Amazon Echo Dot (5th Generation, Charcoal)

I have an Amazon Echo Dot 4th Generation with clock and decided to try the 5th Generarion with clock. The clock display on the 5th generation is bigger, brighter, and easier to see, but automatic brightness adjustment still dims the display in a dark room so it's comfortable to view. The sound quality on the 5th generation is a major upgrade from the 4th generation, offering deeper bass, clearer sound, and unbelievable detail! The microphones on the 5th generation also seem to be better than the ones on the 4th generation, as my 5th generation seems to have an easier time hearing me and interpreting voice commands than my 4th generation.Amazon also packed some fun little bonus features into the 5th generation with clock.

For example, when you ask it to tell you a joke, it shows a little smiley face on the display. When you ask it for the weather/temperature, it shows you the temperature in numbers with a little cloud or sunshine next to the number to show you the current weather.These neat little features make the device even more of a joy to use, and the cloud blue color is beautiful. I have no complaints and no regrets, I love this thing! :)Have a wonderful day and may God bless you. Jesus Christ loves you! You are precious, you matter, and you are irreplaceable and here for a reason! Take care and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! :)

I've used Echo's for years. This is a nice update, with very good (not quite great) sound, small footprint, and nice appearance. I love the smart clock feature that will also "echo" other information such as the temperature when you ask for the weather, and the artist and track when you're listening to music. It has a built in motion sensor that you can use for programming events (using the Alexa App on your phone) such as turning on smart lights when you come into a room. It also has a touch sensor so that when you tap the top, it will pause music or restart it. It comes with a built-in thermometer that you can also use to program events such as turning on smart devices at certain temps. the LED's will sense room light and dim automatically in the dark, so you ... MoreI've used Echo's for years.

You can pair them so they act as left and right speakers. This works VERY well, the sound really good in paired stereo. They will also share volume control, so changing the volume on one changes the volume on the other too. When two Echos are in the same room, they will both activate with "Alexa" but only the closest one will respond to the command.Recommended.

I got the Echo Dot (5th Gen, 2022 release) with clock a few months ago. I use it more than i thought i would. The sound is amazing. It does everything your phone can do for you. I love that i can add to my grocery list at anytime. You can call and text anyone. The alarm clock is loud which is good because my husband could sleep through a tornado and never know. The music sounds beautiful. I love that it give you reminders on the days you need reminded about appointments or when bills are do. All you gotta do is download the Alexa APP and youre good to go. You can turn on lights throughout your house or turn your ring camera on or off just by asking alexa to do so. It turns dofferent colors which takes some time getting use too. For instance, my echo turns yellow ... MoreI got the Echo Dot (5th Gen, 2022 release) with clock a few months ago. I use it more than i thought i would. The sound is amazing.

For instance, my echo turns yellow when i have unread notifications on my phone that helps remind me to read them or when i have a missed call. Im very impressed with this new echo! I love being able to listen to video's of recipes or even a podcast while cooking. Alexa even reminds me when it's time to give my dog's their medication every day at certain times. Alexa quickly became my new best friend!
