    The Next Gen

    I already had a 2nd Gen Dot, which I purchased 2 years ago. I really wanted a Ring doorbell, and saw that the 3rd Gen Dot was free with the purchase of a Ring. I snagged that deal! I put the 3rd Gen in my bedroom and wasn't expecting much. I was WRONG! The sound quality is, hands down, 110% better than the 2nd Gen Dot. Plus, it is much more responsive. I have it on my headboard, and use it for Sleep and relaxation sounds. It's wonderful because I don't have to listen to my husband snore anymore. lol I also like the fact that it doesn't interfere with the other Dot that is in my kitchen. Plus, when I play my Amazon Prime music on it, and connect it via Bluetooth to my Samsung Stereo bar, it doesn't drop out, or lose connection like the 2nd Gen did. I will be using it much more now.
