The editors didn't like
Expensive
Volume ring replaced with buttons
Mediocre audio performance
Custom sleeves are expensive at $20 a pop
Volume-control buttons are inferior to the volume-control ring on the original
Though fine for casual listening and strong enough to fill a room with music
The Echo still doesn't sound as good as premium
High-fidelity speakers. The volume ring of the original is gone
Replaced with the cheaper volume buttons of the Echo Dot
Volume buttons are kind of clunky
Alexa app still requires a lot of setup to get your settings just right
Hefty cord somewhat limits where it can be placed
Videos are truncated in full-screen mode
You can't use voice commands to stream music from your own local server
You can use voice commands with only a handful of the 80+ streaming services Sonos suppor

Six looks to choose from, Full sound
Looks similar to rival products
The Amazon Echo was in need of a refresh, and this one doesn't disappoint. Amazon has gone down the HomePod and Google Home route, making the device look more like a home furnishing. The new audio boost is a great addition, as is the lower price...

Alexa is a wonderful smart home controller, Compact design with changeable skins, Lots of third-party compatibility, Affordable price
Sound quality isn't great, No physical volume control ring, Software is occasionally buggy
Given the £90 ($99) price point it is hard to fault the new Echo. It looks great works really well, and will continue the huge success of the original model we've been enjoying for the last 2 years.From what we've heard the sound isn't the most amazing in...
Great design and clever voice-recognition software, Great sound quality, Compatible with smart home kit
Works best with an Amazon Prime membership, Occasionally mixes up words
So will Echo be staying put in my home? Maybe. It's certainly easier to use than other voice assistants I've tried in the past, and the fact it's already sitting there on a shelf means I don't have to spend time getting my phone out to check the news or w...

More compact and colourful, Alexa is constantly getting smarter, Great price
Sound is merely OK
As the Alexa family gets bigger, with an impressive array of differently-shaped and ever more complex devices, the new Echo delivers on a simple upgrade promise: it's cheaper, looks sleeker, and performs (mostly) better.It's not without compromise. For an...
Abstract: A punto para las navidades, han llegado los Amazon Echo a España. Alexa ya sabe español, y eso significa que los tres gigantes en este campo, Apple, Google y Amazon, ya han desembarcado con sus altavoces inteligentes. A continuación, desgranaremos las pos...

La segunda generación de Amazon Echo, la primera disponible en España, es más pequeña, más bonita y más barata que la versión original. Además, el hecho de que le puedas sustituir la carcasa hace que puedas cambiar su apariencia cuando quieras.Con unos ca...

La Amazon Echo 2 es más barata, compacta y atractiva que su predecesora. Además, el exterior de la bocina puede ser personalizado, integra toda la inteligencia que ha hecho popular a Alexa y mantiene un conector para añadir una bocina externa más potente
Tiene exactamente la misma inteligencia artificial de la Echo Dot (la más barata) y las otras Echo, el aro que te permite controlar el volumen ya no está presente y su app tiene campo para mejorar
La Amazon Echo 2 es la bocina inteligente para los que quieren un balance entre precio y sonido; mantiene toda la inteligencia de Alexa y presenta mejoras frente a su predecesor...

Design sobre et soigné, La sortie auxiliaire, Son meilleur que le Google Home, Beaucoup de Skills (et plus à venir)
Son encore un peu pauvre pour servir de système unique, Incompatible avec l'écosystème Google (Android TV, Chromecast, Play Music. ) et Apple, Les appels uniquement entre contacts Alexa, Une reconnaissance vocale encore perfectible
L'Amazon Echo est un bel objet, qui s'intègre plutôt bien à un intérieur, et avec de nombreux avantages. Reste qu'une enceinte connectée ne peut clairement pas être décorrélée de l'IA qui alimente ses interactions, ce serait comme noter un smartphone sans...
