About This Video
In this video I upgrade my original Echo Show 15 to the new Amazon Echo Show 21, and I walk through the unboxing, mounting, and a quick real-world comparison on the wall. Yes, it’s bigger, but the upgrade isn’t just about screen size. The new Show 21 adds Zigbee, Thread, and Matter connectivity built in, the camera is moved to the center with a higher resolution, and the sound quality is improved compared to what I’ve been using.
I also test one of the most important practical questions: can you reuse the Echo Show 15 wall bracket and power supply? In my case, the bracket works and both power supplies are 30 watts, so I just reused the one I already had plugged in. I do a quick size breakdown too—while the screen is 21 inches, the overall unit is closer to 25 inches wide, so plan your wall space accordingly. It also comes with a remote (which was optional on my 15), and for this spot in my smart home setup, it feels like a solid, clean upgrade.
