    The sound output on these is so much better than the previous generation. We have one of these in each of our guest bedrooms and connected to a speaker group throughout the house with other echoes for wireless surroundsound throughout the house.

    Love these things. I have several in my house. Generation 3 "votes" between them and one that hears you best responds. Can also be used as a intercom if you have several. You can also link them to play music in house.

    I don’t like that you can only play the device if it’s plugged in.

    I love my Echo Dot Smart Speaker. I play music, games, get the latest news. I can listen to podcasts, set alarms, and find out what is on my calendar for that day as I synced it with my phone calendar.

    I like the low profile of the 3rd gen. They are easy to setup around the house without looking to obvious.

    Good enough for a room or even your house with multiple of these placed around. Yet however does not always read your voice compared to the echo plus with it's 12 microphones
