    It makes life easy if you know how to make good use of it. I can control the smart devices in the house. I can play music in multi rooms. I can drop-in and communicate with my kids in their room. I can drop an announcement to all devices. There’s so much more!

    We bought about 5 of these for about $20 a pop. Used them to create a housewide speaker system. Also used to create prompts for our kids.

    These little but powerful and at times incredibly useful devices are surprisingly inexpensive, and literally been Life Savers as our extended Family uses them to communicate and let some one know if they should need help!!

    I wanted to add alexa to the smart family and so far she's cool. I have added her to quite a few things and still exploring. Shes quite different from google and much cheaper.

    Great addition to our Amazon Hub. I added this one to my bedroom where I can use it for my personal things when in the bedroom. Best part I got it free with the purchase of the camera.

    My wife primarily uses these to call for ambient sound/music depending on her activities at the moment. It's easy to ask for music for working out, meditating, or whatever. We have yet to scratch the surface of all the other things they can do.

    A great replacement to keep me company in a new environment, the Echo Dot packs great quality sound given its size, keeps me up to date with news, weather & reminders as well as set up for keeping in touch with family members. In short: I'm happy!

    The echo dot is a great addition in my kitchen. You can set timers, add a shopping list to your phone from Alexa, make phone calls by voice demands, listen to music while cooking or doing dishes. This is the second echo dot for our home.

    I love how alexa simplify my life. Of course in order to get the best experience you need other accesories like an smart plug for the tv or light bulb for the room etc.

    I bought this thing for my mommy in law lol over the holidays we left out of town and she stayed home because of COVID-19. Well she fell and couldn’t get back up so she hollered at Alexa “call for help” and she was rescued. Thanks Alexa!

    The Amazon Echo Dot 3rd generation is equipped with Alexa. I can listen to my music, control my TV, hear the weather forecast and a bunch more helpful stuff without getting up. It's voice controlled. I love it!

    Great for the living room. easy to communicate and good speakers. the sound is pretty good for something so small. Can pick your music station to ordering off amazon. Very handy when you need some information.

    Fairly easy to set up. Works like a charm on my smart plugs, wifi light bulbs, and TV. Not a great speaker for just playing music, but given size and price, that should be expected. The only real negative to me, was if you want to change wifi connections, it is not intuitive at all. Kind of a pain. I also have a Google Home speaker and it difficult to change wifi connections as well. You'd figure that process would be intuitive and easy, but not at all.

    When I bought the Phillips Hue smart kit, this was an add on for free (same deal on amazon) but I got them faster. The echo dot was a great addition to the bedroom to give whole house functionality to the lights. And better use to Alexa. Happy I grabbed this deal when available.

    Good sound quality and size. For Alexa, I’d recommend for smaller rooms. For real sound get the bigger ones.

    This little smart speaker is amazing! You can ask it practically anything, and now the music will integrate with Apple music. So if you have a subscription, it will play anything in the Apple library. I also have a 1st gen Echo Dot and this 3rd gen has much better speakers.

    I bought 2 Echo Dots which I have in different rooms in my house. My parents use them to play music and control some TP-Link smart plugs with Christmas lights plugged into them. I have had no issues and I think the 3rd generation Echo Dot sounds quite good for a $30 wifi speaker.

    Had a little bit of hard time connecting, but I like it once it got set up. don't have to listen to my phone for music when I doing things in the house just ask her to play my playlists. Bought one for my in-laws so they could remember doctor appt. and remembering general things.

    We are an Amazon Alexa household. We have dots in every room and the bigger Echos in our living and family rooms. This is my first of the 3rd generation dots and I am impressed. Fit and finish are far superior to the older dots and the sound quality is so much better.
