Overview

  • The event begins at 10 a.m. ET at Spring Studios in Tribeca and will not be livestreamed, with major outlets providing live blogs from the venue.
  • Invitation imagery points to updates across Echo speakers, Fire TV hardware, and a new Kindle, with wording that implies a color-capable Kindle Scribe.
  • Tech journalist Janko Roettgers reports Amazon may debut Vega OS, a Linux-based system expected to replace FireOS on new Fire TV hardware.
  • Coverage expects Alexa+ progress to be addressed along with potential news from Ring, Blink, and Eero based on Amazon’s usual fall lineup.
  • Context: Amazon last held a full fall hardware showcase in 2023, skipped 2024, and highlighted Alexa+ in a limited February 2025 event with early access.
