Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Echo Dot (2nd generation)'s ease of use, sound quality, and small size, frequently praising its affordability and Bluetooth connectivity. While some users found the setup a bit challenging and noted occasional issues with Alexa's responsiveness or volume, the positive feedback on its core features outweighs these concerns. Many appreciate its use as an alarm clock and its integration with smart home devices.

    Bought this primarily for the music function of being able to stream throughout my house but it does so much more. I really enjoy playing Jeopardy the most.

    Alexa answers pretty much all my questions great wanting to set reminders asking time and scores and even gives a little history on certain questions!

    I gave this as a gift to my parents, they seem to enjoy it! You can ask it a lot of questions, and it’s pretty streamlined with other amazon services.

    This my 3rd Dot for my house. I use them for almost everything. I've started moving my house over to a smart house (smart lighting, smart thermostat, etc.)

    Great little device though it does not "hear" as well as the echo. The echo has been tuned to allow better voice control. The one positive is the ability to add what ever speaker you wish though that comes at a price. Overall quite satisfied.

    Expands Alexa Network, but A Bit Buzzy

    I think the Dot is priced well to help extend a home's existing Alexa network. Amazon should be able to improve the speaker in later versions. My main complaint is with a buzzy white noise sound emitting when the Dot is turned on. Could be that my particular unit had a one-off problem with electromagnetic shielding. Other people I know whom have Dots have not complained of the same issue. Overall a nice addition if you have an existing Echo -- it's just not as robust as the Echo, both in terms of feature set and dedicated speaker. I wouldn't want to skimp when creating a smart home network, so I definitely see the Dot as an add-on rather than a standalone Alexa gadget.

    We purchased an Echo for our living room, the Dot was a natural addition fir the kitchen. The Alexa powered products are a great addition to any home.

    I was thinking of getting an Echo, but when the dot came out, I bought it. I use it primarily for music, weather and news. If and when reasonable priced standardized home controllers become available, I may use it for other control functions.

    Purchased to use as auxiliary to Echo Plus & Echo. Adds coverage in areas of home where we couldn’t hear original products. They all integrate well!

    A fun tool for a beginner. If you have access to amazon prime or amazon music alexa is great and speaker sound is good on its own you really need to try and see what alexa can do for you -there is a learning curve to get the most out of it
