Amazon’s Echo Show is one of the few smart displays on the market. And now, the Lenovo Smart Display has also joined the rank as a smart display with Google Assistant.
To sum it up in a few words, the Lenovo Smart Display is basically Google Assistant with a screen. It does everything Google Assistant does, from setting an alarm to showing you a video on Youtube. There are two variants, one with an 8-inch and another one with a 10-inch. The 8-inch smart display has a grey plastic cover on the back while the 10-inch variant features a wood-like finish.
