Amazon Overtakes Google And Apple To Become The World's Most Valuable Brand

Description

So long Google and Apple, Amazon is now the world's most valuable brand, according to a ranking of global companies. According to the BrandZ's top 100 ranking of the world's most valuable brands in 2019, it's now worth $315.5 billion, a 52% increase from 2018. Amazon has invested in new areas of business beyond its core e-commerce business, which famously makes little money. It is now leading the market in Cloud computing and home hardware (Amazon Alexa). In the past year, Amazon has invested into several different businesses including UK food delivery company Deliveroo and electric truck startup and Tesla rival Rivian.

  • The Battle Of The Smart Speakers, Amazon, Homepod, Google Home

    There was a time when the Amazon Echo was the only smart speaker on the block, but times are changing as Google Home and Apple's Homepod give Amazon Echo a good bit of healthy competition. As far as price points go Amazon may still be winning in the minds of frugal consumers. Apples Homepod which will be available later this year comes with a price tag of $349 a pop which Apple says is justified based on the extra bells and whistles that will make this speaker stand out above the rest. Features of all the Smart Speaker options include, streaming music directly from your phone or tablet, and popular online music services as well as having a smart assistant built-in to the products.
