Just as Echo, Dot connects to the Alexa Voice Service to play music, make calls, send and receive messages, provide information, news, sports scores, weather, and moreÃinstantly. Moreover, it can hear you from across the room, even while music is playing. As is the case with Echo, when you want to use Amazon Echo Dot, just say the wake word ÃAlexaà and Dot responds instantly. If you have more than one Echo or Echo Dot, Alexa responds intelligently from the Echo you're closest to with ESP (i.e. Echo Spatial Perception). Echo Dot can connect to your speakers or headphones over Bluetooth or through a 3.5 mm audio cable to deliver stereo sound to the speakers you choose.
