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.

    All aspects seem to work fine. Not used enough to justify price. Must have been an impulse buy.

    Nice, but like the Echo

    I bought the Dot and several Echos. Both are great with the difference being the nice speaker in the Echo. If you are using the Dot for a room, such as a bedroom, the Dot is fine. I bought the Dot for my father who has difficulty hearing and the volume is not quite enough for him unless there is no other noise. Otherwise the Dot is just as good as the Echo.

    for 50 dollars you can get the Jr. version of Alexa which is the very same as the Mama version --- except for the speaker --- WHICH you can add your own ! I was undecided between this or the Google produc so I gave it a whirl and we love ALEXA !!

    I was somewhat reluctant to purchase one of these due to privacy concerns but decided to give it a try. It was very easy to setup. The main reason I chose this was because of the speaker aux attachment availability. Very satisfied so far.

    This is a nice addition to the Amazon Echo. I am glad that you don't have to buy another whole unit to utilize the Alexa feature. You do have to push a button on the Dot unlike the Echo where all you have to do is say Alexa and it wakes the Echo up.

    I use my Alexa for everything. It’s great as an alarm clock. My only con is that it doesn’t have that many celebrities for an alarm. It also doesn’t have Houston mix 95.5 to listen on the radio or as an alarm clock.

    Just got the echo dot, so far it’s been good. Love that it reads the news to you in the morning. You can set an alarm to wake you. I’m sure there’s more to it, it’s just taking me longer to get it sorted out. So far I like it!
