Customer Ratings & Reviews

The echo dot is easy to set up and very convenient to use to get needed information I. e. Getting weater and sports updates. I use it with an external bluetooth speaker to play music since my main system recently went down. One thing the echo dot does well is put out good clear music for such a small unit. Only con is trying to play the unit speaker while paired to 1 external speaker.

The setup was very straightforward. In terms of its operation, the device has excellent sound for its size, great connectivity to third party apps and excellent understanding of what you say to it. Can't recommend it enough.

I Love this Alexa for the price and its decent sound. not the best but is worth it. I usually keep it in the garage hooked up to an aux to a better sounding system, it has access to tune in which is a free radio app and plays my local radio stations or if you get the free amazon music trial that's good too. I also have several inside the house and they sync together to play the same thing like a cheap way to get sorround sound in your house it sounds nice.

Took advantage of the pair for $50. We have an Amazon show in the kitchen. We use these in the bedrooms. They work great for info, weather, news etc. Good for music. As an alarm. Work with voice calling with your smart phone.

While this is larger than the previous Echo Dot, the rubber like material on top and the mesh wrap around is a step up. The sound quality and increase in volume level is what I found to be the biggest improvement... That said, I feel that there is no true mid level volume. My experience is that if I’m looking for that “sweet spot” it doesn’t exist, as it’s either quieter than I would like it to be or louder than I would like it to be. I did purchase two Dots for one room for the purpose of stereo sound. This is where I believe Amazon fell short. For the last few years, I have been able to use a pair of very inexpensive Bluetooth wireless speakers at the same time for listening to music from my cell phone & laptop. With the Dot, you are limited as to what will play in stereo and what won’t. I feel as if I have taken a step back in time with respect to technology as relates to this issue. My only other hope for future Dots is that they make them waterproof. Again, I have wireless Bluetooth speakers that I can attach via suction cup to my shower wall. I’d like to be able to take advantage of the smart home I’ve created, forged on the foundation of the Echo Dot when I’m in the shower, or anywhere there might be water. Bottom line, for the price you can’t beat it. Amazon has made improvements. I am hoping for refinements with the next generation Dot.

Amazing, connected to my phone super easily. I love that I can play music so fast without having my phone around. Also, it understands spanish!

It’s a great product to have in different parts / rooms of the house if you want to setup smart devices. Kids also have fun with this. Super easy to setup and like the sound with such a small size

Good sound, works well. Great way to get the weather report and add items to the grocery list hands free. I really like it ao far.

Great speaker, i love everything about it except that i have to keep it plugged in to use it. Im not sure if its just me that cant use it but LOL its a really good speaker over. very good sound and stuff.

Purchased this speaker when I purchased the Echo. Excellent quality sound when used with the Echo. Easy to connect and use. Quality sound for the entire room.

I Can’t complaint it’s great for affordable price. It is small and can be placed anywhere. Love how it can connect to a lot. Thinking of buying some for Christmas.

This came free with my tv purchase. Really happy with its functionality and ease of use. The speakers on this are really good!

Another highly useful piece of tech that goes well with my WiFi items in my place. Easy to set up and use in less then 15 minutes. After that just download the apps echo need on the smartphone to hookup with other WiFi items.

I bought this for a white elephant event gift for the holidays and the person who got it tells me that it is a great addition to the home its loud enough to hear from across the house and very easy to set up.

I loved my second generation echo dots but the third generation ones really stepped up the volume. It understands what I'm saying 100% of the time even if the volume is loud. So much better than the Google Home Minis I have.

I purchased this for my nephew for his birthday. He’s so amazed by Alexa and the voice recognition. I have one myself and I’m pretty impressed with it as well! Setup was nice and seamless.

I'm very pleased with the echo dot. Very easy to use and the sound is just what I'd been hunting for . The price was very reasonable for such a nice gadget. I would purchase another one .

I love it! Alexa will read me a story or tell Samuel l Jackson to tell me a joke! ( Download of Sam Jackson's voice skill req'd) Alexa can turn off my smart light bulbs or change the color to whichever color I feel like requesting! How cool is that? I bought several to give as Christmas gifts and I'm sure the recipients will love this device as much as I do!

This is really great really exciting it tells me everything even when my packages are being delivered at times it's like having another person in the house to remind you things and to turn things on for you I love it

Love it! We put it in the window sill when we sit outside, giving commands through the window screen, hands free. Alexa plays the music we love for hours. Great little gadget!
