There are 5 updates and reasons to consider the NEW Amazon ECHO (4th Generation). They are the new Design. Amazon has gone with the new sphere shape. It is very polarizing. A lot of people do not like it. The new design does come with a new speaker layout that gives better highs and deeper bass. Spatial audio will tune the music to the room. You also get a hub that has Zigbee, B.L.E. and Sidewalk. The biggest thing about this is the sound. With the 2 .08" tweeters and the 3"woofer you get a nice sound out of this new design. What do you think after hearing next to last years 3rd generation Echo? This is a nice upgrade.

Hi Craig, I enjoy your channel and have ordered a echo 4th gen as you have sold me on it. Hoping the temperature sensor works to tell the temp in my flat. I use the echo devices to play Amazon music. It’s not a perfect sync between the two. Do you play Amazon music through them? The problem I find is Alexa not finding the album for example. The alexa app integration with Amazon music is a little basic. You see on the Alex app the music your playing but searching music with it is difficult. I’ve started playing music from iPad with Amazon music to everywhere group and it works ok. Still a bit buggy where it hangs from time to time after I have paused the music. The other annoying thing is you can’t seem to fast forward the song. Anyway wondered what your thoughts were? Thanks

@briteops 3 года назад

Hey Craig, I know it's been 4 months but would you recommend the echo dot 4th gen or the echo 4th gen?

@CraigsTechTalk 3 года назад

If sound is important, definitely the Echo 4th gen. The dot sounds good if you want it in a smaller room for casual listening. The echo 4 has the separate woofer and stereo tweeters.

Yes. I got one for my birthday, then found about stereo pairing and bought another. It sounds really good. I did have an initial issue initially that the one bought for me was linked to the wife's account, even linked in a family group, the primary account needs to be the same to pair them.

@staggerlee6794 3 года назад

@@Vampireduckling Since I posted my question I got Echo Studios and paired them up. I have them as a pair for music and just one via optic cable for the television. Just having the one Studio on the TV is more than fine enough for me. Having a pair for music is marvelous but I am already toying with the idea of adding a sub-woofer just for some added bone shattering bass on my music.

@2muchnoise Год назад

I am returning this useless brick. The sound is horrible and you can NOT use it as external speaker through the 3,5mm jack unlike it is said at 7:15. It's OUT ONLY! If you want to connect it to a decent external speaker you can but with this thing you are limited to paid stream services, like Amazon music. Nothing else I wanted, including the sound of RU-vid videos, RU-vid music, works here, so your phone or tablet must be always on and paired with this ball to play that. If this is the case, then it is preferable to connect your phone directly to an amplifier (there are cables for this) or active speakers, which turns this ball useless. I also didn't figure out how to play TuneIn without having to turn on the mobile phone. The voice command ALWAYS led me to subscribe the Amazon music. Maybe for gaming it can handle with better sound than your phone/tablets' speakers but remember you can only pair it with one device at time. Regarding the 'Smart Home' thing: be aware of imcompatibility devices and privacy. The Zigbee compatible gadgets cost at least twice as much and all your Alexa information has to go through the cloud. You can bypass it with another hub device, like Home Assistant (for nerds) or Hubitat (for normal people), which both work with local wi-fi. But, again, that turns this thing useless. I can't find any other use for this lousy speaker other than better sound in tablet or mobile games.

Craig since you have Amazon's ear can you ask them why did they put a white power cord to a charcoal color Echo 4th generation, it kind looks strange to me when my 3rd generation echo charcoal has a black power cord. The black cord fits and the white looks out of place to me.

As well will the line out from the echo be stereo if I split that signal to the receiver. Thanks

Huge fan of the 3rd Gen because of the 3rd party in ceiling mounts. Not sure if this 4th gen will ever work for that purpose going forward.

@CraigsTechTalk 3 года назад

The mounts are looking interesting for this design. Don't know if you will get that same thing.

Good point.

I don't think it's the shape itself that is so off-putting, but the fact it's all one solid color. if they had contrasting colors for speaker and base it may be more appealing. great vid.

@CraigsTechTalk 3 года назад

That is a great point. The solid color is off putting.

There is a echo and a echo dot proper confusing whats better ???

@smokinokin66 3 года назад

Thanks for the review, Craig! Looks really interesting - but since I use it mainly for music and asking the weather or recipes, I'll hang onto the current generation and wait on buying the new 4th generation for a bit. It's pretty exciting that the sound is better though - and the design is kind of cool - though I do like the ring of light on the top of the Echo, rather than at the base. I'm glad they're at least still working on improving it. Thanks for always keeping us informed and up to date! Hope you and your family are all well and staying safe! Have a great weekend - Laurie

Hello Laurie, it is great to hear from you. I hope you are doing well too. The family and I are doing great. The great part about the echos is that all the generations still get the same music and Alexa features. There is no need to update unless you think one of these changes is worth it. The 3rd generation Echos sound great. It is good to see them trying to improve each year. Thank you for the nice words. Glad to help. Have a great weekend too.

Here’s a question, what would you recommend. Two new 4th gen echos or a second echo studio? The price would be similar and I have two last gen echos which together sound pretty good, can only imagine what two of the latest echos would sound like, let alone two studios.
