#WHEN ISPEAK TO ALEXA ON MY ECHO DOT I GET NO RESPOND BLUETOOTH#
You can also control Bluetooth playback coming from your phone with audio commands. You can use the Echo Dot as a speaker for your phone, or send audio from the Dot to another speaker via Bluetooth. That's your choice and I'm not about to try to convince you of my point of view.Īt $49.99, this is in impulse-buy territory. I guess you either decide the convenience is more important to you than the small risk of potential misuse, or you don't. I don't have an answer or excuse for that. They're pretty minor, though.And four, yes, I know this is an always-listening device and there are lots of privacy concerns about this kind of technology. Three, I'm using the Echo Dot in Lebanon, but it's only available officially in the US, UK, and Germany, so a couple of features didn't work as expected. Two, I don't have several Echo devices, so I couldn't test the ESP or see how they work together in a multi-room setup. One, I don't have a Google Home device yet (I'm getting one soon), so I can't compare the two just yet. But before I get on with this review, I feel like I should point out a couple of things. The short answer is that I'm impressed and I think it's easily the cheapest way to get into voice-controlled assistance. At that price, it isn't hard to imagine grabbing one for the kitchen, a couple of rooms, and maybe even the hallway, especially because thanks to Echo Spatial Perception (ESP), different Echo devices will work together to only answer from the one nearest to the voice issuing the command.I've had one Echo Dot for more than a month now and I've been able to test it out through different scenarios. It also has better voice recognition and it's cheaper at $49.99. Unlike the first one, you can order it directly from Amazon without having to use another Echo. Part of what seemed like a quick success is due to the Echo Dot, the smaller cheaper version that you can sprinkle around the house in places where you don't care about excellent sound quality.The second generation Echo Dot builds on that. It seemed like we went overnight from questioning the idea of a voice assistant in a speaker to almost everyone owning an Echo and companies rushing to add Alexa support for their services and products.
Amazon's Echo success took me a little by surprise.
