    Dececco dad does a real good job. It does not have the clock and it needs to be plugged in for operation. The sound is really good for such a small unit. I really like its ability to go to whichever radio station that I might want to listen to. it also allows me to ask it to play a Casting Crowns or the Eagles or any group that you would like to listen to. Overall very good purchase.

    Dot is very convenient for placement around the house. Love the ability to just say “Alexa” and a command.

    This is a simple product like all the other echo devices. Works well, build quality is good, and Amazon has tidied up the setup process quite a bit. However, this device seems to work better with 2.4ghz bands rather than 5ghz bands. Not a big deal, but something to keep in mind.

  • Black version still comes with white power cable

    Audio quality is WAY better than 2nd and 3rd gen. My big complaint is that the black color still comes with a white power cord. This is a big oversight for a device that’s supposed to exist in plain sight. It’s also not a standard USB cable like previous models so sourcing a black cable is difficult.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Good so far, only downside on this model is no visible clock. All voice. One notch off for $10 more for physical clock.

    I have tried to use it as much as possible so far and think it's really quite useful even though i mainly use it to check the weather and set reminders, as well as control the few smart lights i have. I'm definitely pleased so far, though!
