  • Impressive musical performance, Plenty of bass, Smart home hub built-in, Alexa wake-word almost never fails
  • Midrange is still the weak spot, Are you a Google household or an Amazon one
  • It's easy to assume the smart speaker wars are, if not settled, then at least established in their battle lines. If you bought into Alexa, you're probably going to stick with Alexa; if you prefer the Google Assistant, or Apple's Siri, then your speaker in...

  • As powerful as the Echo Plus, Strong bass for the size, Built-in smart home hub,
  • High frequencies don't get quite as much finesse as they could, Alexa can still be awkward to talk to
  • The fourth-generation Amazon Echo speaker takes the sound quality and smart home hub capabilities of the Echo Plus and puts it in a new round package...

  • Loud, room filling sound, Bass you can hear and feel, Integrated smart home hub, Good voice response
  • Music can sound overly “processed” at times, Lacks warmth in the midtones

  • Zigbee, Bluetooth LE, and Amazon Sidewalk radios onboard, Alexa can control a huge number of smart home systems and devices, Plenty of bang for the buck
  • Google's Nest Audio sounds better, Sonos supports more music-streaming services, Polarizing industrial design
  • The Amazon Echo (4th Gen) is a pretty good audio performer, but it's a great smart speaker that's also equipped with a Zigbee radio. I'm taking a wait-and-see approach to Amazon's Sidewalk network for now. It sounds promising, but there's nothing tangible...

  • Great audio quality, Two speakers sound even better as a stereo pair, Reasonable price, Alexa is a mature and useful virtual assistant, 3.5mm audio jack,
  • Alexa can be finicky about music requests, Sphere design could be polarizing, Summary, Amazon's redesigned Echo improves upon its predecessor in several ways. It now has a Zigbee smart home hub built in, but more importantly it sounds excellent. If you wa
  • Audio quality was not among the things Echo speakers were known for when Amazon first launched the line in 2015, but Amazon has addressed that in a big way over the last few years. It's a good thing, too, since music is still one of the most-used features...

  • Loud, Way more bass than we expected, Surprisingly cool design that grows on you, 3.5mm jack on the back works as both input and output, Good value
  • Mids can seem a little lacking, While it may look like an omnidirectional speaker, it's not, and the back can feel a little shallow in comparison, There's no button to pause the music (only buttons for triggering the mic, turning it off, and volume), Cont
  • But provided you're always at the front of the Amazon Echo gen 4, it's a solid little smart speaker, offering a sound that's sharp, a price that's perfect, and a design that's different. The Echo 4 stands out amongst the competition. Frankly, it's a littl...

  • Abstract:  Chances are you have heard of Amazon's Echo products and there's a fair chance you may even have one in your home. Voice assistants are now a very well established category and they offer hands-free access to information and entertainment. Over the last f...
