Dramatically better than previous generations at the same great value

Reviewed in Australia on 5 September 2019

Colour Name: Charcoal FabricStyle Name: Echo DotVerified Purchase

I’ve owned multiple first and second generation echo dots and the 3rd generation dot is undoubtedly a drastic improvement. The sound quality has much more depth and can almost fill a room while previous generations had a distinct “tinny” quality. Alexa is still incredibly responsive. My previous dots were paired to bluetooth speakers for music however this generation has adequate enough quality for casual listening. Bass response is still lacking but is to be expected from devices with this small form factor. An important thing to note is while the previous generations were powered by micro usb the current generation uses a dedicated DC power adapter which means it will take a space on your power strip. The echo dot 3 represents great value at its RRP and is even better value when it regularly goes on special.

Update: just found out the hard way that the australian power adapter is ever so slightly (about 1-2mm on each side) larger than the US power adapter and as such a lot of the mounting options sold online that let you hang the echo dot off the plug will not work. No idea why amazon would do this as the dimension difference is so nominal that they surely would have been able to fit the au adapter components into the same size as the US plug.

Maybe my expectations were too high, but the Echo Dot just doesn't seem to do as much as I would like. Try as I might, I have found the 'Skills' to be very little or no use at all. For those that have seemed interesting, the functionality either doesn't work or it's not broad enough to be useful (ie. it doesn't have many of the features that associated the website has). And Alexa, although she doesn't seem to have much trouble understanding me, doesn't seem to be able to find answers to questions. I have also been using the Google Assistant which has no trouble interpreting questions and reporting answers back....

Where the third generation Echo Dot excels is in music playback which is particularly good considering the size of the unit. And I don't always have to play internet music as by connecting bluetooth to my phone I can play all the music on the phone's internal storage.

I'm hoping things improve and I'm sure they will as I try more things but the 'Skills' really need a lot of work to make them useful.

Alexa, once groundbreaking, is now obsolete and disappointing

Reviewed in Australia on 18 April 2021

Colour Name: Charcoal FabricStyle Name: Echo DotVerified Purchase

Alexa was once groundbreaking, but compared to others, in 2021 it's now a sad joke. I was an early adopter, with several models including the gen 1 Echo, up to the current Dot.

It's frustrating. Half the time, Alexa does not understand me. The other half, it can't help. A request for a simple recipe is met with, "this feature is not supported". Asking for the date gives me the time, and getting it to keep track of basic kitchen timers, or perform unit conversions such as grams to ounces, is an exercise in futility. Getting it to control a Sonos system? I've given up. Maybe it'll play, maybe it won't. And if it does, there's a 50/50 chance I'll be able to pause or skip or even change volume.

Trying to get it to discover my smart home devices, even stuff as popular and commonplace as Hue, is awful. Alexa gets it wrong 99% of the time, and the app has the worst and most confusing interface.

The voice assistant on my phone is much more capable. The Alexa team have evidently let the world catch up and surpass them, and that is super disappointing.

Pales in comparison to google home

Reviewed in Australia on 12 September 2020

Colour Name: Charcoal FabricStyle Name: Echo DotVerified Purchase

Thought I’d give Alexa a go coming from google home ecosystem. At first it seemed ok. But quickly noticed that it just wasn’t up to par with google home. Many instances where it simply misunderstood me or got the wrong message. Stereo pairing isn’t consistent - works for Spotify but not for skills, or radio app. Asking for ABC classic FM, produces ABC jazz FM. You’ve got to adjust your query to make it understand. It doesn’t have contextual follow up like google home does. It doesn’t seem able to control android devices. Google is intentionally left out, which is a massive downfall as google offers so much. It’s hard to recommend this device.

Reviewed in Australia on 14 May 2021

Colour Name: Charcoal FabricStyle Name: Echo DotVerified Purchase

Got it for $10 on Amazon for a random special, and it's fine. Some stupid issue with Amazon itself seems to understand that I'm in Australia for shopping, but the Echo and Kindle insist that I'm in Japan (despite never visiting there). Never found a work-around to that despite hours of trying, so just linked it to my gf's account and had no issues.

I don't need it, rarely use it, and tbh only bought it cos it was $10 and matched the accessories on my desk. A cute little radio is all it is to me...because until the location situation gets sorted (a NIGHTMARE), that's all I can really use it for.
