Couldn't expect more!
|Posted .I already had three 4 gen dots. Sound is good fir size, but mot something you want to pit in your living room. I like in an averages 1 bedroom apartment. Living area is 19x12, so bigger thsn most. I knew I wanted stereo, so I brought two. I paired them and thought they were good, not great for the price and size. Then I went into the app and adjusted device settings. I increased bass 50% and mids and treble 25%. Big difference! Im extremely happy with the sound quality and the smart capabilities.

Kewl!
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This was my first Alexa home speaker and was disappointed at first, but have grown to love it. My kid gets a kick out of speaking with it and its very convenient for other notifications like alarms, ring notifications and just playing music. Only downside is that its not cordless

Outstanding Device
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.An outstanding speaker/smart hub device, it's easily likable through the Alexa app. The sound quality is outstanding and blows any other speaker of similar size out of the water, the only downside is that the audio is significantly lower in quality if it is only linked via Bluetooth but it's still good quality just better if it's linked to a wifi network. The equalizer is easy to use and provides ample sound experience and immersion suitable for any scenario.

Q: QuestionIs this all I need for a smart house or do I need more accessories?
Asked by Deb.
- A:Answer To do cool things with your Alexa you will need the proper “smart plugs” or “smart bulb” Accessories , once you get your Alexa purchase these and from there you will be able to turn on and off your smart bulbs , or turn on and off any device that you connect to your smart plug . To add you can also set timers and much much more with these smart Accessories ... if there is any more you would like to know about YouTube will be your best friend . Another thing the sound on this smart speaker is pretty good , smaller in size but has a great sound . Hope I could help .. take care .

Q: QuestionWill this work with Z Wave also or only Zigbee? I have several GE light switches in my house that I currently run through Wink and looking for an alternative.
Asked by KeepStupidPeopleAway.
- A:Answer Hello, Unfortunately Z-wave and Zigbee are two different technologies, and they are not interchangeable. This will only work for devices that use Zigbee technology. Hope that helps.

Q: QuestionDoes it require a smart phone to setup the speaker or can it be done via Alexa assistance. Blind person here.
Asked by petrogia.
- A:Answer Hello, Echos require you to either set up via the app on a smart phone, or via a website on alexa.amazon.com initially. Then once set up, you would be able to do everything via voice commands.
