    I have not used this at all so have no basis to judge it on. I got it because it was free when I bought a 4k firestick.

    Been a great replacement for an aging alarm clock. My only con would be it’s hard to hit the right button to shut it off when your trying to be quite quickly in the morning. Have already had to swear at it a few mornings this week.

    The echo dot was relatively easy to set up but the audio sounds muddled, especially for podcasts or talk radio.

    I’m highly impressed by this device it does so much more than what I imagine it to do. It guards your house, plays music has an alarm clock can call people from your contacts connects to a blue tooth speaker ..........

    The new echo dot is an amazing piece of technology. It can be used to operate my smart home devices, play music over my Sonos system, answer questions and act as a timer in the kitchen. Do be sure to disable voice ordering on Amazon... nuf said.

    The echo dot does a lot for the price. I control my lights, TV, thermostat, satellite box and listen to music all on this tiny device. It's not perfect, you have to speak clearly and specifically when giving commands or she won't understand you.

    I bought this for my father as a Father’s Day gift. I figured this would go well with his Alexa with video screen he has in family room. This non video Alexa is perfect for bedroom and bathroom whet Video is discouraged.
