    I have felt for some years that something like this wasn't for me BUT...I love it and am really considering a second one for my bedroom. This Echo Dot is so intuitive and so helpful around the house while I focus on other things. You can learn so much just asking it questions! One feature that I have loved is being able to tell it in the morning to play meditation music for me--that has really helped me to be calm and focused on my tasks.

    A nice addition to my theater room without taking up too much space. Still finding out more ways it can work (turning on lights, tv, and Xbox).

    I happen to think that the smaller size is much more pleasing to the eye and the aesthetic of the room. Beside, I have a great stereo system so I don’t need the bigger model.

    I love my Alexa. I got one because I’m my room had to be setup with a smart light system. It’s super convenient to have an Alexa. I have a hard time waking up in the morning because I’m a night owl and every morning I set up a wake up light alarm where she turns on my lights on a dim setting and I’ve never had an issue with getting up on time no more! I got mine on sale for a great price around Black Friday so idk if I would have paid full price for it but I definitely love it for the price I did buy it for! Do not regret the purchase!

    Amazon Alexa Junkie

    That's right! I'm an Amazon Alexa Junkie. At first I wasn't to hip on the idea of Amazon Alexa devices. But then my girlfriend gave me an Alexa. Turned out that I was pretty impressed at what it could do. That's when I went crazy & put one in every room in my house & one in my shop building. I've also started turning my house into a Smart Home with the purchase of Smart Plugs, Smart Switches and 4K UHD Fire Stick. This 3rd generation Dot is the one you want to get. Don't even think about buying the 2nd generation Dot. For 5 bucks more you can get the 3rd generation Dot with a bigger speaker that will blow the 2nd generation Dot out of the water. PEACE!

    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

    Love how I can connect my music accounts and then ask Alexa to play something from my music. Sometimes she is a bit slow to respond to commands; I sometimes wonder if I need to repeat my commands. She eventually responds. Love how I can listen in on my pups at anytime to see if they are doing well. Big Brother is listening!!

    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.

    Compared to the 2nd Gen Echo the 3rd Gen is a major improvement. Better microphone & speaker. Also the 3rd Gen matches the other current Echo’s with the cloth fabric over the speaker.

    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 .

    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.
