The editors liked
Loud
Way more bass than we expected
Surprisingly cool design that grows on you
3.5mm jack on the back works as both input and output
Good value
The editors didn't like
Mids can seem a little lacking
While it may look like an omnidirectional speaker
It's not
And the back can feel a little shallow in comparison
There's no button to pause the music (only buttons for triggering the mic

Sleek spherical design, Good audio for price, Great smart home skills, Audio in/out port
I wish it had a clock, Audio not as good as Sonos One
The Amazon Echo is the most well-rounded smart speaker, and I’m not just talking about its looks. Yes, the spherical shape of the 4th-generation Amazon Echo makes it visually interesting, but the smart home networking tech and Amazon’s continual improveme...
Good build quality, Price, Loud bass for small size, Smart home compatibility, Effective microphone system
Round build may not be for everyone, Alexa app may be overwhelming initially, No YouTube Music compatibility by default
The Amazon Echo (4th Gen) is an excellent smart speaker for listeners who don't want to spend too much. If your smart home devices are all compatible with one another, you'll be very happy with this simplified speaker. Sound quality has improved over prev...

Good build quality, Price, Strong bass for its size, Alexa is compatible with tons of smart home products, Quality builtin mic is good at picking up the wake word
Round design is nice, but not for everyone, Alexa app is confusing at first, No YouTube compatibility by default
The Amazon Echo (4th gen.) is a great smart speaker for the price as long as you live in an Alexa world. If your smart home devices are all compatible (which most are) and you don't mind the new orb-like design of the speaker then you'll likely be very ha...

Impressive musical performance, Plenty of bass, Smart home hub built-in, Alexa wake-word almost never fails
Midrange is still the weak spot, Are you a Google household or an Amazon one
It's easy to assume the smart speaker wars are, if not settled, then at least established in their battle lines. If you bought into Alexa, you're probably going to stick with Alexa; if you prefer the Google Assistant, or Apple's Siri, then your speaker in...
Zigbee, Bluetooth LE, and Amazon Sidewalk radios onboard, Alexa can control a huge number of smart home systems and devices, Plenty of bang for the buck
The Amazon Echo (4th Gen) is a pretty good audio performer, but it's a great smart speaker that's also equipped with a Zigbee radio. I'm taking a wait-and-see approach to Amazon's Sidewalk network for now. It sounds promising, but there's nothing tangible...

As powerful as the Echo Plus, Strong bass for the size, Built-in smart home hub,
High frequencies don't get quite as much finesse as they could, Alexa can still be awkward to talk to
The fourth-generation Amazon Echo speaker takes the sound quality and smart home hub capabilities of the Echo Plus and puts it in a new round package...
