    The most obvious update to the Dot is the new look: it's as if someone took a 2nd generation Dot, inflated it with an air pump, and wrapped the edge in fabric. And it's not bad!

  • COUPLE SMALL THINGS THAT NEED TO BE UPDATED

    Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    All in all this is a great product but there are a couple things that need to be addressed. 1. needs a small battery source to keep the clock/alarm active. If power or Wifi goes out- clock and alarm are gone. 2. the plug takes up 2 outlets on the power strip. I believe this is a 3rd gen issue only. It is amazingly quick to wake up and perform requested skill. The volume is much louder than anticipated but does sound slightly muffled. Not huge issue but will try to continue to tweak. The product itself feels extremely well built.

    So the echo is a good smart home for the price that amazon puts on their products. Alexa is not quite as good as the google assistant in understanding you. You have to be very specific with Alexa.
