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.

    With its sleek design and adequate speaker, i can listen to my favorite music and turn on and off lights with my voice. Amazon echo is definitely worth buying imo.

    I didn’t realize how much I would use Alexa, until I randomly purchased this on sale. I now have it hooked up to smart speakers and plugs, and use it daily.

    Best feature is voice controlled internet radio. Works for asking time, weather, sports schedule and scores . Keep questions simple. Requires activation of (free) "skills" for most topics Perhaps not as good as Google but good for the price.

    I had already purchased an Echo Dot for the family room. Far field capability is quite good for such a small device. No need to shout when you're not near the Echo in order to control smart devices in the home. Needed one upstairs in the master bedroom to control the ceiling fan, lights and TV. Alexa is pretty good on understanding vocal commands to control smart devices, but improvement is still needed. In addition, integration varies based on different manufacturers' devices. For example, it works incredibly well with Philips' Hue system and pretty well with GE's z-wave smart fan control switch. However, Logitech's Harmony's smart hub system to control the TV and audio components is mediocre at best. This is not as much a flaw with the Echo as much as it is with Logitech's failure to develop adequate software to integrate Harmony well with the Echo.

    The Echo is a great addition to Your home. when Alexa is linked to smart technology, she seamlessly answers Your commands like turning up your Thermostat, turning your lights on and off, and answering questions You may have. Bur her greatest strength is when she ins linked to Amazon Music. it is amazing You just ask her to play an artist or a certain song and it is played. never realized the Amazon library was so immense, she has played every album I have ever owned, plus new selections. when paired to a blue tooth speakers or sound bar the audio is great. for the money the echo dot is a must have .

    After owning both an Echo Dot and a Dot, my main concern is these nifty little gadgets can essentially replace doing homework that demands any thought by your kids. It's both a blessing and a curse. I just think it will be easily abused.

    Bought this device to test creating lambda functions and write my own apps. Ended up enjoying just having this around. Easy to use, setup and play out of the box.

    I had the original Echo downstairs and wanted something to play nature sounds and other music in the bedroom. This is the perfect little add-on to do so.

    I have an echo dot and decided to buy this one for my parents, Mine seems to work better even though they are using my account. When my parents try to ask Alexa something...it doesnt do anything most of the time and they have to keep repeating the question multiple times and then it finally works.
