*I love my **Newest.Technology** echo. Affordable and fun to use. Can listen to music while working around the house and the echo provides a lot of useful information. I would recommend this.*

[@KeyserTheRedBeard]

impressive upload landpet. I smashed the thumbs up on your video. Maintain up the terrific work.

[@landpet]

Thank you!

[@emmabee5027]

Finally. A good review and clear answers on how to set the alarm with or without music etc. Quick question, can you stop the alarm completely without talking to Alexa? Many thanks!

[@landpet]

Tapping it on the top snoozes the alarm. Hitting the action button seems to turn it off.

[@emmabee5027]

@@landpet cool thanks!

[@landpet]

Np

[@Gk2003m]

Your question begs a question: if the thing is already making noise to wake you, obviously you’re not gonna wake others by adding in “alexa, stop”…. right? lol

[@bankai6139]

Nice comparison! I like the spherical shape, looks cooler.

[@landpet]

I like the shape as well

[@mikmwik]

Alarm clock question: if I get up during the snooze time, what is the command to turn off the alarm?

[@midlife_minimalist]

Very helpful review. I don’t have anything but Siri now but need a new alarm clock that will wake me to music not a buzzer. Can I set a recurring alarm to wake me to a certain type of music like classic rock? I have the amazon music included with prime and a lot of music in my ITunes. Can it access both of those?

[@landpet]

Thanks! You can say "wake me up to at 7am" or "wake me up to at 9am" and it gets from amazon music. So yes you can pick classic rock or the artist. It gets it from Amazon music, it can tap into a few others as well but I don't believe iTunes is on that list.

[@emmabee5027]

@@landpet thanks. Do you think it also works with the radio or other type of music? For example I don’t have Amazon prime. So what one does if he wants to wake up with songs or radio?

[@christinaclark9106]

Question: On the Echo Dot (4th Generation Clock) there is an LED Clock on the face of the “ball shaped dot”….. my question….. what do the two LED dots indicate that can light up on the face of the Echo Dot to the right of the displayed time? (Obviously not the colon in the time display, but to the right of the time display). I believe the bottom dot that looks like a period after the time is indicating an alarm is set, but I am looking to know what the dot above it indicates. Does anybody know?

[@blitz00123]

can I still use the echo 4 as an alarm even it doesn't have a clock?

[@landpet]

Yes, all Alexa assistants have the same functionality with or without a display.

[@heyceline]

Hey! Can we ask alexa to open / play any movies on netflix? Or? Please help.. thank you :)

[@landpet]

You're welcome! yes you can granted it doesn't always recognize what you're trying to say. For something as clear as play the witcher, that's pretty easy and it works pretty much all the time, but try to ask it to play it a non common title, that's a hit or miss.

[@scottlowell493]

The 3rd gen bounces sound internally. Sounds boxed in compared to the 4h gen. The 4th gen sounds more open and less muted.

[@landpet]

It's not bad if you play with the equalizer. I just prefer the regular echo 4th gen, sounds much better.

[@AduKofs]

Great video and excellent comparison 🔥

[@landpet]

Thanks! 👍

[@jabarimoshe4934]

a tip : watch movies on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.

[@emmanuelskyler7000]

@Jabari Moshe yup, I've been using Flixzone} for months myself :D

[@mick2246]

U should show drop in ,,its really handy it acts like intercom

[@landpet]

That is handy, I agree

[@tanaynigam1433]

Hey would you suggest the one with clock or without clock? Also is there a size or sound difference between the two?

[@landpet]

I like the one with the clock, there is no other difference between the echo dot with a clock and the echo dot. If you want better sound, get the echo (not to be confused by the echo dot). The echo is twice the size of the echo dot but it’s not obvious from the pictures. The echo doesn’t have an option with a clock.

[@tanaynigam1433]

@@landpet okayyy..do you mean echo plus?

[@ASAFYY]

were do you hear the music better in a smartphone or in the Amazon Echo Dot 4th?

Echo dot

[@Davidm41417]

Is it worth upgrading from a amazon eco dot 2nd generation to a Echo Dot (4th Gen) | Smart speaker with clock and Alexa | Glacier White

[@landpet]

Depends on your situation, the fourth gen is definitely better especially the clock version.

[@diezad8324]

Hi I would like to know can this echo dot be used as speaker for computer or TV with Aux 3.5 mm ? Because i have heard, it's only possible for output not for input thx

[@landpet]

I don't see an option for the echo dot for input. The echo 4th gen however does have that option, it also sounds much better.

[@pratikrajsah]

What else can be done with the clock? If I am paying more, I need to make use of it. Can I use it as a timer or a Pomodoro timer?

[@landpet]

You can be use it as a timer, also shows you the weather if you ask for it and a few other things like volume level

[@pratikrajsah]

@@landpet I cancelled plain one and ordered digital clock one, there was the difference of only ₹1000 and the digital clocks usually starts from the range ₹500. So this was a better deal, because this clock (echo dot) is so smart that it would set a time on voice commands.

[@thmas1001]

@@landpet can you have a custom song playing for your alarm with the echo dot 4th gen?

[@robh063]

Can you set an alarm and have it wake you to music?

[@landpet]

Yes Example: "Alexa wake me up to music at 7:00 am"

[@robh063]

@@landpet Thanks. I ordered one. Thank you for the great review!

[@GraceDumplings]

My tap to snooze is not working no matter how many time I tap it or anywhere I tap with multiple fingers. My mute isn’t on either

[@landpet]

Hmmmm, not sure why, it should work granted I don’t use that feature anymore

[@nataliesanchez493]

Does it have the option to remove the clock on display? For darker room at night?

[@landpet]

Yes, you can turn off the clock display completely so it looks just like a regular echo dot. You can also dim it as well.

[@Gk2003m]

This would be a great candidate for a schedule routine: have the clock off during the hours you don’t need to be awake, have it turn on during times when you might want to be awake. I ordinarily wake some minutes before my alarm goes off. Imagine simply glancing over and, if there’s no clock display, not caring what time it is - you just roll over and go back to sleep! You don’t have to think “is it 5am, in which case I can roll over - or is it 5:50, in which case the alarm will be going off in five minutes anyway so I might as well get up”??

[@bonko4943]

How do you connect music to your echo? It doesn’t work for me ;-;

[@landpet]

Through Bluetooth or it can have access via amazon music by asking it to play something assuming you’re a prime member or have amazon music.

[@howthehellofficial]

Can we play Any local channel of FM Radio?

[@landpet]

I don't believe so

[@ellenesposito368]

HOW DO YOU TURN ON LIGHTS WITH 4TH GEN ECHO DOT?

[@landpet]

You need to get an Alexa compatible smart home device and add it in the Alexa app. After that, it's just voice commands.

[@llrainll]

Should I get the 4th Gen, or 3rd Gen? I know you cannot get the 3rd Gen with clock anymore 😭 ! I think I may get 4th Gen

[@landpet]

4th gen is a little better.

[@Weeping_Willow]

🤩Great🙌Review❣👏

Thanks!

[@Chipchase780]

The 3rd gen dot looks like an ash tray, spherical shape is nicer.

[@landpet]

I could see that

[@ellenesposito368]

HOW DO YOU PLAY MUSIC WITH 4TH GEN ECHO DOT? DOES IT COST MONEY??

[@landpet]

I have Amazon Prime and it lets me play music on it. It's included in that price. If you want more of a music selection, Amazon offers a music subscription.
