Good replacement for Echo Dot with Clock, but could be improved.
4 out of 5 stars
Good replacement for Echo Dot with Clock, but could be improved.
I bought this to replace my Echo Dot with clock, as a bedside clock / alarm clock.The product looks pretty decent and the animations on screen are pretty cool. Importantly to me I can see the screen from different angles (a must for a bedside clock, in my opinion).I will say though as noted in some other reviews, the device is clearly built to a budget by not taking full advantage of the dead space where the screen is.It also seems that there may be some missing features (Alexa can't change the alarm volume "on this device yet") .Overall though, I am very pleased with it as a replacement for the original echo dot clock, and hope that future updates add some missing features.Would recommend to purchase, particularly when on offer.

Finally a display that is not too bright for the bedroom. Adjusts its level perfectly and night mode reduces the time to a dull red that doesn’t seem to add any noticeable light to a dark room. Easy to read, nice having the weather, temperature, date and time on one screen, no ads, no dumb useless data. Very nice!

Sound is pretty good and outperforms what I expect from its size. No complaints here.

This delivers Alexa with the added extra of a useful display, does it do more than that, no but that’s the beauty of it. It’s not overcrowded with useless features no one uses or are only half baked. Quite refreshing actually.

Bought this primarily to use as a bedside clock with alarm and weather info. Didn't want video playback or video calling etc.

Really pleased with it. Looks nice and stylish. Very easy to set up and use. The clock face is very clear and adjusts brightness automatically for light conditions (goes red at night and still very clear to read but not intrusive at all). The weather icons are nice to see on the screen and it also shows details of what music you are playing etc. Finally, the speaker quality for playing music is great for such a small unit.

I bought this as a trade up for an old Echo Dot with the intention of using it as a bedside clock. The display is nice and clear and dims automatically at night to an unobtrusive dim red colour. Music from internal apps and bluetooth is great. But and it's a big But, If like me you like to fall asleep to music or white noise the display remains on and there seems to be no way to get the nice dim red clock or even turn off the display completely. The bedroom is lit up by the light from the screen. I've tried all sorts of combinations of "Alexa, show the clock" or "screen off" to no avail. It seems that there is no way around the problem. For a device that seemed intended for use as a bedside device this is like a pretty fatal flaw. Overall, it's made me wish I hadn't upgraded and as such, I can't recommend it.
UPDATE 13/07/24 - As a result of this review, I had a phone call from Amazon CS. Very concerned that I was unable to ask Alexa to 'turn the screen off'. I demonstrated this and the CS rep heard Alexa say, ' I don't know how to do that.' The rep said that the turn screen off command should be working and that he would notify their software technicians with a view of getting this implemented. So fingers crossed this issue will be addressed in a future software update. Top marks to Amazon for actively responding to issues raised by reviewers.

 I have to say that I didn’t have extremely high hopes for this new echo, but I thought I’d give it a go regardless as it was available in a colour that would suit my bedside table, having received it today, I have to say - It really suits the small space it has!

I think that’s one of this products best selling point… looks. It features a small display (which when brightened has an obvious backlight box cutout), and a dedicated good sounding speaker. Obviously, with it being an Echo product, it also controls your home, calls people, plays music for you… and so on.

The colours available are great, making it customisable and ready for any room (like mine).

The UI of the product is nice and smooth (as you’d expect at this price point and release year).

The only thing I would say is that the display cut off is really frustrating, I wish it had a curved display that utilised its circular space!

If your looking for an Echo device that matches a small space with big features, this is the one.

Another interesting device from Amazon in the echo line up, and I have experienced most of them in my time. Sure, it is pitched as the ‘smart alarm clock’, a job the Show 5 or Dot with Clock (probably the best all round device currently) do admirably too. I have always found that relatively to their size, the echo devices produce a surprisingly good sound, and this is no exception. The screen graphics when playing music seem quite pleasant, but whilst a display is nice feature, it doesn’t give much more in features than the Dot, and so unless it is on a very good offer, I think there are better value devices to be had.
