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 does a lot of things. I had previously purchased the Google home but was upset with it's limited capabilities. This one does tasks, turns on my lights, plays my music and turns off the music, I just want more smart things. I'm slowly but surely adding new things

    My 2nd Echo

    This is my 2nd Echo that I've purchased. My first one (the taller, original model) has been a staple of my home life since first opening it. I bought this dot for my parents because I wasn't 100% sure they would be into it, so I went with the cheaper model. They, like me, have also been using it every day even though they are slow to technology. While the dot has a less powerful speaker than my bigger unit, at roughly $100 less, there's a ton of value. My parents think it's just fine. Between timers in the kitchen, to playing music, to weather reports the dot is amazingly useful! I can't recommend the Echo line of devices enough! Of course, it really shines when you have Amazon Prime (which we do). I've gotten to the point that in my car and office I find myself attempting to ask a question only to realize the Echo is, to my dismay, not with me. Once you get used to it, it's hard to live without it!

    The setup process is not too difficult. If you are using your phone and its a Samsung, please make sure you turn off "Smart network switch" before proceeding. The volume is decent but its abilities are lacking; I just wish it was slightly more comprehensive like Google's offering, but for the price its not bad. I am glad however, Amazon is constantly updating Alex's ability.

    I already had a couple of these and my mom purchased an Echo. She paid too much for it at a competitor. I told her send it back and I would bring her a Dot. It does basically all the Echo does. She loves it!! Big Hit with her and at a great price. Thanks Best Buy!

    Our family has had so much fun with this. Not only is Alexa informative, but very entertaining & helpful. So easy to use & gets "smarter" every time you use it. I'll be adding more Skills now that I've gotten acquainted with how the Echo Dot works. LOVE LOVE LOVE!
