The most popular Echo is now even better. With a new speaker and design, Echo Dot is a voice-controlled smart speaker with Alexa, perfect for any room. Ask Alexa to play music, answer questions, read the news, check the weather, set alarms, control compatible smart home devices, and more. Alexa is always getting smarter and adding new skills like tracking fitness, playing games, and more. You can also call almost anyone and control compatible smart home devices with your voice. Stream songs from Amazon Music, Spotify, SiriusXM, and others through the improved speaker for richer and louder sound. Instantly drop in on other rooms in your home or make an announcement to every room with a compatible Echo device.
