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 bought the Echo for my SO to use for getting general info, setting alarms and playing music, but somehow we both expected a little more when it came to answering general questions. Still, well worth the $49

    I got this for my mom for Mothers Day and she loves it. It's a fun gadget for asking general questions and with a some minor tweaking can be very helpful for playing music, and ordering items on Amazon.

    Remarkable Technology

    The speech recognition on this thing is remarkable. I have a slight accent in my speech, but it was no problem using the Dot straight out of the box with no voice training. Even though Alexa is unable to always provide a response, reviewing the logs in the Alexa App shows that the commands were correctly captured (for example, what is the cube root of 63.83?). Range is good as I've been able to get Alexa's attention from more than 20 feet away. Alexa's text-to-speech is excellent, even if a little monotonic.

    We love the Dot. It's been a fun addition to our kitchen and living room. We use it for all sorts of things. The only thing that would be better would be for it to be able to intercom or text other numbers.

    Bought three of the echo dots for my grandkids for Christmas, ages 8, 12, and 14. They were so excited. They use it for homework, entertainment, and just plain information. Extremely good buy for the price.
