The result? The new Echo Dot can now operate as a mesh Wi-Fi extender for existing Eero networks.
After all, at the end of the day, there’s only so much this little orb can do.
If you have an Eero Mesh Wi-Fi System, the latest Echo Dot adds up to 1,000 square feet of Wi-Fi coverage to your home.Īfter four iterations of the Echo Dot, Amazon got creative with the latest model when it comes to offering up fresh features. That said, it’s clear that the Echo is making strides to bolster its sound quality, and the latest edition would make a fine addition to your kitchen for some cooking tunes and controlling your smart home. It’s still not a smart speaker capable of holding a candle to options like the Sonos Roam or even the larger Echo (full-sized), though those alternatives will cost two or threefold what a single Dot will ring up at. Selections from Kendrick Lamar and Childish Gambino held more weight than they did when sampled on older generations of the Dot, exemplifying that Amazon wasn’t bluffing when it touted strengthened sound quality. However, audio quality did get a noticeable bump this time around and is more adept at handling tracks with deeper bass notes. The reality is that thanks to its diminutive footprint, there’s a ceiling to how dynamic Amazon’s Echo Dot smart speaker (5th generation or otherwise) can sound. That kind of proclamation is a tall order for any speaker, much less one that weighs in at just under 11 ounces. Amazon says the full-range driver powering the Echo Dot makes it the “highest excursion speaker of any Echo Dot,” promising improved clarity and up to twice as much bass as the Dot that came before it. The Echo Dot is outfitted with some intriguing new audio components. With improvements to sound quality, temperature regulation and built-in Eero mesh, the 5th generation is better than ever.
