Product Information

It does everything any other Echo speaker can do but with significantly weaker sound quality, thanks to its teeny-tiny 0. You can definitely hear the speaker but the quality in my opinion is only loud as an outdated phone speaker. Based out of the Tri-state area where I enjoyed the latest, pieces of smart tech along with my wonderful wife and three energetic boys. Plug it into a power outlet, and you have another point in your house where Alexa is listening in and ready to react. This Echo can go anywhere you want from the front porch, bathroom, garage, basement, tool shed and etc.

On either side (top and bottom), you have two microphones, below that, the action button, the mute button, and the speaker. We will then be able to choose the ideal alternative to suit our requirements in terms of features and budget.We and our partners use data for Personalised ads and content, ad and content measurement, audience insights and product development. An investment in an alternative that should suit us as well as the Echo Flex would be a more beneficial option. We weren’t sent either of these for review, but it’s an idea that makes the Echo Flex considerably more appealing.

That won’t appeal to everyone but if you’re the kind of person whose mind just lit up with possibilities, then perhaps there is a market for the Echo Flex after all.

Both the multi-colour night light and the motion sensor attach neatly into the bottom of the plug, offering extra functionality as part of a smart home. Trying to set it up via the usual methods of saying “Alexa, connect Bluetooth” resulted in it instantly replying there was nothing available to connect, clearly without checking.

Sound quality is weaker and there’s no audio-out jack to improve it, but Google Assistant is far smarter, so horses for courses.

We can get the same features, greater connectivity, good compatibility, and speakers with the Echo Dot. Not only has Alexa entered into pop culture but the company has an implausible number of spinoffs from the Echo Show to the dinky Dot, alongside buttons, inputs, a clock and a subwoofer for added bass. You could plug it in by the front door and get it to welcome you home by hitting the lights and playing your favourite music, for example. There are several places where you can place your Echo Flex, if there is an outlet, you can plug it in. For example, I put my Echo Flex in the Basement, so we can hear announcements but to detect if theirs glass breaking.Generally, they’ve been sensible additions that bring something new to the table, or at least introduce a form factor that appeal to a new niche people. On the plug itself there are only two buttons: one that cuts the microphone for privacy, and another for getting Alexa’s attention without saying the wake word.
