    These “dots” are the best option for low profile speakers all with the fun of Alexa and the entertainment that platform brings. Sound quality is great for an apartment size surround sound feel. Rich and theatrical. Amazon has me hooked. But I hate that the Alexa AI keeps asking to get to know me better, to recognize my voice. Not unless you treat me to dinner first!

    Nice but not as useful as Google

    I have mixed feelings about the Dot. Sound quality is okay until you turn it up a bit then distortion kicks in. Functionality is okay. It's interface with Harmony Hub is unreliable. Sometimes it works great, other times it loses track of the connection. The same is true of the interface with KasaTP-Link. It frequently loses the connection. We also have a Google Home Hub in the house. It seems to be more reliable with its Harmony Hub connectivity. Google also seems to be more user friendly and understands queries better than Alexa, I asked both when it was going to rain today. Google responded with very specific information regarding the times it might be raining. Alexa just said it might rain today, 59% at 11 a.m. I've also purchased the Amazon Echo but haven't opened yet. I may return it and purchase the Google product line instead.

    This is my second device; I own the 2nd generation and there is an amazing improve with sound and appearance. This one I use without any other speaker because the sound quality its amazing for a small room. Also, the voice detection improves the answer from Alexa, having the dot understanding almost everything from a considered distance. Besides that, all the apps keep working without any issue. Finally, appearance its much better with that fabric around the device.

    Set up was easy. Compatible with many smart devices. Small enough to use anywhere around the house. Have it set up with my Google calendar, music accounts, podcasts, etc. Looking forward to upgrading and enhancing devices at home to control and access thru actual echo or even my cell phone when away from home.
