I put some of my favorite things in the app like football teams or music artists and then ask “Alexa what’s my favorite team? And the answer is hmmmm I don’t know that one”It will tell me the weather though so I guess my $70 was well spent. I tried to say remind me of a doctors appointment in 4 days and I double check and she sees no upcoming appointments. Maybe I don’t understand its purpose, I don’t know. I do get a lot of Beetlejuice silliness so I guess I got my moneys worth!

I purchased this in June of 2023 and now it’s unable to connect to the internet and other problems. How do they sell Alexa when it is made to fail after 14 months. Super disappointed

I checked the product comparisons and this model listed that it featured an LED clock which is the whole reason I bought two of these- for my kids’ bedrooms. Ugh!!

First I want to say that the set up was very easy like all of the Echo devices we have bought in the past. We have 2 Echo Shows (Ist Gen) and 2 Echo Dots (2nd Gen). We wanted to upgrade the Dot we had in our living room that is hooked up to my quality speakers and Turntable. Unfortunately, the new Echo devices come WITHOUT an AUX jack so you cannot hook them up to speakers unless it's Bluetooth and I don't want to rely on Bluetooth for a good connection. I believe this was a huge mistake Amazon did to the Echo devices. The speaker quality is absolutely dreadful if you want to listen to any type of music loud. We put it on volume 7 and the sound was going in and out with the loud parts of the song. It would however, work well for audiobooks or podcasts. Again, audiobooks and podcasts=A. Music=F. I hope you find this review helpful. Back to the ole 2nd Gen Echo Dot for us!
