    I have an Echo that covers my livingroom dining room and kitchen area if my house. I got this Echo Dot as an add on to some Hue products I bought from BBY right after Christmas. I have it paired to a soundbar in my bedroom which works great. I can now play music through my sound bar using Alexa and can use this dot to control my other smart devices from my bedroom. The speaker definately isn't as powerful as the Echo but it is still plenty powerful enough for me to speak to and hear responses from my connected bathroom or closet. It was a great way to extend Alexa into another room and I may pick up another one of these for my guest bedroom.

    I really like having Alexa. It is great for checking on the weather and controlling smart devices. It also looks good and matches. It's small and slim.

    Better sound than the older version. Design and looks quite better as well . There's not much appealing in terms of functionality of it as far as the amazon echo dot capability. One good thing about it is I got it on sale so no regrets. Just an addition to many dots that I already owned scattered inside my home .

    This echo device has a much nicer speaker than generation one. It is much less crunchy and it is much nicer looking. I even like the shape of the device more than Gen. 1

    Compared to the Gen 2 Dot, the new Gen 3 looks and sounds better. I use mine primarily for music and it sounds great. Can also be paired with a Fire Stick for audio.

    I love using Alexa, I bought another one for my living room. I have her add things to my amazon cart, turn my lights off and on, control my firestick and firetv, as well as manage the temperature in my house. It's so much easier and affordable to slowly incorporate Alexa compatible devices into your apartment or home than it is to build a smart home with smart devices.

    So far it's been good. If you want better sound quality, you might want to upgrade or go with gen 4. I have customized it so much, makes me speechless. I also have one of those nifty little plugs, so I plug in my tree to it, and say "Alexia, Merry Christmas", and the tree comes on and the Echo Dot plays "Rockin Around the Christmas Tree". I also have a Roku, and I can tell it to turn on, and it turns on the TV and starts playing. I can turn on lights, including the close detached garage lights. I've got more to try, but just after a couple weeks, I'm impressed.
