With Alexa’s help (Amazon’s voice service) this little gadget is able to play your favorite music, audiobooks, provide information, news, sports scores, weather and more.
Echo Dot 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. If you have more than one Echo or Echo Dot, Alexa responds intelligently from the Echo closest to you.
