    My "Alexa" is awesome! It helps me out with a lot of tasks such as looking up information, scheduling appointments, setting up reminders, and lots of other thing. Love it!

    I’ve resisted the urge to get one of these but got this for free with my ring purchase. It works great for controlling my lights, music, etc and was so simple to setup.

    Cool Device but edged out a bit by the Google Mini

    The Amazon Echo (3rd Gen) is a cool device to own and use. It can do fun things that the Google Mini is not seemingly readily equipped for yet. Like the Mini, these smart devices are constantly learning and their expandability is quite immense. I like how a free app may be downloaded into one's mobile device that allows a user to customize Alexa. Since I'm an Android / Google fan, I find that the Google Mini edges out the Echo Dot in the sense that it is easier to make sense of how Google Mini works and how it may be linked to other Android / Google-based devices such as the Google Chrome. Overall, buying either device will be pleasing if you want to own a smart speaker. Just beware that owning / using a smart speaker may also be compromising your privacy a bit given their open microphones. Fortunately, these mics may be manually shut off easily by a switch located outside of each of the two devices.

    What to say about an Alexa...? First, the sound on this is pretty darn good for such a small speaker. Second, Alexa is a VERY handy tool that can connect to everything from your Google account (reads emails, adds to your calendar, etc.) to scores of "skills" that you can enable. Take some time on the website for Alexa and start scrolling through its abilities that you can activate. It's really pretty impressive.

    Alexa can work you thermostats, check the weather, just about anything you want to ask her. Thinking about moving it to bedroom to play soundscapes to sleep to and use as an alarm and clock.

    I find the sound quality excellent for what it is. Very convenient, say what you wish and it does it, close to being like a genie in a bottle, but more wishes.

    I was not real sure I would use the echo very much - but I actually have, everyday now. Listen to music while I’m busy around the house or cooking. Nice product and fun to use.
