About this product

The Echo Dot (3rd Gen) Smart Speaker with Alexa is a hands-free, voice-controlled device that uses Alexa to play music, control smart home devices, provide information, read the s, set alarms, and more.

The latest Amazon Echo Dot (3rd Generation) Smart Speaker with Alexa can hear you from across the room, even while music is playing. When you want to use Echo Dot, just say the wake word “Alexa” and Dot responds instantly. Just ask for music, s, information, and more. You can also call almost anyone and control compatible smart home devices with your voice. If you have more than one Echo or Echo Dot, Alexa responds intelligently from the Echo you’re closest to with ESP (Echo Spatial Perception). ESP will be available via a free over-the-air software update, coming soon.
