As a smart home lover myself, for better or worse, I have Amazon Alex with me all the time, everywhere...including my car! This is so that I can turn my lights on, turn on my heater and music as I pull up to my home.

This Amazon echo smart speaker is now back to blackfriday pricing (see my price history chart in images). Amazon is still at $49.99 at the time of this post.

This should really be the price of this all the time. It basically uses your phone as a connection. If one really wants, they can enable Alexa on their phone and bypass echo auto. I did get this as a pre order and have been using it but would not buy it again.

Not sure why you would need this if you already have the Alexa app on the phone.

looking at the amazon review, you are buying yourself trouble. worse, you will get your window smashed if you forget to take it out after parking.

Many new cars have Alexa built-in. So this would be good for older cars. As for people who say you can use your phone instead, there're several distinct advantages:

1. The car-optimized microphone array - this will become your speakerphone mic when calling by voice - especially useful if your vehicle no (or bad) handsfree microphone.
2. The blue/Green status light bar.
3. "Alexa" and "Mute" buttons.

Definitely worth the $15.

I however would NOT use the mount it comes with, and simply double side tape it in a more inconspicuous area - which would differ from car to car.

As if spying on you in the home wasn't enough now Bezos can ride shotgun in your car.

Like others mentioned in reviews...*Not worth it you'll get this for $15 for a price of $300-$500 (deductible) car window break-in at any store parking lots if you forget hiding it... your insurance premium will go up for break-in's on file.

instead use Siri or Google assistant, or Alexa app on your phone for smart home hands-free assistance.

I put one in the RV since it doesn't have Apple CarPlay.works good for handsfree changing channels on my Sirius Streaming or Music Playlists.

Right. So in what naive mind isn't that a concern?

Agreed. I use Alexa as my voice command function on phone.

I've never seen this thing for more than $29 and often at this $14 price point.

Never seen it listed at $50 and would think that's a gross expense for what it claims to do.

If you don't want to switch from Apple or Google for some car functions; I would think you're not part of the Alexa family of voice devices to begin with.

Need to move to a new neighborhood if people are breaking into cars for black plastic things that are plugged into USB outlets.

Not saying it couldn't happen. But if that's really a concern, then moving is a bigger priority.
