Why we picked it
Love Alexa at home? Echo Auto lets you take her on the road, using the Alexa app on your phone and your car's speakers.
Alexa-Enabled:� While Alexa can't chip in for gas, she can help you stream content from your favorite apps hands-free. You can also use your voice to make calls, add items to your to-do list, and review your calendar.
Echo Auto was built for the road. With 8 microphones and far-field technology, it can hear you over music, A/C, road noise, and annoying backseat drivers.
Need a moment to yourself? You can instantly disable the microphones with the touch of a button.

The echo auto I received was not very responsive. It worked around half the time.
I called tech support six times. Each time they told me the same thing -- reset, re-pair the Bluetooth, let it run in the background, turn battery usage to high. It never solved the problem.
I asked for a replacement unit. They refused to send me a new unit and kept insisting I try to troubleshoot it. When I finally got too frustrated with the unit, I asked to return it. They told me the 30 day return period had ended and I couldn't return it. After elevating the matter, they finally returned my money.

This auto-connects to the phone when I start up the car and it hears me pretty well with road noise and the stereo up. Sometimes it misses an Alexa command, but I also have a pretty soft voice and it's setup on the passenger side center vent.
The sound quality is solid enough for me, especially for a bluetooth connection. I haven't tested the voice call functionality mostly because I don't talk on the phone much. I got it for $15 on prime day and I'd agree $20 should be about the max price on this.
The "make calls" function is limited to Echo calling (not placing or answering cellular phone calls) so it is a poor replacement for a decent BT adapter.
