- Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2025Color: BlackConfiguration: Device onlyVerified Purchasethe Echo Spot Alarm Clock is sleek in design; really easy to pair with other Echo Devices and Blutooth devices. Setup was easy and Alarm clock settings had a lot of alarm tone options for free and some had celebrity voices, nature sounds, songs etc. I am getting older as we all are and I love having Alexa in the bedroom to make emergency phone calls. I also love that the face of the clock can be changed to include current date and weather temp. I can also opt to get a short weather report from Alexa after I cancel the alarm and am awake.
Love the classic Echo sphere shape and access to all my music and skill sets. I also bought the holder made for this clock to have a charger and free up a electric cord. Great Quality product, price and size/color options.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2024Color: BlackConfiguration: Device onlyVerified PurchaseReview of the All-New Amazon Echo Spot (2024 Release)
I recently purchased the 2024 release of the Amazon Echo Spot, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision! This compact smart display is a fantastic addition to my smart home ecosystem.
Design
The updated design is sleek and modern, with a sharper and more vibrant screen than its predecessors. It fits perfectly on my nightstand without taking up too much space, and the new edge-to-edge display looks premium.
Performance
The improved sound quality is noticeable. For its size, the Echo Spot delivers clear audio with surprisingly deep bass, making it great for listening to music, podcasts, or even taking calls. The microphone pickup is excellent, even in a noisy room.
Functionality
I love the new smart features, especially the enhanced integration with Alexa. Setting alarms, checking the weather, and controlling my smart devices is seamless. The addition of new widgets for quick access to my to-do list and calendar is a game-changer for staying organized.
Camera Improvements
The video calling feature has been upgraded with better camera quality and privacy options, like a physical shutter and customizable privacy settings. It’s perfect for staying connected with friends and family.
Extras
The sleep tracking feature is an unexpected bonus! Pairing it with Alexa’s wellness tools has helped me improve my bedtime routine.
Overall, the 2024 Echo Spot combines a stylish design, impressive audio, and robust smart home features into one compact device. Whether you’re upgrading from an older model or diving into the Alexa ecosystem for the first time, this is a fantastic choice!
Rating: 5/5
- Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2025Color: BlackConfiguration: Device onlyVerified PurchaseMakes setting reminders and alarms relatively easy but some features are complicated and work better through the app. I like giving it (them) feedback on the nuances which make or break the user experience.
The sound quality is good and the volume gets pretty loud.
It is easy to set an alarm while in bed in the dark without getting up. Its easy to ask when the next alarm is set for, or to change it. Its easy to tell it to stop or change volume. I can easily tell it to set one or multiple alarms but it can be difficult to modify them. For example, "Alexa, set an alarm for 5am to play a train horn." It will set a 5am alarm but will rarely set up the sound. When trying to modify the new alarm it will usually tell me it doesn't understand or will set up additional alarms instead of modifying the alarm I wanted. If you set 2 alarms within 15 minutes apart the first alarm will not sound at all which must be due to a snooze overlap conflict and the I don't believe the second alarm sounded either. I woke up late 3 times due to it.
I often ask questions it says it doesn't understand and can't help with, when Google can usually give you something.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2025Color: Glacier WhiteConfiguration: Device onlyVerified PurchaseFinally, since 2014, Alexa can hear and understand ALL my commands. I have owned virtually every echo device that Amazon has made, and this is the first one that functions flawlessly. A great display, very good sound, and understands everything I say from close to afar. I owned the original echo spot, and was very disappointed when it was discontinued. It's great that it has returned with vengeance. I don't use them for music, I have Sonos for that. But just for test, I tried it and it was not bad. I just needed an echo device that could understand voice commands to control my home automation. Just for the record, I do not have an accent.
I have 12 echo dots 2022-2023 versions, and I will replace all of them with the new echo spot over the next year.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente diseño y funcionalidad
Color: Glacier WhiteConfiguration: Device onlyVerified PurchaseEl diseño de este ultimo echo (spot) es increible, yo lo compre en blanco por el contraste del negro de la pantalla, pero estoy seguro que en los demás colores de igual manera se verá muy bonito.
Hablando de funcionalidades:
- Básicamente funciona de igual manera que cualquer otro echo/alexa, aunque puede variar una que otra cosa debido a la nueva pantalla integrada.
