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.

    A great reward well received by the results of my mother reaction on Christmas Day, and the price it was to buy as a gift made a major difference with amazing results. I admire Alexa sense of communication as an assistant and being my mother personal assistant have help a great deal.

    I would rate this 5 stars if the speaker system was much better. I knew it when I bought it so I was ready to review appropriately and even considered rating it 5 stars instead. However, I have noticed that unlike the ECHO, the DOT is not as responsive with voice commands initially. But once the DOT answers its ok, until the next time you use the wake word and it does not respond for several commands.

    Cool concept, more responsive to saying her name than I thought it would be. The only issue is she does very minimal things, she can make lists and order things but nothing I would say that is EXTREMELY helpful by any means. The speakers on the dot are TERRIBLE in comparison to my Echo Show as well. If you are looking to listen to music through it I wouldn't get your hopes up, get a Show for that one.

    This is a really cool use of artificial intelligence. Amazon bought Ring and integrates it nicely to our TV. Each time I wonder who rang the doorbell or alerted our Ring, I ask Alexa to show it up on the TV and we can see the doorbell from our living room TV.

    Alexa has been a great tool in the kitchen of our home as well as the lovand my room. There are amazing gratitude to being able to just say Alexa and follow what you want. Heck you can even play jeopardy, catch up with a book or just learn a new recipe. It’s all there hands free

    Alexa reminds me ... take your medicine, meet friends at museum at 1:30pm, etc. ... a helpful memory aid! She also answers questions (performs simple research) and reads the news to me. I live alone, am getting older and I was a bit surprised at how much I enjoy this simply AI companion.

    It’s an amazing device but it’s creepy how good the mic is. Also it really digs into what you say and starts feeding you ads in other phones and devices on your network I had searches from my phone pop up in my girlfriend google results because Alexa seems to read your searches
