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.

    It's a pretty cool device. But it's not the brightest either. Ask Alexa, "How much snow will we get tonight?" And she'll say, "There is a 90% chance of snow." OK, thanks. Not what I asked. Then ask her, "How old is Jon Bon Jovi?" And she says, "Carol Bon Jovi is 55 years old." Who is Carol? Though that's Jon's correct age. So, she's kind of dumb. But the things she does do, she does well. Overall, I think the idea is good, but the execution isn't really ready yet. I'd recommend waiting until they improve and refine it quite a bit.

    I purchased this as a gift for my mom and she really enjoys it. I will probably end up buying the larger Echo for myself.

    Alexa can answer most questions but not everything. The one thing I don't like is that you have to plug it in for it to work, not mobile. Sometimes she does not understand what you say.

    This Echo Dot does not quite have the same quality of the Echo, but everything else works just the same and it is nice to have the mini-extensions in each room of my house.

    I really like having more around the house. Especially for music. Christmas music playing while I go to sleep is the best!

    I hooked the Echo Dot up to my new Bose speaker. The Dot works great turning my music on and off and its easy to switch to a new artist. Looking forward to learning more ways to use it.

    Bought one for my niece and one for my nephew. Now if they have a question in the night, they can just ask Alexa.

    I like it. Works well with all my Amazon account stuff. Once you try to use it with other platforms it's useless. I went and bought a Google Home as well to use with my other products.

    It's just another gadget to have. I don't have a prime account so really won't get the most out of it to listen to music. You can link it to iHeartRadio but need to be clear what channel to want.
