    If you wanna play with the whole Alexa feature for Amazon but don't want the price of the larger one, this little device is great. Still learning all the cool tricks.

    The Dot seems pretty good value at the current $50 and does most simple things well. Bought it largely to play with voice technology and it does a good job of connecting to internet radio and then playing through my TV's sound bar. The Dot's own speaker is a bit of a compromise but fine for voice. That presumably is one of the main differences between the Dot and the larger much more expensive Echo range products. Pleased so far.

    The Amazon Echo Dot (2nd Generation) is a small, cylindrical smart speaker with Alexa built-in. It's a great option for anyone who wants to get started with the world of voice-activated assistants. The Echo Dot is very easy to set up. Just plug it in, connect it to your Wi-Fi network, and follow the instructions in the Alexa app. Once it's set up, you can start using Alexa to control your music, get news and weather updates, set alarms, and more. The Echo Dot has a decent sound quality for its size. It's not going to blow you away, but it's good enough for listening to music or podcasts in the kitchen or bedroom. If you're looking for a speaker with better sound quality, you'll want to consider the Echo or Echo Plus. One of the best things about the Echo Dot is its price. It's very affordable, making it a great option for anyone who wants to try out a smart speaker without spending a lot of money. Here are some specific pros and cons of the Amazon Echo Dot (2nd Generation): **Pros:** * Affordable * Easy to set up * Great sound quality for its size * Compatible with a wide range of Alexa skills * Can be used to control smart home devices **Cons:** * Not as powerful as the Echo or Echo Plus * Doesn't have a built-in speakerphone * Can be a bit too loud for some people Overall, I think the Amazon Echo Dot (2nd Generation) is a great smart speaker for the price. It's easy to use, has a decent sound quality, and is compatible with a wide range of Alexa skills. If you're looking for a smart speaker to get started with Alexa, the Echo Dot is a great option. Here are some additional things to consider when purchasing the Amazon Echo Dot (2nd Generation): * Make sure it's compatible with your Wi-Fi network. The Echo Dot requires a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. If you have a 5GHz Wi-Fi network, you'll need to make sure your router supports dual-band Wi-Fi. * Decide if you want a white or black Echo Dot. The Echo Dot is available in two colors: white and black. The white Echo Dot is more popular, but the black Echo Dot is also a good option. * Consider purchasing an Echo Dot bundle. Amazon often offers bundles that include the Echo Dot, a smart plug, and a light bulb. These bundles are a great way to save money and get started with your smart home.

    I bought this around the time I started hearing reports of people having their conversations sent to other people. I'm not particularly happy about the idea of this thing recording me without my knowledge, so I pretty much keep it unplugged at all times, which sort of defeats the purpose. At this point, I'm not sure what to do with it, other than to plug it in whenever I want to listen to music and won't be able to change the songs with my hands.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
