    We like the idea of finding the local temperature and the temperature for where we are going for the day.

    Easy smart home hook up, music sound quality a dud

    Smart switches and lights easy to connect, but novelty of a smart home quickly wore off. My one experience with Amazon tech “support” was horrible and I ended up figuring out how to solve the problem myself. Sound quality is a dud. And no, Alexa, I don’t want to subscribe to Amazon music so please stop asking.

    Speakers sound a little better than previous version. Also like that it has a temperature sensor, so I can ask Alexa what is the temperature in the room. Sensor seems fairly accurate, although it tends to report slightly higher values than standalone sensors I use in same room).

    The Echo device has a rich sound and Alexa is remarkably smart. The added bonus of a free trial of Amazon Music was impossible to activate despite calls to both Best Buy and Amazon.

    I bought two generation 5's. One worked perfectly. The other sporadically. It would unpair itself and I would have to initiate a startup again. I am hoping it's an anomaly and will correct itself eventually. Here's hoping.

    Enjoy listening to music on Alexa, not so much Alexa listening to our household conversations.
