7 Ways to Dress Up Your Smart Speaker

Just like we jazz up our smartphones with covers to show off our creative side, smart speakers can look snazzier with a skin. When your speaker works like magic but needs that magic touch, select a skin and have something to look at while you listen. Here are some of our faves.
