I blindly bought this Echo Spot without knowing anything about it. I set it up in my bedroom. Upon examining it, I noticed a spot the looked like a camera lens. I shined my flashlight on it and got freaked out. I did some research and discovered it’s NOT a camera BUT it looks like one. Why in the world would Amazon include something that looks like a camera knowing that was an issue with the first Echo Spot in 2017. Ultimately, I’m returning the device because it’s a little sus and doesn’t do enough. Paying $80 for a tap-to-stop alarm and small display doesn’t make sense to me. I don’t want to get up and turn off my alarm. I’m lazy, I’d rather say “Alexa stop” and ask what time it is repeatedly throughout the day. However… a camera WITH a shutter button would’ve been amazing. Having the option to cover the camera would’ve given peace of mind. Why didn’t Amazon just do that??? That would’ve opened the door to many more features.

We absolutely love our Amazon Echo Pops, they are not only adorable in any room but, quite functional!! They have several colors and styles to choose from and can be added to any room. We use ours to play music in different rooms or to send an announcement to anyone who isn’t in the room, we also play tricks on each other with these!! We use Alexa to ask about the weather for the day, to add items to different shopping lists, Alexa also keeps us up to date on any and all Amazon deliveries and Amazon sales that are available on an item on our list. We love these and plan on getting a few more because we really like the speakers, the sound and volume is really great!! The controls to this are simple and the voice capabilities are fantastic!! Plus, these are incredibly durable and last forever!!

From the start of opening, I was impressed! This smart speaker has a nice weight to it and looks really cool!
I chose blue to match the bedroom color, which matches perfectly.
Best new addition for the bedroom, has a lovely responsive touch screen, so easy to set alarms with voice commands. I have set up to read me the news when I wake up. I also turn my lights on and off, for bed time and wake up. Superb bedroom alarm clock with a nice night mode and easy to read display. Highly recommend, love it!

I received this product from Amazon and Influenster. I currently have 2 Amazon Echo Dots (5th Gen) and this Echo Spot Smart Alarm Clock has been the perfect addition. The sound quality is great and is nice to have sleep sounds closer to me during the night compared to the placement of my Echo Dot. I’ve created a few routines using a smart bulb with my nightstand lamp to turn on the light in the morning. It’s still a little more abrupt of a light than something like a Hatch alarm clock, but I’m working on some tweaks to make it a little more subtle. All around, would recommend!
