Customer Ratings & Reviews

Its small so easy to find a place for it. Compact design, works well, has surprisingly good sound for its size. I would recommend to anyone.

Very easy to setup through the Alexa app, and the volume quality is awesome in terms of getting the right sound volume you want.

Extremely easy set-up and surprisingly great sound. The design in simple and compelling. The only complaint I have is that Alexa can be pretty dumb sometimes, but as she listens in more often she should improve.

Love the dot. It is loud and has very clear sound. I use the echo dot outside when using the BBQ and in the garage. It’s small and doesn’t take up space.

Much better than Gen 2. Used to upgrade and much more bass and gets louder. Very clear. Didn't think it would be much different but it is. Would recommend.

Very inexpensive buy ans good quality sound!!!!!!!!!

this is my 1st echo dot. i'm really enjoying it. love that it can play my apple music and update me daily on the news. great price.

Easy to set up and use. The quality of music and sound is very good. It's a very good gift that can be used in a variety of settings, wherever there is an Internet connection.

Great for everything! I wish I had one in every room. I love how I can set an alarm or listen to music. The kids love how it will spell words, give definitions, and solve problems.

This speaker is not a party at home speaker. After volume 5 it starts to go flat on bass. It’s a good speaker to have spread around the house to give quick commands.

Better sound than the original Dot. We use it on the patio for music and home automation. Looks better and is more solid than the original Dot. Works good .

The 3rd Gen Echo Dot provides much better sound quality than my 1st Gen Dot. Earlier versions did not have the quality of sound or volume as this 3rd Gen does. Glad I updated,

I bought this new Echo Dot with the digital clock on it to replace my generation one echo dot basically because of the clock on it. That was by far the best move by Amazon and the sound quality is very good. When asking Alexa the temperature outside, she also displays the temperature and when you ask here to turn the volume to a number, that shows too. I noticed there’s been some comments on how to make the display brighter. You have to go into your Alexa app and go to your device and you can set the brightness through that feature in the display feature. Now that I have a clock on this Echo Dot, I use it for an alarm now. Also takes up little space on the nightstand and looks great. I’m very pleased with this product.

Great product. Easy to set up. Reliable alarm clock

The dot is mostly fun and convenient. I give it 4 stars b/c I said "mostly". Not sure how anyone can think something that works most of the time, instead of all the time, is 5 star material. This is all new tech, so problems should be expected. Getting into an argument w/ Alexa b/c you are so frustrated the device is not doing what you are telling it to do (misunderstands command) only happens occasionally, but it still happens, even many months after purchase. I also use Alexa to control many lights...that is if the lights are still connected. That could be the light brand and could be Alexa, but every couple months I am re-setting up a light that is no longer connected to Alexa, which is not convenient, and convenience is pretty much the point. Overall, I am happy w/ my dots (have 3 and use them as intercoms), just don't expect perfection or 5 star performance.

I wanted to add Alexa to my house - I had one of the original Echo Dots and used it sparingly. I'll admit that I wasn't nuts about the always-on listening device. But I took a stab and ordered one of these and am very pleased with the purchase. The sound quality is much better than the first generation, and it definitely meets my requirement to play podcasts and have them sound "not tinny". The fact that Alexa can integrate a skill that links to Apple music is a definitely plus too. Bottom line, if you don't mind (or can get over) the constant "listening in" and are a member of the Amazon ecosystem, this is a great device for the cost.

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.

Sounds is amazing. Loud enough for a big room, or even a bathroom

This upgraded Echo is a good option for first time Alexa user's. It is Cheap, smart and best at listening.

Better sound than first GEN. Still small and looks just as good. Multiple colors to pick from to help it from becoming an eyesore Just go buy it so the government can listen to you
