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 love my echo devices and the 2nd generation is only better. Voice recognition is better and the sound quality of the small speaker is improved.

    Amazing Little Device

    I purchased the Echo Dot to see what it was all about. It's actually really cool. I wake up and ask her "How's the weather?" It's very helpful when making my grocery list by simply asking her to add it to my shopping list. I was confused at first how to play the games and different activities with her, but you "download" the different apps you want to install on her via the app on your phone. Everyone who comes over wants to play with it and it's definitely a conversation starter. It's also great for setting multiple timers for the kitchen !!

    Love Having Alexa around. She is so nice when I need to be reminded to buy something at the store or sometimes just nice to talk to. Really the Amazon Dot does make listening to music and making a shopping list that much easier.

    If you have the original full size echo then you know what to expect. This works the exact same only with weaker speakers. I think it's ideal for bedrooms

    Fun "Assistant"

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I haven't used the Echo Dot for very worthwhile uses yet but it can be interesting (facts, trivia, etc), helpful (weather, timer, alarm, and the like), and entertaining (tell me a joke, knock knock, bedtime story, play music, etc). There are a lot of "skills" that can be installed that I haven't locked into yet but I believe they can add actual usefulness. I also haven't added any smart home features (I don't have a cell/smartphone yet) but I think some of them would be useful (security camera, etc). I think this type of home "assistant" will only become more entrenched in the home and the Echo Dot is a reasonable introduction to this technology. It's not really wonderful but it's definitely OK. FYI: it requires a tablet or smartphone to use (needed to download the app ... the app isn't for a computer)

    Love, love, love. Although it doesn’t have the large speaker, the sound is still great for a smaller room such as a bedroom or office.

    Both of our kids have these in their rooms to use as radios and alarm clocks. Once you connect your amazon account they can also use many other features.
