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.

    I have 2 of the dots and 2 full size echoes. They are connected to my Hue lighting, Nest thermostat, and deliver music, news and weather when needed. Alexa has become a member of the family. Great purchase at a grest price.

    Honestly the only thing that this can do kind of well is setting alarms and timers. I got one of those thinking that I would be able to answers some questions but it never seems to know the answers. I recently had the chance to use a Google home mini (which is the same price as an echo) and I was amazed at how many times it was Able to do what I wanted. The only reason I could possibly imagine that you would get this over a Google home mini is because it has a headphone jack and the home mini doesn't. But even then there are ways of connecting speakers to the home mini without a headphone jack not to mention that you can't do a pretty simple DIY headphone jack for the mini.

    Fun Item to Have

    I bought and kept this Generation 2 Alexa because it worked right out of the box. It immediately connected to my 5.1 Hhz tri-band ASUS AC3200 router. It's a fun and useful item to have adding a bit extra automation to my life. (Not that I cannot do without). It can wake me up, makes lists for me, create reminders, stream media, podcasts & music from Pandora & Amazon Music, weather and other useful things I have yet to discover. What I'd like it to do is stream music from my NAS. Maybe later if the firmware gets such an update. I originally bought and returned the Gen 3 version, but it would not connect to my router after many, many retries. But the Gen 2 worked right out of the box.

    Picked up on sale for $29 to use in the garage paired with a Bluetooth speaker. My other Dot has been a mainstay in the living room for more than a year so it was a no-brainer to stick with what works.

    Alexa is a great addition to making your home a smart home. If you don't have any other items that are compatible, it's still a useful item. You can call an Uber, order pizza, etc. without anything but your Amazon account!

    I picked this up while on sale during the holidays. It is a great entry level echo. I use it every day. As an alarm clock, radio, information center, the list goes on. How did we live before Alexa?

    After getting the larger echo and seeing what it could do, I decided to get one of these (the "dot") for our bedroom. It's an alarm clock, gives the news, sports, weather, tells jokes, plays music, etc. Fun & functional.
