    I use this everyday for my smart home needs. Including lights, tv audio, tv control, smart plugs, checking weather, etc... Definitely an upgrade from the Amazon Dot 2nd Gen. I highly recommend. Also the british accent is so smooth and relaxing.

    I love this new Echo Dot! The sound quality is so much better than the previous generation and is more responsive to my voice. However, when I tap it to pause whatever's playing, it stops then resumes for a brief second before completely pausing. A little annoying, but I don't mind - love the color too!

    The audio quality is impressive, with deep bass and clear vocals. Alexa responds quickly to voice commands, even from across the room. I love how easily it integrates with my smart lights and thermostat, making home automation effortless.

    Purchased for elderly relative in a nursing home. 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.

    This is a good entry point for a connected home entusiast. It packs a good amount of power. I've had no issues connecting bulbs, spotify and smart tv gadgets to it. The voice recognition works pretty well even when talking from across the room.

    We have one of these in every room in our house and we love it. She’s my personal secretary. I use her for playing music. I use her to entertain the grandkids. I use her to be my calendar. I use her to give me reminders. She’s like a real person, you need this chick your life
