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.

    Right now, primarily used for music and checking weather. Voice control is excellent - easy to change stations and volume. Learning more about its capabilities every day.

    Easy to use. If you live technology this is for you. You can link your bank to check your balance. You can order pizza, check the weather, use it as an alarm and much more.

    Does everything that you see in the commercials. Sometimes it doesn't understand the command or mis interperates it. Sound quality is pretty good for such a small size. Music selection it very limited with out Amazon music unlimited subscription.

    Is there an echo in here?

    I'll start with the cons: - Background noise can interfere with its detection and accuracy. - Be aware that children should not use it unsupervised if purchasing is enabled - Reasonable as a speaker, not great. And so far, that's it. Pros galore: - Very responsive - Extremely accurate when not interfered with (by background noise) - Long distance reception: 30 feet and two rooms away without yelling! - Fast response - Fairly polite and communicates well (acknowledgements) - Fun when you're bored, still fun when you're not - Able to control a huge number of devices and has a wide range of capabilities

    The echo is a neat tech item. It is useful as well as being fun. It comes in handy when your hands are busy doing other things. It also helps people who are Aline because you kinda feel like you have someone with you. It is a fun and useful tool.

    These are great for the $30 price I paid. The Alexa ecosystem is impressive. However, if you are not committed to that, the Google mini is probably a better unit.

    For the price point the Echo is great as a tool for asking questions, using as a personal assistant for timer, scheduling and lists. Great gift for home and family use.

    Nice and can be hooked up to bluetooth, but really don't need to. If you have the Echo, you will love the dot...even if you don't you will love it. They work independently.

    I have 3 second gen echo dots and would have given it 5 stars, except now I bought a couple of the third gen dots and find them to have a much better sound quality. While on sale, I’d say pay the extra $10 and go for the third gen.
