    I recently needed a new Echodot. Checked other sources and found a high price. Went to Best Buy and bought two echo-dots for half the price I found elsewhere. Brand new units, worked perfectly!

    Absolutely love the convenience of weather, music, sports and podcasts with just the sound of my voice. It can even make a grocery list, and has so many other features that I'm waiting to explore. The sound quality is awesome.

    I like the microphone on this device. It seems to be very smart. It recognizes my voice with pinpoint accuracy. It did not need any training and recognized my heavily accented English. Even people had problems with my English. In most cases it answered my questions thoroughly and with confidence.

    But I am glad it came as part of the package...I do have Amazon Prime and using this really is cool...I tell it to shuffle music and it does...ask for weather, it provides....and my kids love it. They've actually used it to get homework answers. I almost got the new one, but for not, this works.

    My daughter loves this thing! She said it brought her bedroom to life. The sound is really good when I’m working I have to ask her to turn in down. It is also very responsive and quick. It was easy to connect it to her Apple Music.

    Awesome little Echo Dot

    To be clear: I love Alexa, and love having control over the various lights inside and outside of my house. I have an Alexa Show and 2 other Echo dots, in addition to this new Echo Dot. I haven't really noticed any difference in performance, or how well Alexa listens with this new Echo Dot. It does however look quite a bit better, so I think that's worth something. Still, not really much of an upgrade from the previous generation in my opinion. Works great though for what I needed it to.

    This is my third Echo Dot I’ve purchased for my home and placed in strategic locations for my use; bed room, family room and work shop. I use my Dots for playing music, voice controlling my smart lights and small appliances, as well as asking questions

    The Echo dot 3rd gen is the only one I've had experience with, and this was my second one. This one for my TV room. No problems with it, and from what I understand from friends, this is the best version, even over the 4th generation that just came out.

    Bought one for me and another as a Christmas gifts for my teenage niece and son. I'm not sure who loves it the most, but we are all getting good use of it. We mostly listen to music, get daily weather updates, news, traffic, and set reminders. I also plan to use it to control my bedroom lights.

    If you want it just for asking Alexa questions or setting a timer, or having it in another room, etc. it can't be beat, but for listening to music, by itself, would be disappointing. Pair it though, with another Echo Dot, and it sounds pretty good.
