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.

    After getting the larger echo and seeing what it could do, I decided to get one of these (the "dot") for our bedroom. It's an alarm clock, gives the news, sports, weather, tells jokes, plays music, etc. Fun & functional.

    Honestly the only thing that this can do kind of well is setting alarms and timers. I got one of those thinking that I would be able to answers some questions but it never seems to know the answers. I recently had the chance to use a Google home mini (which is the same price as an echo) and I was amazed at how many times it was Able to do what I wanted. The only reason I could possibly imagine that you would get this over a Google home mini is because it has a headphone jack and the home mini doesn't. But even then there are ways of connecting speakers to the home mini without a headphone jack not to mention that you can't do a pretty simple DIY headphone jack for the mini.

    It works really well. Would definitely recommend some of the smart home stuff to get full benefits. The speaker is very quiet, so this is best used as a secondary one for voice controls and less so for listening to music.

    Love the dot, just want more items around the home to control with it. I really want the Sonos integration which I have been able to program throwing together some code found on the web, but this would be difficult for the average user. It is easy to create skills and makes turning a room of lamps on and off super easy.

    We purchased this Echo Dot as a gift so we haven't actually seen it in operation, but the recipients report that they are having a blast with it. I can't wait for them to demonstrate what they have learned to do with it!

    This was a great deal on Best Buy online. The echo dot is a lot of fun. From playing music to answering any question, it's easy to use. You need to have an Amazon prime account to get the music or at least Pandora.
