    Why can't I just use it as a Bluetooth speaker? No, Amazon requires you to download their app. Then you'll have horrible privacy issues with the app and with the device itself. Read the privacy agreement if you don't believe me. Then you get it working and the sound is not that good. On a scale of 1 to 10, the sound is a 4 to me. That being said, this would be good for $25 if you're invested in the Amazon system and don't care about privacy rights. The microphone is sensitive enough to hear you across the room without yelling. The voice recognition works fairly well. Not perfect but that's pretty understandable.
