Amazon Echo Dot (3rd Gen)- Overview

What is Echo Dot?
Echo Dot is a voice-controlled smart speaker with Alexa, designed for any room. Just ask for music, news, information, control compatible smart home devices and more. You can either use the crisp and clear built-in speaker or connect Echo Dot to your own other speakers using Bluetooth or 3.5mm audio cable.

Meet Alexa, the brain behind Echo
Alexa, the brain behind Echo Dot, is built in the cloud, so it is always getting smarter. The more you use Dot, the more Alexa adapts to your speech patterns and vocabulary. Using Alexa is as simple as asking a question – just ask and Alexa will respond instantly.

Voice control your music
Echo Dot streams music from Amazon Prime Music, JioSaavn, Gaana, Hungama Music and Spotify - just ask for your favorite artist or song or request a specific genre or mood. Search for music by album, decade, or let Alexa pick the music for you. Or wake up to your favorite music by setting a musical alarm. With Amazon Prime Music, you can also create and manage your personal playlist.

Voice control your home
Use Echo Dot to switch on the geyser before getting out of bed or dim the lights from the couch to watch a movie – all without lifting a finger or even raising your voice. Echo Dot works with compatible smart home devices - either WiFi based or those that ship with their own hub.

With “Routines”, control multiple devices at scheduled times or with a single voice command, like switch on the AC and turn off the lights every night.

Make everyday easier
Sleek and compact design makes Echo Dot a convenient addition to any room in the house. You can place Dot in the bedroom and use it to play music, set alarms and turn off your lights. Or put it in the living room to check news, sports scores, calendar, and movie show times. Or use it in the kitchen to set timers, add items to lists and shop for millions of products on Amazon just using your voice.

Can hear you across the room
Echo Dot can hear you from across the room, even in noisy environments, or while playing music as it has four microphones that use beam-forming technology and enhanced noise cancellation. When you want to use Echo dot, simply say the wake word “Alexa” and it responds instantly.

Alexa has more than 30,000+ skills and counting. Skills add capabilities to your Echo device. Skills can help you stay updated with the latest news, request a ride from Ola, listen to All India Radio and more. Create your own personal skills and custom responses with Alexa Skills Blueprints. Just say “Alexa, help me get started with skills“.
