Photos are arguably one of the most important possessions and one of the most powerful ways to enjoy the memories of all those people, places, and moments that have mattered most to us in a lifetime. However, in this day and age, photos are typically kept on phones after being taken, with digital picture frames taking on the job of displaying them within homes, and Amazon is introducing its latest Alexa Photo Frame as a simpler way to share those memories. It joins a feature-packed lineup of new devices that you can browse in full below.

The new Amazon Alexa Photo Frame brings along the elegance of a traditional physical photo frame and combines it with the intelligence of its Alexa system. It’ the only one of its kind, with Alexa built right into its operating functionality, closely integrating it with Amazon Photos, complete with free unlimited storage for Prime members.

You’ll be able to select specific people of albums to prominently display, as well as automatically sync your photos with the frame so freshly taken ones appear instantly. Likewise, this is also a nice way to gift memories to your loved one’s frame, ensuring the experiences are never buried amongst your phone’s library.

Every aspect of this new device and its operation is designed for always making pictures look their absolute best. There’s is a high-definition 10-inch touch display, which has a semi-matte, anti-glare finish that takes basic digital photos and makes them feel like physical prints. You’ll be able to enjoy them from any angle, especially throughout the day as the sun moves, as the light sensing here automatically adjusts the brightness as time transitions from day into night.

This is a far smarter means to enjoy your cherished memories, with it being easy to use for all these features:

See your best photos: Alexa+ intelligently picks the best pictures to show based on faces, time, and sentiment. It knows to choose photos where you’re smiling and the lighting is right, and it matches the season you’re in, so you see last year’s family Halloween costumes in October instead of the middle of spring. It also knows what to skip, like screenshots and receipts.
The latest photos, always on the frame: Choose which people you want to feature and new photos of those people will sync automatically as you take new ones. That means Grandma can see the latest pictures of the grandkids right away without you having to manually send them.
Find it in a flash: Instead of pulling out your phone to find specific ones, just ask Alexa: “show me photos from the trip to the beach with mom” or “show photos of the kids,” and Alexa will find them based on your description. You can also swipe through photos directly on the touchscreen to revisit your favorite moments.
Discover serendipitous pairs: Alexa can find connections across your photo library and bring them together side-by-side—like a photo of your child eating an ice cream cone at four years old next to one of them years later in nearly the same pose. Alexa looks beyond when a photo was taken to understand the people, places, and moments captured, helping you rediscover connections.
Bring memories to life with voice notes: Add your own voice to any photo to capture the story behind the moment—preserving not just what happened, but what made it special.

And you don’t have to expect to wait around for it to hit the market to begin enjoying, as the new Alexa Photo Frame is now available at Amazon with its Black colorway launching at $199.99 shipped, while the Birch and Walnut wood frames sit higher at $229 shipped.
