Amazon will let you order it but has no ETA on Availability. For me, well worth $10 both for alarm clock functions, and for visible countdown of all the timers I set.
Just be aware these have been on sale for less. In late December they were $22/$32. (Without/With Clock) and at another time this year maybe around early February?
LMAO - you have no idea how they sound yet feel qualified to diminish the deal.
I mean, they are underwhelmed by the idea of a smaller speaker compared to what they are used to and then are asking for opinions on the sound quality. If you're into audio, it's a fair question as you'll lose a lot of depth of sound.
Personal opinion: if you're any kind of audiophile and want to use this mostly to stream music, it won't have the same depth you're used to with a full-sized Echo. If you're ok knowing that going in, they don't sound bad for the size they are. I use one to stream music while I'm cooking in the kitchen, but there are so many noises going on I'm just getting it as background noise and it works well. While it does stream music fine, I think the primary design focus of this is using it as a voice assistant and it has better-than-decent sound quality for music. I like the minis and use them frequently, but when I want to really get high quality audio I go to my full sound system.
I'll bite. Traded in a 3rd gen. Hopefully the mics are a bit better on these new ones. Use it to drive a whole home audio setup with some echo flexes and overall its been working pretty well.

I'm seeing the alarm clock with a free smart bulb too

If you're any kind of audiophile, you don't use these at all, though. For the rest of us peons, these things are pretty decent, and equate to a solid mini speaker 🤷
if you own an Echo, then you know what to expect, and this is just a small echo. it packs decent sound, but don't expect it to match a bigger/louder speaker

3rd gen is much better than the originals; I don't expect a glorified coaster to give me the experience a $3k Bose system would. Let's get real here.
