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 used it to turn on lights, play music, check my orders, make shopping list, tell time, set reminders and calendar events, check store hours. Wish it could stream music straight from my pc instead of through a pay service. Can only play 250 songs for free. If they ever fix that one thing I'll just like it even more. Got this when it was on sale for $40 and I had $25 in rewards so only cost me $15. It's well worth the $50 but I will wait for the next sale to buy another for upstairs.

    Hooked it up to a Bose speaker and the sound is fantastic. Even without using the better speaker it still has good sound.

    I love all things Amazon, but this takes a lot of time and effort to set this up to get the results you want. I wanted an Echo, but everywhere I could buy one was sold out, including Amazon. This is what I settled for. After my excitement to give Alexa the request to give me the weather, let me know what's on my calendar for the day....she was ALL wrong ALL of the time. Come to find out, there are other components that I need to download in order for this to work. Maybe one day I'll find the time to sit and get everything together to get this to work for me.

    I bought three Google Homes when they first went on sale for $29 this past holiday season and being the go hard Google Guy that I am, I am still to this day having minor regrets on buying them, especially once I got The Echo Dot with Alexa!! Alexa is much more helpful and SOOO MUCH EASIER to set up, ESPECIALLY with home automation and devices, compared to The Google Home Mini.. Now my only TRUE regret? Not buying more Echo Dot's during the holiday promotions!
