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.

    Amazon - Echo Dot (2nd Generation) - White Great color for the bedroom. Such a nice thing to wake up in the morning and hear the news while you are getting ready for work. Add the wiz lights & wow your bedroom is modern - watch our Iron Man.

    I bough the amazon echo dot as a little birthday present for myself and couldn’t have have gotten more than I expected. But I did. Alexa has so many things to learn about and talk you. Just ask away, and Alexa can answer any question you may have.

    It gets the job done. It won't fill your house with sound, you don't want to use it to listen to music audio, but for spoken word audio, timers, reminders and all things such, it more than does the job. Best used as a second echo in your home.

    Decided to try the echo dot before going to the original echo. I was satisfied with its performance! I'm going to buy the original now! It's a great sidekick to have and currently looking to see what I can add to the house to automate with the echo dot.

    Dot is both toy and tool. It is loaded with so much potential that it will take months to realize half of it. It may not have the sound reproduction qualities of its big sibling, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in portability and manageability.

    I was happy to get the echo at a good price for the holidays. It was a winner among the gifts this year and I can recommend to anyone who is interested in getting one. They are efficient and very helpful on a day to day basis.

    Great way to find the answers to trivia questions, listen to music and turn on and off lights by voice command throughout the house (with optional wireless switches and plugs). There are many other things you can do with it that I haven't tried yet.

    It listens to you, but can be frustrating. It does things SIRI can't, but falls short where SIRI exceeds. Because it is always listening, it will activate occasionally without you saying the magic words. Ours even connected to a neighbors phone via bluetooth without us asking it to.

    Great. You may need to reset it every once in a while. Syncs well with the app. Expect ocassional ' Something went wrong. Please try a littlelater' Other than that, a great in-home assistant-weather reminder-alarm!
