Starting May 13, Echo Show 15 and 21 users with Alexa+ can browse the full Amazon store on-device, including product pages, storefronts, reviews and checkout.
The rollout replaces the displays' earlier limited shopping mode with a web-like interface that also lets users switch payment methods, change delivery addresses and complete purchases.
