One person said it's missing a temperature sensor and gave it 3/5 stars even though it says it doesn't have one.
Another said "Volume increases automatically during commercials" and gave it 1/5 stars which isn't a function of the device but whatever streaming service they are using.
Another gave it 3/5 and complained you can't view your home cameras even though it explicitly states thats not a feature.
Another said "The clock disappears when playing music" and gave it 3/5 stars then in the review said the clock is too small to read even though Amazons photos even show what it looks like when playing music.
Another gave it 1/5 stars because it doesn't have line out even though it says in the description it doesn't.
The people reviewing this are just too dumb to own it and should have fully read the products description before buying it. I'm sad Amazon took away the ability to comment on peoples reviews.
Personally if I didn't already have a Echo Show 5 in my bedroom as my alarm clock I'd be buying this.

The BAD, screen glitches in a few months. Also really bad you can set alarms without WiFi connected.
Other than asking a few fact questions now and then or setting an alarm, that's about all it's good for imo.
Older version looks better having the whole face be a screen. Don't really need a speaker taking up what could be the screen. 2024 model doesn't look good.
I feel the device is worth $20. Figure there getting tons of info and research on you when using it.
Built-in temperature sensors in certain Echo devices can detect ambient temperature. Your Amazon Smart Thermostat can use these readings to better maintain the desired temperature in your home. OR can use the built-in temperature sensor to control any smart plugs in your home to turn those smart plugs on and off (e.g. can connect fan to those smart plugs and turn it on and off at certain temperature).
