'Alexa Calling' video calls, Cute design, Sounds pretty good considering the size, The smartest radio alarm clock you'll ever find
'Drop In' could cause privacy concerns, Price feels a little high compared to Echo Dot, Small screen for video playback

Lovely form factor, Video is clear
Round screen means video cropping, Pricier than the regular Echo
The Amazon Echo Spot is the best-looking Echo product out there: a versatile, Alexa-toting video device that wants to be in your bedroom, your kitchen, your office...
The Amazon Echo Spot is adorable. But, more importantly, I think it will make for a perfect alarm clock. The size and design were really my only reservations about the Echo Show, and now that those have been addressed, I think this ‘glanceable' gadget wil...

When it comes to design, the Echo Spot is probably the most appealing of the Echo range. It's softer form makes it nicer to look at than the Echo Show, but it's important to recognise the difference between these two devices. While the Show sits nicely in...
Abstract: Amazon pitches it as an Alexa-enabled alarm clock, but it’s also capable of making video and voice calls and letting you watch video clips. It has all the powers of other Echo devices, meaning you can control your smart home, ask it to tell you jokes, giv...
Abstract: Previously, it was possible to see who was at the door but not talk to them and Alexa wouldn't even ring a chime when the doorbell was pressed. Now, you can set Alexa to alert you whenever the doorbell is rung and tell whoever's at the door to go away wit...

The sound quality is deliberately weak – if you want beefier sound, you'll need to hook it up to an external speaker via the 3.5mm audio jack on the rear or connect it to a Bluetooth speaker – and it's certainly not a patch on that kicked out by the excel...

Sleek, compact design, Alexa with all her powers, Great as a bedside clock
Only modest sound quality, Not many useful visual skills, Bedroom camera can be unsettling
We're still not 100% sold on a screen being a critical part of the Echo experience, but the Echo Spot feels significantly more focused and purpose-driven than the slightly aimless Echo Show – especially with a US$100 difference in price. With the smaller...

Abstract: The smartphone made the standalone alarm clock worthless. Sure you probably know some alarm clock holdouts (a parent or grandmother perhaps), but you probably just use your phon e, which is already resting on the nightstand and has a decent enough alarm...

The Echo Spot is a well-made device with a good-looking design, and it's handy for quick, voice-activated video calls. Sound quality was better than we expected, and noticeably better than the Echo Dot's
The Echo Spot doesn't currently support YouTube, nor does it offer many video sources for your flash briefings. The touchscreen adds less than it should to the Alexa experience, and it's too small to be helpful unless you're within a few feet of the devic
The Echo Spot is a fine for what it is, but Amazon still hasn't done enough to convince us that Alexa needs a touchscreen at all...
