Echo Dot from a technical point of view: Good smart speaker for news and podcasts

Amazon Echo Dot 4th Gen (Image source: GIGA)

We reviewed the puck-shaped 3rd Gen Echo Dot for release in Fall 2018. It was not for nothing that the WLAN speaker was sold out for several weeks: it offers good value for money. The Echo Dot is not suitable for upscale music enjoyment – but the sound quality of the Echo Dot (3rd generation) is definitely sufficient for the morning radio in the bathroom and news at the kitchen table. The main feature is of course the Voice assistant Alexa. This sometimes gives unsatisfactory answers, but is particularly helpful with standard questions about the weather or with a news summary. The 4th Gen Echo Dot is spherical and sounds better than its predecessor.
