Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought everyone in my family a dot for Christmas gifts this year. Very easy to set-up! I have my Christmas tree and porch lights connected for automation. I even added my work out routine with timers as a custom blueprint. The games are great too! I especially love the drop-in feature that I use to check in with the kids or use as an intercom! Alexa even connects to my firestick and controls my tv functions.

Happy with sound and very easy to use. Happy with product so far.

Great value sounds nice easy to set up would buy more

The Echo Dot 3 is an attractive, compact device. It's a decent speaker with good, clear sound. Where it falls short is where you need it most. 1) Alexa's voice is WAY TOO LOUD! More often than not I find myself just unplugging at night to avoid the temptation to speak the wake word and have her blurt out at high volume like some drunk girl at a party that's already wound down. As it is dependent on wifi, any command while not connected will prompt a super loud reply, like say volume down while using the bluetooth function to stream shows or music. Same for when it connects to a device. She just yells out the device serial number. I've tried to find ways to quiet her voice level vs music and I just don't see the option anywhere. 2) For it to be a smart speaker that is compatible with smart devices it sure doesn't seem all that smart. It still needs to be manually connected to other devices that A) that are in the same network, B) have Alexa C) Have Alexa under the same account... D) Are streaming Amazon content. Feels like 2008 all over again. The Alexa app is ok but nowhere near as intuitive as it should be. 3) Echo Dot 3 is NOT a portable, speaker as it has no battery. Maybe they're saving that feature for the 4. I've never had a desktop speaker that I couldn't take with me. There are however 3rd party devices available to remedy this. Overall, like I said, decent sound device. As long as you have stable wifi and the patience to constantly adjust the volume and to the situation you should be fine with it.

I love the amazon Echo dot. It has good sound for a small room and it was easy to set up.

Purchased as a gift. Easy to set-up and use. Great sound and works well with Sonos system

So happy to have this in my room for music, news, alarm and more.

Love the Amazon Echo Dots. The Sound is great. Super easy set up

Excellent Alexa, design beautiful, very good sound.

Excellent product, Also i baught an google nest and works pretty good!

What a fun device to add to our home. We enjoyed setting our device up to outlets to control lamps by voice. Our daughter checks the weather everyday before school, we okay music almost daily, and we have reminders to announce everyone's birthdays in the house.

We are getting used to Alexa for turning on the lights, playing music and setting alarms!

It is so easy to set up reminders, be it periodic reminders or one off reminder. Sound is much improved from previous echo dot. For web searches, I find google voice to be better.

Small but loud easy to use on any device no app needed

Great sound from such a small speaker, which is a little larger then 2nd gen dot.