- Las animaciones que se muestran en diferentes ocasiones (al pasar un minuto en el rejol, al poner musica, al crear una alarma, etc., etc.) son muy bonitas, puedes personalizar tanto el reloj con diferentes diseños (que probablemente con el tiempo se agreguen más) y con diferentes colores (magenta, violeta, verde aqua, azul, naranja y lima).
- La pantalla es táctil/touch y por esto, puedes acceder a configuraciones rapidas dentro del mismo Echo Spot (para una configuración mas detallada, abre la app de Alexa), ya sea, cambiar el color y diseño del reloj, regular el brillo de la pantalla, bajar/subir volumen, etc., etc.
Puntos malos:
- El Echo llegó en una bolsa de carton con burbujas (al menos a mi y a varios más) siento que al ser un dispositivo electrónico, debería llegar al menos en una caja de cartón con mucha más protección
- La pantalla no es un circulo como se podría pensar, es un rectangulo en el centro de toda la parte negra. Cuando está el brillo alto o al máximo, se notan los bordes de esta. De lo contrario, en espacios obscuros/no tan iluminados, no se nota para nada.
Conclusión:
Por el precio que esta en este momento a miembros Prime, es una excelente opción. Como se aprecia en las fotos, se nota mas grande que una Alexa con reloj (olvidé el nombre) pero no es tanto como para estorbar, el tamaño es ideal. valió mucho la pena por el simple hecho de ser mucho mas elegante, con mas funcionalidades y obviamente, mas nueva y actualizada.
Seguramente con el tiempo se agreguen funcionalidades para facilitar muchas mas tareas. Compra esta Alexa si quieres tener un reloj digital, una bocina de buen sonido y volúmen y obviamente, una asistente para tus tareas :)))
Gracias por llegar hasta aqui y espero haber aclarado la mayoria de dudas :))

- Las animaciones que se muestran en diferentes ocasiones (al pasar un minuto en el rejol, al poner musica, al crear una alarma, etc., etc.) son muy bonitas, puedes personalizar tanto el reloj con diferentes diseños (que probablemente con el tiempo se agreguen más) y con diferentes colores (magenta, violeta, verde aqua, azul, naranja y lima).
- La pantalla es táctil/touch y por esto, puedes acceder a configuraciones rapidas dentro del mismo Echo Spot (para una configuración mas detallada, abre la app de Alexa), ya sea, cambiar el color y diseño del reloj, regular el brillo de la pantalla, bajar/subir volumen, etc., etc.
Puntos malos:
- El Echo llegó en una bolsa de carton con burbujas (al menos a mi y a varios más) siento que al ser un dispositivo electrónico, debería llegar al menos en una caja de cartón con mucha más protección
- La pantalla no es un circulo como se podría pensar, es un rectangulo en el centro de toda la parte negra. Cuando está el brillo alto o al máximo, se notan los bordes de esta. De lo contrario, en espacios obscuros/no tan iluminados, no se nota para nada.
Conclusión:
Por el precio que esta en este momento a miembros Prime, es una excelente opción. Como se aprecia en las fotos, se nota mas grande que una Alexa con reloj (olvidé el nombre) pero no es tanto como para estorbar, el tamaño es ideal. valió mucho la pena por el simple hecho de ser mucho mas elegante, con mas funcionalidades y obviamente, mas nueva y actualizada.
Seguramente con el tiempo se agreguen funcionalidades para facilitar muchas mas tareas. Compra esta Alexa si quieres tener un reloj digital, una bocina de buen sonido y volúmen y obviamente, una asistente para tus tareas :)))
Gracias por llegar hasta aqui y espero haber aclarado la mayoria de dudas :))

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente reloj, bocina y despertador
Color: Ocean BlueConfiguration: Device onlyVerified PurchaseLa bocina Alexa es muy bonita, el color azul la hace resaltar bastante y la hace diferente a lo típico en colores que siempre es gris, plata o negro.
Funciona muy bien, se escucha muy bien la puse en mi recamara y considero que el audio es el suficiente para el espacio. Y todo muy bien con las funcionalidades de Alexa. Muy recomendable.
