Alexa
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently started using the Alexa Echo Dot, and I have to say I’m really impressed. Despite its small size, the sound is clear and surprisingly powerful. I love how easy it was to set up and how intuitive it is to use. I can control the lights in my home, play music, ask for the weather, or set reminders, all with just my voice. It’s like having a personal assistant at hand all the time, and it has made daily tasks so much easier. Definitely a great purchase!

decent little smart speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Starting out with a few caveats: 1) no smart speaker / voice assistant is perfect, 2) many people have their preferred ecosystem, and 3) when that ecosystem fails, the grass is greener on the other side. With that being said, in my own opinion, Alexa currently beats Google hands down when controlling smart devices (though Google reigns for integrating its services like search, calendar, photos, etc). I had grown less and less pleased with my Google Hubs over the years, and long story short, I was eventually gifted an Echo Show. I was so impressed with its ability to handle my various smart devices when Google was failing to do so correctly, that I eventually decided to purchase more Echo devices, including this Echo Dot. This device does not disappoint. First off, the sound quality. Though this is a small device, it packs a punch. Bass is decent and song audio via Spotify is clear. Audiophiles may gripe about sound quality that isn't 100% perfect from a small smart speaker, but for the average user, streaming sound quality from this device is good enough, if not great. It's easy enough to pair into whole-house audio with other Echo speakers, but on its own it still gets the job done decently. The only drawback is the 5th gen Echo Dot lacks an aux port that the 4th gen had, but hey, if we're comparing this to a Google Nest Mini, Google doesn't use aux ports at all. Voice recognition when speaking to Alexa is decent - again, no smart assistant is perfect, and errors in communication do happen, but they appear to be relatively few on this device all things considered. My biggest complaint would be the "By the way, would you like me to blah blah blah..." additions Alexa occasionally tacks onto responses, with no real way to disable them in the app. When listening to voice commands and responding, the Dot will glow blue at the base. When your Amazon account and device settings are set up correctly, this light turns yellow to let you know you have a package delivery notification. Despite not subscribing to Prime and ordering infrequently from Amazon, I still find this quite useful. Overall I think this is a decent device, and outpaces Google in many aspects. It goes on sale pretty often so I wouldn't recommend paying full price for this unless you absolutely need to, but you wouldn't have buyers remorse if you did.

The Great Amazon Dot

We plugged it in too to test it out and the sound quality is pretty solid. The Dot's volume was also adequate enough throughout the event to play music on. Great product.

Good to Use!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the Amazon Echo Dot and it has exceeded my expectations. It's a great example of smart technology that has been simplified to perform a single, specific task in a time when smart technology may sometimes seem overwhelming. The combination of a high-tech watch and Alexa's brainpower has made my regular tasks much more manageable and enjoyable. The Echo Dot adapts easily to my needs, whether I'm setting an alarm to gently wake me up in the morning or just listening to my favorite music. This smart speaker has seamlessly integrated into my life at home and become an essential tool. The Echo Dot with clock has undeniably merited its five-star rating for its top-notch functionality, sleek design, and helpful contribution to today's simplified lifestyle.

Just good
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speaker delivers clear and crisp sound quality, making it great for playing music, making calls, or listening to podcasts. It also has a built-in temperature sensor and can control smart home devices like lights, thermostats, and security cameras. The Echo Dot 5th gen can be controlled using voice commands or through the Alexa app on your smartphone or tablet, giving you convenient control over your smart home devices from anywhere. One downside to the Echo Dot 5th gen is that it lacks a built-in smart home hub, so you'll need to purchase a separate hub if you want to connect certain devices. Additionally, while the sound quality is impressive for a small speaker, it may not be sufficient for those who are looking for high-fidelity audio. Overall, the Amazon Echo Dot 5th generation is a versatile and affordable smart speaker that is perfect for those who are looking to incorporate smart home technology into their lives. Its sound quality, design, and ease of use make it a great choice for anyone who wants to stay connected and in control of their smart home devices.

Good for people with mobility and dexterity issues

She has limited dexterity and mobility issues. This device allows her radio access without needing to physically turn on or tune in. Have not set it up for phone use, but think that will be good for her as well.

Surprisingly good
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly, never realized how much I actually needed this until I got the first one. It’s a little multitasker - it can do everything very well. The AI is smarter than Siri (and I wish it was the other way around), it responds well and I have learned the distance and angle to get best results. It actually sounds really good - though it is much better in a smaller room. Bit of a pain to initially set up - not difficult, just a bit time consuming but once running, it can do everything. Almost. I have become so spoilt that even opening an app and clicking a button is just “too much work”. I love the voice commands. Now we have one in the kid room, kitchen, shop and living room.

Cool Alexa -Great Speaker

It has a great speaker to play music. It fits perfectly in my small studio. Unlike other Alexa products, this one doesn’t respond by normal household sounds (people taking, tv on) like my previous one.
