Product details

This popular Echo device is now even better, featuring a new design and a more powerful speaker. The Echo Dot is a voice-controlled smart speaker system with Alexa, perfect for any room. Just ask for music, news, information, and more. You can also call people who have an Echo device or the Alexa app, and control compatible smart home devices with voice commands. Ask Alexa for a song, artist, or genre on Amazon Music, Spotify, TuneIn, and other services. With multiple compatible Echo devices in different rooms, you can enjoy music throughout the house. Listen to Audible, radio stations, and more.

Make life at home easier. Use your voice to set timers, create lists, or add calendar entries and reminders. Listen to news, weather reports, or traffic information. Ask about sports scores, movie showtimes, restaurant hours, and much more. Turn on the lights before you get up, start the coffee maker on your way to the kitchen, or dim the lights from the sofa while you watch TV. Control multiple devices with a single voice command – for example, locking the front door and turning off the lights before you go to bed. With a voice command, you can easily call other people with an Echo device or the Alexa app. Use Drop In to communicate directly with other compatible Echo devices in your home. Alexa has thousands of skills that are constantly being updated. Skills are like apps and help you with everyday tasks. Play games, discover TV shows, track your fitness goals with Fitbit, and more. Just ask, "Alexa, what are skills?" Certain services may change or be removed at any time, may not be available in all countries and regions, and may require a separate subscription.
