What can I say… this is an excellent choice for a bedside nightstand. Amazon did well when they developed this unit. No fumbling with your alarm clock or phone to see the time and for that matter the current weather outside. The functionality is incredibly cool. So many options to choose from. And the sound quality is shockingly good. I kinda think this is an Alexa dot on steroids. And the fit and finish is high quality. Would make a really nice gift or addition to your home Alexa system and Ring alarm device setup. It super responsive when chiming in and answering out requests. Okay, so the number one thing I can say is this. Easy to install. Just follow the prompts. But most importantly… being able to roll over in the middle of the night and see the time and what the current weather is outside. I love it and so does my wife. Easy peasy. You won’t be disappointed. I absolutely recommend this Alexa product! Thank you Amazon.

Review of the All-New Amazon Echo Spot (2024 Release) I recently purchased the 2024 release of the Amazon Echo Spot, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision! This compact smart display is a fantastic addition to my smart home ecosystem. Design The updated design is sleek and modern, with a sharper and more vibrant screen than its predecessors. It fits perfectly on my nightstand without taking up too much space, and the new edge-to-edge display looks premium. Performance The improved sound quality is noticeable. For its size, the Echo Spot delivers clear audio with surprisingly deep bass, making it great for listening to music, podcasts, or even taking calls. The microphone pickup is excellent, even in a noisy room. Functionality I love the new smart features, especially the enhanced integration with Alexa. Setting alarms, checking the weather, and controlling my smart devices is seamless. The addition of new widgets for quick access to my to-do list and calendar is a game-changer for staying organized. Camera Improvements The video calling feature has been upgraded with better camera quality and privacy options, like a physical shutter and customizable privacy settings. It’s perfect for staying connected with friends and family. Extras The sleep tracking feature is an unexpected bonus! Pairing it with Alexa’s wellness tools has helped me improve my bedtime routine. Overall, the 2024 Echo Spot combines a stylish design, impressive audio, and robust smart home features into one compact device. Whether you’re upgrading from an older model or diving into the Alexa ecosystem for the first time, this is a fantastic choice! Rating: 5/5

the Echo Spot Alarm Clock is sleek in design; really easy to pair with other Echo Devices and Blutooth devices. Setup was easy and Alarm clock settings had a lot of alarm tone options for free and some had celebrity voices, nature sounds, songs etc. I am getting older as we all are and I love having Alexa in the bedroom to make emergency phone calls. I also love that the face of the clock can be changed to include current date and weather temp. I can also opt to get a short weather report from Alexa after I cancel the alarm and am awake. Love the classic Echo sphere shape and access to all my music and skill sets. I also bought the holder made for this clock to have a charger and free up a electric cord. Great Quality product, price and size/color options.

Makes setting reminders and alarms relatively easy but some features are complicated and work better through the app. I like giving it (them) feedback on the nuances which make or break the user experience. The sound quality is good and the volume gets pretty loud. It is easy to set an alarm while in bed in the dark without getting up. Its easy to ask when the next alarm is set for, or to change it. Its easy to tell it to stop or change volume. I can easily tell it to set one or multiple alarms but it can be difficult to modify them. For example, "Alexa, set an alarm for 5am to play a train horn." It will set a 5am alarm but will rarely set up the sound. When trying to modify the new alarm it will usually tell me it doesn't understand or will set up additional alarms instead of modifying the alarm I wanted. If you set 2 alarms within 15 minutes apart the first alarm will not sound at all which must be due to a snooze overlap conflict and the I don't believe the second alarm sounded either. I woke up late 3 times due to it. I often ask questions it says it doesn't understand and can't help with, when Google can usually give you something.

Absolutely love this product. Sound is great and I had two Alexa’s close to one another and they function well and know which one you are expecting a response from. This product is very durable, I have some dogs who play and have cause it to fall sometimes and there is no damage to my Alexa at all. Very easy to connect to your phone or someone else!

It was so simple getting dtarted once it arrived. As it was already connected to my amazon acount all i had to do was install updates and personalize the device to how I wanted it and away we went. Connected right away to the inter. It is sleak looking, not bulky and works well with the room it is in. Sound quality is great.

