Lenovo Smart Display
At 6.8 by 12.4 by 5.3 inches, the 10-inch Lenovo Smart Display is much larger than the Amazon Echo Show, but its rounded corners and white speaker grill make it look a lot friendlier.
Google Assistant
You can ask Google Assistant for weather reports, sports scores, news, unit conversion, trivia, and other general information, which your chosen Google Assistant voice will read to you while the screen shows any supporting information or images.
Recipes
You can get step-by-step recipes through Google Assistant, with readable lists and instructions.
Music
The Smart Display has some entertainment and media consumption options, but they're generally very Google-centric. You can ask Google Assistant to play music from Google Music, YouTube Music, Spotify, Pandora, or Deezer; watch videos on YouTube; and read audiobooks purchased through the Google Play store.
Google Cast
As a Google Cast display, you can treat it like a TV with a Chromecast connected to it and stream any video or music from a Google Cast-compatible app like Hulu or Netflix.
Google Duo
The Lenovo Smart Display can make video calls through its voice assistant using Google Duo.
Back
The back panel of the Smart Display gently curves into the pyramid of the base, disrupted only by a connector for the included power adapter in the lower left right and a gray Lenovo logo in the lower left corner (when in horizontal orientation).
Camera
A small sliding switch moves a physical privacy screen over the 5MP camera located to the upper right of the screen.
Controls
Two pinhole microphones flank a volume rocker and a microphone mute switch on the right side of the top edge of the Smart Display.
