Everything the 2024 Echo Spot Can Do 

I bought this one to replace the Echo show 8. Just so I could see the weather time and date all the time. The show 8 was so annoying displaying ads for amazon shopping and other nonsense. This one is perfect as a bed-side clock, just pair it with your phone and you can say "computer, pair with my phone" and then resume whatever podcast or audio book you were listening to while on the go.

Up now, this is the most complete explanation on the new echo spot on RU-vid, everything’s well described and including examples. Congratulation!! 😊

Glad there are no ads. Wish echo show was the same w/o ads. All i want it to display is the time and weather

I'd probably get this if I didn't already have 5 Echo's in my house. 😬

This review was so helpful! I just bought the Echo Spot to use it as an alarm clock in the bedroom and the features you presented here are more than enough for such purpose.

Thank you for making us video them come out with a lot of things, but I wouldn’t have known about it if you didn’t put it out

No cam is a bonus, good review 👍

I guess you can call it the Echo Spot "2nd gen"

Hey, enjoyed the video and I picked up a few hints for things I had no idea this could do. Unfortunately I had to send mine back already, because (IMHO) the best feature of the original Spot by far was its ability to cycle visually through weather alerts/daily forecasts/daily insights/news reports from various sources, along with popular recipes, wha't's streaming on Aiexa, etc. etc. and you can just tap to learn more. The new Spot, well, it just sits there showing the time and a weather icon. It would be interesting to do a video comparing the original Spot vs. this one side by side to show what's been left out of the new one. My guess is Amazon wants you to buy this for your nightstand AND a Show of some kind to replace the original Spot ;-(

Had mine a few days,I like it👍

this came out on my BIRTHDAY

Brett When you have a Video out I know the Drill.When ready need to come back to refresh.Thank You for sharing.💯✌️

Great video. Thank you. Can you set it up as a radio alarm clock? I.e so it wakes you up to a preferred radio station? In my case that would be BBC radio 4 in the U.K. Thanks

Probably, the best review, regarding this product. Super, simple, straightforward. What's not to like. Thanks....🙂

I already have an echo dot fourth GEN but I like this device

Echo Spot released in July 10th 2024

Grabbed one during prime day. Just wish it came in more colors 😂 would be cool to be able to pick orange to match my digital pick.

Nice detailed review! Although I wonder if the Echo Show 5 would be a better choice for only $10 more. 🤔

Are you still able to use SiriusXM as your wake up audio? Can you turn the display completely off at night?

Thanks for this video, Brett. Am gonna order mine in the next 5 mins. Totally sold on it 😊

How do you set an alarm that repeats on specific days of the week? For example, I want an alarm that repeats Monday to Thursday.

I get mine tomorrow just ordered it

can you add custom alarms like you downloaded.

that is the coolest amazon echo device i have ever seen

i just bought one as a bedside clock ... but i'm in AU and we get bugger all settings via the app to change things on these devices....

Does it have battery backup and work without signal as an alarm clock is the only reason I’ll buy one of those things.

My last Echo Spot screen started flickering after two years. A well documented issue which had Amazon completely ignore. I wonder if this 2nd generation will experience the same.

Idk if it's just me but on the 2nd clock face top right it dsnt show the temp or date for me. Just the time. Idk how to fix this

Can I use this to replace my old echo show which I only use to display the time. Will it announce when I get an Amazon deliver, thank my driver and play my music?

You can remove an item from the shopping list by saying 'tick off bananas'

This has not been launched in India. Is it a good idea to import? Will the features work online?

Excellent tutorial. Thanks.

I like the ocean blue color.

Is there a way or command to play music BUT keep the clock display? Basically background music with out the song name and animation? Also to end music I say 'turn off' but it seems to only silence it. I have to say 'HOME' to go back to the startup screen?

With AI Amazon should start giving us a visual virtual assistant with their devices, like in most SF movies.

My Echo Show 5 is screen is smashed broken so I could replace it with this

Brilliant demonstration. Thank you ☘️

Do you think it’s worth trading? I currently have the echo dot fairly similar without the animated screen.

I just got the dot 5th gen..I'm dissappeared. The motion sensor routines don't work, echo only hears the wake word part of the time,and they discontinued the clock. I wish I had gotten this one, but now át 79, no way.

