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.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    Alexa is the first step to making our home a smart home. Syncing up with technology around the house and controlling the lights are just a few of the features we will be using!

    This dot was a present for the family. They are happy with the dot but it does have limitations. It handles common inquiries quite well. Things such as what is the weather forecast for tomorrow work great. Unusual or complicated requests often confuse or stump it. Either no result or a confused result are returned. Asking the boiling point of the element mercury confused it. This seems like a straight forward question related to hard fact that it should be able to answer. I have not tried the ordering option yet.
