    Use everyday. Use all the time. Small enough to “hide” behind picture frame. I use all around. Love it.

    It does what it's supposed to do. Came free with TV so I can't comment on value. I use it as an extra speaker because I already have a few other alexa devices & they all have screens. Intigrates as well as the others & works as well, just doesnt have the visual features or as good as a speaker as the more expensive stuff, as expected of course

    This is a nice upgrade from the 2nd generation echo dot. It’s a little bigger and it’s louder. It’s nice looking as well.

    I just love my echo dot. Alexa can answer any question you may ask. Plays songs, tell her what song you want to hear, and she plays it. Tells the weather, answer trivial questions, and do many other things. I like that she has voice recognition, and will respond to just the voices you want her to.

    I love my echo dot and have it hooked up Bluetooth wirelessly to my projector tv and all my Alexa compatible devices with ease! Also, all I have to do is tell Alexa to control all my devices and components with whatever command I need her to do to them!

    Seems buggy at times

    I've had the 2nd gen dot for a while in my home and just replaced it with two new 3rd gen dots. one in the living room and one in the bedroom. The device itself is more aesthetically pleasing and the speaker on this one is way better but my only complaint I suppose is that they have seemed to be a lot more prone to not working right than the last one I had. At times, she may not hear the wake word, other times shes way to sensitive. The follow-up command seems buggy, sometimes working and at other times not. Things she used to be able to control she cannot "communicate with" Keep in mind that these issues seem sporadic, sometimes non-existent and then giving trouble the next. These things could potentially be fixed in future updates though. Just a comparison of mine from my 2nd gen to my new 3rd gens.

    Nice upgrade from 2nd Gen Echo Dot

    While the functionality is the same, this is a worthwhile upgrade simply because of the improved sound quality over the previous version Echo Dot. The unit is not much larger, but it feels more solid and the sound is 10 times better. It doesn't sound "tinny" like the previous model and even has an ok amount of "bass" for a speaker this size. The only change I don't like is that the 3rd Gen Dot uses its own proprietary AC Adapter instead of using a USB cable like the previous version.

    I received this device free with a TV purchase. Nice freebie. Note this is the 3rd gen not the 4th gen with the dome shape. But even with that you are not missing much functionality, sound quality is the same, this model has a more compact design, you have the same Alexa features available to you on the 4th generation
