    The Amazon Echo Dot 3rd Gen was part of a purchase for a Ring Video Doorbell. It was a promo included with the purchase. At first I wasn't sure that I would use it but found out after install that is is very useful. Set up with the Alexa APP was simple and quick. So far I have asked Alexa several questions with quick and accurate response as well as using the alarm and asking Alexa to play music. No more looking up on the internet if I need a quick answer to a question or as simple as checking the temperature. I might consider a second purchase in the future.

    Easy to use, simple to set up. Sound quality is amazing and easily hung with double sided mounting tape! Perfect for the bathroom or other small areas!

    If you are like me and you'd like better sound quality than the small speaker in this puck-sized device (not that it sounds terrible), you can easily hook this up to a receiver or amplifier with a Y-splitter style RCA cable (it has a standard headphone plug on one end and the red and white RCA jacks on the other). This works perfectly, you just have to coordinate the volume between the device and your receiver or amplifier.

    As would be expected with any of the Amazon Echo products, this Echo Dot works well and is a favorite tool for the whole family. The Alexa app sensed it straight away and made it a breeze to set up. The main reason we bought this was to be able to play the same music on all Echo Dots in the house simultaneously, especially during parties. The functionality of this product seems limitless and we are very happy with it. Now if I could just get all my kid's friends to stop saying, "Alexa" every five seconds with a different command...

    My Echo Dot 3 has all the previous capabilities plus much better sound. Like previous Dots, it easy to set up. And, for the slightly higher price is worth it for better sound.

    Good music solution, buy 3rd party battery to make

    I honestly do not like these items, and have avoided buying for a few years. For the cost, they are quite impressive. Voice recognition and speed of response is really good, sound volume and quality is much better than a tablet/phone. I only purchased as a way for the kids to listen to music playlists without having a screen nearby, which it functions very well (essentially any bluetooth speaker requires using the device). Also, if you aren't aware, there are some 3rd party rechargeable batteries you can buy that make the unit portable.

    The 3rd generation combines the best features of the original full-sized Amazon Echo (great sound) with the smaller, more accessible size of the 2nd-generation Echo dot (that had fairly poor quality sound) into a package that is both compact and affordable, but can still fill a room with surprisingly good sound.

    This works amazingly, installation was easy and quick. Sound quality is perfect for a small places at least for 1BR, doesn't occupy much space. Overall I like it very much.

    Pretty much the same echo dot but looks a whole lot nicer. Does not take up a lot of space and gets the job done. Pair with a nice Bluetooth speaker and you have a winner!

    Bought for my nephew for Christmas. He likes setting his alarm for school and playing music to get ready in the morning. He’s only 9 but loves using it daily.