El diseño de este ultimo echo (spot) es increible, yo lo compre en blanco por el contraste del negro de la pantalla, pero estoy seguro que en los demás colores de igual manera se verá muy bonito. Hablando de funcionalidades: - Básicamente funciona de igual manera que cualquer otro echo/alexa, aunque puede variar una que otra cosa debido a la nueva pantalla integrada. - Las animaciones que se muestran en diferentes ocasiones (al pasar un minuto en el rejol, al poner musica, al crear una alarma, etc., etc.) son muy bonitas, puedes personalizar tanto el reloj con diferentes diseños (que probablemente con el tiempo se agreguen más) y con diferentes colores (magenta, violeta, verde aqua, azul, naranja y lima). - La pantalla es táctil/touch y por esto, puedes acceder a configuraciones rapidas dentro del mismo Echo Spot (para una configuración mas detallada, abre la app de Alexa), ya sea, cambiar el color y diseño del reloj, regular el brillo de la pantalla, bajar/subir volumen, etc., etc. Puntos malos: - El Echo llegó en una bolsa de carton con burbujas (al menos a mi y a varios más) siento que al ser un dispositivo electrónico, debería llegar al menos en una caja de cartón con mucha más protección - La pantalla no es un circulo como se podría pensar, es un rectangulo en el centro de toda la parte negra. Cuando está el brillo alto o al máximo, se notan los bordes de esta. De lo contrario, en espacios obscuros/no tan iluminados, no se nota para nada. Conclusión: Por el precio que esta en este momento a miembros Prime, es una excelente opción. Como se aprecia en las fotos, se nota mas grande que una Alexa con reloj (olvidé el nombre) pero no es tanto como para estorbar, el tamaño es ideal. valió mucho la pena por el simple hecho de ser mucho mas elegante, con mas funcionalidades y obviamente, mas nueva y actualizada. Seguramente con el tiempo se agreguen funcionalidades para facilitar muchas mas tareas. Compra esta Alexa si quieres tener un reloj digital, una bocina de buen sonido y volúmen y obviamente, una asistente para tus tareas :))) Gracias por llegar hasta aqui y espero haber aclarado la mayoria de dudas :))

Play Video El modelo en sí, es muy vistoso, tiene acabados muy elegantes y de buen material, el sonido tiene una diferencia de 3 decibeles más en comparación con el echo dot 5ta., realmente no es mucha la diferencia, sin embargo se alcanzan a apreciar un poco más los bajos. La pantalla touch definitivamente le aporta mucho, se puede cambiar la apariencia del reloj, los niveles de brillo y control de música. El tamaño es un 30% más grande que el echo dot 5ta., supongo que es para compensar la ubicación de la bocina, debido al tamaño de la misma. El voltaje de uso en promedio es de 2.5 watts con brillo máximo...ya en modo música vol. 10, alcanza un promedio de 3.6 watts, lo cual ahorra bastante energía para la potencia que mantiene! El modo nocturno es conveniente si te molesta la luz de la pantalla por las noches, la pequeña desventaja es que esta no se puede apagar en su totalidad, pero realmente no es molesto, ya que la pantalla tiene tecnología de ahorro y baja luz. (Actualización, ya incluyeron el apagado de la pantalla, se agradece muchísimo) El mostrar las carátulas de las canciones es bastante bueno, sin embargo: no me agradó, que al reproducir música, las carátulas de las canciones se mantienen todo el tiempo. Solución: le tienes que dar la indicación: "Alexa, inicio" para que nuevamente muestre el reloj. Por lo que, si de alguna forma te interesa escuchar música y ver tu reloj al mismo tiempo desde una distancia de más de 2 mts. Será casi imposible visualizar el pequeñito reloj que aparece sobre las carátulas de la música...espero tengan alguna actualización a ese detalle. En general estoy muy contento, definitivamente vale la pena! Por mi parte yo le daría un 4.7 en general. Iré actualizando si descubro más detalles en pro o vs. Actualización: -Añadieron el apagado de pantalla (se agradece mucho!).

La bocina Alexa es muy bonita, el color azul la hace resaltar bastante y la hace diferente a lo típico en colores que siempre es gris, plata o negro. Funciona muy bien, se escucha muy bien la puse en mi recamara y considero que el audio es el suficiente para el espacio. Y todo muy bien con las funcionalidades de Alexa. Muy recomendable.
