Works with additional speakers for boost to sound, compact and sleek design, superb mic pickup, easy setup and connectivity, plenty of compatible services, great price point
Some frustrations with understanding commands, no battery for portability, as a standalone speaker the quality is tinny
The Amazon Echo Dot is a brilliant, small and affordable smart home device. The Alexa personal assistant is currently as good as it gets, despite some foibles in her conversational understanding.The small scale does mean small sound, but the ability to ad...
That's the only downside to buying the Dot, though, and the rest of it works just as well as the full-fat Echo. It's a great way to add Alexa to other rooms in your home, allowing you to manage your calendar, shopping list, order stuff and listen to audio...

Small & unobtrusive, Aux connection for connecting to external soundsystems, Alexa is still the best digital assistant around
Poor quality inbuilt speaker, Physical volume buttons aren't as nice as Echo's dial, Cheaplooking plastic finish

Alexa still lags behind Google Assistant on certain things, Basic audio quality isn't particularly good
All things considered, the Echo Dot offers up a strong - and arguably stronger - alternative to the Google Home Mini. It's cheaper than Google's offering, and the ability to connect it to an existing audio setup gives it an added dimension of flexibility...
I would suggest the purchase of the Echo Dot if you already own a speaker, if not however then I suggest spending a little more to get an upgraded version of the device, the Amazon Echo...
Bright, auto-dimming easy-to-read clock, Inbuilt 3.5mm jack for easy audio output
No wall mount available (variant without clock), Priced a bit too steeply (variant with clock)
I got a chance to use Google's recently launched Nest Mini around the same time I set the Amazon Echo Dot up for review, so I had enough room for comparison. I personally like the Echo Dot over the Nest Mini because Amazon's Alexa is friendlier to talk to...
