Amazon Echo Dot (5th Gen, 2022 Release) Review

 

Convenient tap gestures ; Well-balanced sound ; Can serve as an Eero mesh network node

No 3.5mm jack ; Limited frequency range

The fifth-generation Amazon Echo Dot adds tap gestures and mesh networking, but is otherwise nearly identical to the previous version.

Amazon Echo Dot Kids (5th Gen)

 

Amazon's child-focused Echo Dot comes with the same hardware as the grown-up Dot, plus a year's worth of steeply discounted kids content.

Exactly the same hardware as the grown-up Dot ; Colorful “Owl” and “Dragon” designs ; Two-year (rather than 90-day) warranty ; A year of steeply discounted Amazon Kids+ access

Kids+ content can be hit or miss ; TV shows and movies on Kids+ require a Fire Tablet or Echo Show

The Echo Dot Kids gives you a year’s worth of access to the massive Amazon Kids+ library for a fraction of the cost, while offering the same hardware and features as the superlative Echo Dot.
