The verdict
While the new Echo Spot looks good, it functions as little more than a glorified alarm clock. If you're wondering if a display this small serves any practical use, the answer is no. If you don't need a graphic clock, you can save a lot of money by getting the Echo Pop instead.
✓Liked: Unobtrusive design, Impressive bass output for size
✕Could be better: Tiny 2.8" display, Sound distorts above 50% volume, No camera for video calls, Alexa not as intelligent as modern AI