I love this new Alexa device.

Does it separate alarm volume from music volume?

Always look forwards to watching ur videos!!🤗

Where is tyre-c port. Amazon forgot to upgrade as per 2024 tech

Are there any google assistant smart clocks these days? The lenovo ones seem to be discontinued and oos everywhere...

i dont think it could pair to a firestick theater option. like my other dots.

Just wondering with the Bluetooth function can you pair Bluetooth headphones to play music through the headphones & not the speaker on the spot ?

Hey there Tech with Brett, just got a quick question. If for whatever reason. You need to reboot your Google home hub and it finished rebooting, why does it loose wifi connection fir a few seconds?

I swear I can see a camera on mine on the top left ?? There’s like a little faint circle there

How would you use 2 in the same room (1 on each nightstand) for 2 users?

I have an alexa with clock that dims when light are off, will this one do same thing if you are using as alarm clock in bed room?

Great video. Well done.

Does it run the new Vega OS

nice video thanks, watched at 2x

Is this model Matter? Can I connect it to my Apple HomeKit app?

looking good!

Let’s push him to 500K subs 😊😊

Can I connect my echo dot 5 with this echo spot in 2.0 stereo mode to be able to listen in cinema mode with the fire tv?

the app should have the same settings as directly on the device.

Is it necessary to be conntected per bluetooth ? I want him to play radio only with WIFI is it possible ?

Kinda looks like the echo pop

Does it show lyrics while playing on spotify or prime music ? I have read in a forum that it does but disappears in few seconds came back to clock screen ...is it true ? Thanks!

They should put chatgpt into that device, imagine how powerful it would be

How to delete crescent on screen? Is boring.

Is there any little echo device like this that I can view my cameras?

Thank you for your video...quick question, have you shined a flash light at the screen? I have and seen a camara spot near top left so now im thinking there might be a camara in there..please can you try this and see if you notice it?

Can I connect this to my iPhone with Bluetooth or do I need to use Home Assistant?

wish google made one of these

Hey everyone I need suggestions, I'm searching for something that I can view my cameras on, control music, and control my lights as well all in one. Thank you!

Pity it didn't support a full colour screen with live weather animations. Similar to something you can do on a smartwatch. Still a nice product though.

Can you use this as a intercom?

Don’t see that this does anything my echo sphere doesn’t do, except there’s that tiny screen with a limited number of displays.

Does it work with my eero, like the echo dot?

I like your videos Brett! :)

It looks like the echo pop

nice

Does this work with Android?

I will get it if my echo dot breaks. Also, im upset because my fire stick fried

You can’t seem to make this wake up to music only the sounds which is kind of annoying. I much rather have music. Play then an alarm ringing.

One thing I don't like about this echo is you only get weather with two clockfaces and I don't get weather with the purple color clockface.

How do you turn alarm off in the morning?

It doesn’t return to the home clock screen when I tell it to stop playing radio station

it looks like a echo pop but with a screen

3.5 jack gone tho

Why no Pink echo spot?

Are you going to review the new Samsung products ❤

Change name Spot to ECHO from Alexa.

Another Amazon device destined for CEX in a year for about £10-£20. The developers seem to be churning out the same product with different designs and not using any innovation.

Niceeee

I think it should be called the echo 6th gen😂

Actually it’s 9 minutes 😊

HIIIII

after using Ai alexa and siri seem so dumb now :)

Seems kinda stupid. The screen only shows the weather and it has no camera. The non-sale price is 95 euro in Europe lol. Better to get a normal echo Dot or if you want a screen then get the small echo Show. My opinion of course..

To be honest it's useless. The first one is discreet and powerful. It's enough for me.

Listen mate you know as most other people do they are ALL the same surely you must now the saying, You ca fool some of the people etc, So come on say it as it is.

It's overpriced

HERE UNDER 1MIN GANG PLZ PIN

It’s nothing but ads. I have the original one. It rarely ever shows the time anymore. Stay far away from this device!

Not Claude AI inside yet… do not buy it

I'm getting this for my bedroom. i bought 2 echo show 8 3rd gen. Both were defective and amazon who i use to work for. Said that we can't replace it but will do a return. The echo show 8 3rd gen is trash and previous models are way better
