    1. Good audio quality 2. Connects easily via bluetooth to external speakers. 3. I use it for the following: a. Flash news briefing from WSJ (Whats News), WSJ Tech Briefing, Reuters, Denver CBS 4, Local weather, 5. Can make phone calls, but Google Mini better for this IMHO. 6. Reads Kindle books, and Audible Books. 7. Provides timers and wake up alarms. 8. Plays "Sleep Sounds" Rain and others. Cons: Google mini seems to be better at phone calls.

    The kids had a ball with this and the sound is pretty good for how small the dot is.

    We've long loved the echo dots. But, we were hesitant to replace an old nightstand clock with a dot because we wanted to be able to see the clock displayed, especially in the middle of the night. This version of the dot solves that problem!

    It’s ok but I actually prefer the original ones. I find she is hard of hearing and doesn’t respond to commands as easily. Muffled speech too.

    Bought this a present for my aunt for half the cost. I like that it's pretty versatile on the demographics--you can give it to a coworker, a cousin, your aunt/uncle, or even grandparents. It's a pretty user friendly device that can be given to anyone.

    Got this speaker due to a promotion going on with the ring doorbell and I must say I'm really impressed with all the capabilities. You can tap in to a room to hear what's going going, ask alexa to track your amazon package and much more!

    When dropping in on calls you have to be real close to speaker and speak loud in order to go through. Other than that no issues yet.

    Love having this to ask questions, whether you're baking and need a substitution, want to know the weather for somewhere you're traveling to, just want to play music or need someone to turn on a light when your hands are full. Very handy to have

    The set up process took a few minutes but after that it was a breeze to use. We got it on sale and it was an amazing deal for a device that functions as an alarm clock, weather reporter, kitchen timer, Bluetooth speaker, and tv remote all controlled by voice.

    Love my Dot - it sits on top of my (white) frig and helps me with recipes and questions in general, in addition to providing radio broadcasts, news, etc. Although the more expensive Echo has better speakers for music, this is perfect for my kitchen location.

    Recently divorced and Alexa runs my life. She talks sweet to me. Turns lights on and off and with family disabled it's a big help since they can't reach switches. Been a great help. Plus nice to hear the news when your getting ready for work. ton's stuff todo with alexa
