“Alexa, show me Amazon’s best-sounding Echo Dot yet”. Meet the 5th generation of the Amazon Echo Dot. It’s the same dinky size as the 4th gen, but Amazon have packed in a larger driver, so it sounds louder than ever. Playing music and podcasts from the likes of Amazon Music, Spotify, and BBC Sounds is just an ask away. Alexa, the built-in voice assistant, is always happy to help – no matter how trivial. Get weather updates before you head out the door, add something to your shopping list mid-way through cooking, or set a reminder to get the kids’ PE kit together. Alexa can even tell you a joke (laughs not guaranteed). It can help with the smart stuff around your home too. The built-in temperature sensor will tell your smart thermostat when to tweak the heating, you can set routines to switch on things like smart lights, and of course you can ask Alexa.
