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.

    The dot works just like the larger units. I use mine in the kitchen for music and to answer questions about cooking.

    This opened a whole new world for me, although it promotes laziness ;) Looking forward to adding other related devices to “smarten” my home. I’m an Amazon devotee, so gravitated toward this, rather than one of the competing products. Have older relatives who speak other languages and for whom this would be an awesome convenience, so I hope they add support for additional languages soon, as their competitors seem to be doing (hint, hint).

    Amazon Echo Dot is not Amazon Alexia.

    The Amaon Echo Dot is the less expensive version of the Amazon Alexia. The Dot does a fair job of trying to copy Alexia`s performance. However, if you can get Alexia you will have a better experience . I know because I bought both.

    I'm just at awe with Alexa's pronunciation, it's a bit monotonic but pretty much perfect otherwise. It took a bit of fidgeting around to get it properly sync'd to my Amazon account, but after that I've been using the product with no issues, even if I had to disconnect the power to move the device to another room, it re-connected to my WiFi again quickly. My wife and I use this regularly, and it has no trouble understanding our different voices even without any training.

    Overall works great. We have it hooked up to a tap for better sound. Occasionally loses connection which is a pain. We installed some of the apps. Kids have fun asking Alexa questions.

    It is a great product, just setting up a little bit difficult since we have another echo in the house and configuration got messed up, nothing to do but to call costumer service.
