech and Alexa. It also wouldn&rsquo;t be too surprising if several of the companies under Amazon&rsquo;s umbrella, like Ring and Eero, have a few announcements to share. Though, if it&rsquo;s like last year&rsquo;s event where we saw Echo Frames glasses, the Echo Loop ring, and Echo Buds headphones, Amazon probably has a few experimental tricks up its sleeve.
