    It´s so difficult to access your music if you don't have premiums account for example Spotify ... The previous version was better than this act.

    Compared this with the Google home mini, I think Google is better and more accurate. On the other side, the echo dot speaker have better bass!

    I bought this echo dot with a clock to see at night in my bedroom when I wake up. What good is a clock light that dims out totally when it is dark and lights up when you turn the light on? The whole purpose was to see the clock at night, in the dark! May have well saved the extra $$ to buy a Dot with a clock. You can always ask what time it is, or set an alarm to turn off and on across a room.
