has provided a Drop In feature that is designed to recreate the feeling users get when their closest family or friends drop by for a visit, or when they walk into another room to talk with someone in their family. The same feature is also available for the Echo Dot, Echo, and Echo Plus smart speakers, though it enhances the experience specifically on the Echo Spot by letting users virtually visit the living room to see their loved ones.

Similar to other Echo devices, the Echo Spot is powered by the second-generation far-field technology that uses four microphones. The device also has an acoustic beam-forming technology and enhanced noise cancellation support. There is Bluetooth connectivity and a 3.5mm Aux-in port to let you transform the Echo Spot into a home entertainment system. Moreover, music lovers can browse songs on the device by asking Alexa to show or play songs by genre, artiste, decade, composer, and film language. There is also a multi-room music feature that helps synchronise music across multiple Echo devices.

When idle, the Echo Spot can be used as a nightstand to view clock or calendar, catch weather update, set music alarms, or turn room lights on and off. The device has a 1.4-inch driver and measures 104x96x91mm. All in all, the Echo Spot sits between the highly affordable Echo Dot and the premium Echo Show.

“Echo Spot combines the popular design of the Echo Dot with the added benefit of a display,” said Jayshree Gururaj, Director –
