Amazon Echo Dot (5th Gen)
The latest version of Echo Dot, the 5th generation, comes with significant improvements compared to its predecessor. Among its new features are a temperature sensor that can be utilized for different actions and routines and an accelerometer that allows users to easily pause music or silence alarms by simply tapping the top of the speaker. The speaker quality has also been enhanced with a larger audio driver, making a noticeable difference in sound quality despite its compact size.
Don't forget that the Echo Dot also has added temperature and tap sensors and even an Eero Wi-Fi extender, meaning it's perfectly suited to jump right into your smart home setup — especially if you're already in Amazon's ecosystem. The Amazon Echo Dot is the best smart speaker for its price, hands down.
