    The Amazon Echo Dot impresses with its compact design and powerful voice assistant, Alexa. With clear audio and smart home integration, it's a versatile addition to any space. Its budget-friendly price makes it an attractive choice for those looking to dip into the world of smart speakers.

    Great little gadget. Works great, just loud enough: plays music, gives weather, I use it all the time for timers when cooking. Love the device. Use it to play party music on multiple devices. Use it to turn on and off lights also, great product. Highly recommend!

    I got one for my daughter but everyone loved this cool smart speaker that I ended up buying one for the whole family including myself. Just use simple word commands and you can listen to music, turn off your smart light bulbs and even program the alarm to go off. Also it was on sale at a really good price. Everyone is enjoying it.!

    So far much better than 2nd gen Dot.

    Simply put - I practically hated every waking moment with the 2nd Gen Echo Dot. The mic never worked right, but forget even hearing my voice if there was any music in the background. The speaker was that of an early 2000's cell phone, which I don't use this to listen to music... It just made "Alexa" sound tinny and unbearable to listen to for more than 2-3min. The 3rd gen? I gotta say Amazon finally decided to put some real thought into it, bravo. (Even though it looks like a carbon copy of the Google Mini). At least the mic seems on the money each time. The speaker is so much better I don't mind listening to podcasts, etc. on it at all. Somehow the Bluetooth seems to work more efficiently... I've been told that's because it's using different, less error-prone hardware and protocols behind the scenes. All in all, trying to remove all bias aside from the experience with the 2nd gen... I would say regardless it's actually a pretty good product.

    Great little device for playing music or asking Alexa what the weather is every morning. I have it connected to my satellite radio subscription so super convenient to listen to my favorite shows. Also connected o Apple Music so have my entire library to listen to. Liked it so much we bought a 2nd.

    I got the Echo Dot (3rd Gen) as a freebie when buying the Ring Pro Doorbell. Made it all a great purchase value. I'm a little leery of having something always listening and keeping a record of it. But, with that said, I have enjoyed having Alexa play Sirius XM channels at my request. The sound is really great for such a small speaker. I may buy a 2nd one to pair it for "stereo" sound. I like using Alexa to turn on and off my Feit Smart LED lights. Limited use so far but I'm looking forward to expanding my usage as I experiment with this technology.
