    We have several Alexa Devices with screens, but having the dot is convenient as well. It’s small so it stays out-of-the-way, and there are just some places where you don’t want to have a screen (or camera). It also helps if you use Alexa to play music throughout the house, this is a quick and easy way to add additional listening points. Nice new look as well.

    After purchasing an Echo from Best Buy this was a must to complete the coverage in our house. Combined with the Echo we have whole house coverage and are still learning how much can be done with the Echo and Dot. We've added smart bulbs, switches and outlets from Best Buy to create a semi-smart home.

    I love this unit. You can talk to it and ask it to do anything like set a timer for 5 minutes or turn on dog light or turn on plant light, or turn on front porch light and also tell it to turn off all of these items. We have 3 of these units through out the house and each of them works just as easily as the next.

    Received this for the holiday's and was apprehensive at first. However, as time as gone on I have come to really enjoy it. I can ask simple questions about many subjects for general info, but for me the best part is that if you can sync to a bluetooth sound device (or using it's sad little speaker) and listen to any radio station anywhere by just telling it. One can also listen to Amazon music, but I find that I can access a lot more choices by going online with a device or computer. I do recommend the Echo Dot and would maybe get the Echo model with the better speakers.

    A decent sound out of speaker this size. Where this shines is the ability to be tucked out of sight and still hear when it's called to do its work.

    I was using a Echo Dot (2nd Gen) before using this. This is a little bulkier and does not just look beefier, does have a more power speaker. However I do feel that I Echo Dot's reception was somehow was better. For example, I was used to call out command / question from another room to the old Echo dot (2nd Gen) and it will almost always respond. This Echo dot (3rd gen), it a hit or miss. I am using both, and overall likes this a little better than the 2nd gen. Though I would not have paid to upgrade from 2nd gen to 3rd gen.

    Love this device! I bought this for my kids but I use it all the time, to play musuc, and ask alexa unlimited questions. You half to buy Amazon music subscription or just ask to play for instance KLove music channel. Its also a telephone, you can call your kids thru with the app.

    Love my Alexa and the ease of use. I tell her to add something to my shopping list and it's done. No more lists left at home and trying to remember what was on the list while in the store. I tell her to add something to my calendar and it's there. Love my lightbulb that I received free with my purchase.

    BestBuy's 2/$50 deal is definitely the way to go if you live in a house. It preforms exactly as advertised: Music, simple tasks, and info. The 3rd gen Dot's speaker is more than adequate for music listening. Sync and then place in different areas of the house and they can act as an intercom. Getting Alexa to work with different smart devices can be a little challenging because many of these devices require separate controllers or a `bridge' for the different technologies to interface. If you plan to fully unlock Alexa's potential and convert to a smart house, it can be quite expensive.

    You’ll be able to use it to control smart home devices, search for information from the web, play music, and more. But the best thing about it is how inexpensive it is. The design of the speaker is also pretty nice.
