To be clear, the Dot won’t rattle windows or shake picture frames off their hooks. It produces more bass, and displays more proficiency in reproducing tracks that lean heavily into those lower frequencies than the previous generation. The 5th-generation Amazon Echo Dot received a significant boost when it comes to sound.
While its sound doesn’t compete with our favorites, especially in the bass department, it does well for a speaker at its cost, especially if you buy it on sale. It uses the Zigbee smart home standard to help allow easy connection to other smart home devices like Hue Bulbs and Kwikset smart locks. It's the only Echo speaker, aside from the Echo Studio, that doubles as a smart home hub.
The 4th-gen Echo has a built-in temperature sensor, which means you can open the Alexa app and see what the temperature is in the room where the Echo resides. It also functions as a Bluetooth speaker. We like using it solo, as a stereo pair, or for multi-room music when connected with other Echo speakers. The sound on the Echo is certainly respectable, though it can’t compete with the bass produced by larger speakers like the Bose Home 300. It also has the smart home hub capabilities of the previous Echo Plus, and it comes loaded with a faster processor that speeds up Alexa's response time.
The status light ring is now around the base of said orb, which is a little more difficult to see from across the room. The fourth generation Echo looks nothing like previous generations of Echo speakers, taking on an even more modern and minimal aesthetic as a fabric-covered orb.
