The orb-shaped device is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and has a flat base which gives it the perfect angle to view on a desk, a bedside table or a kitchen counter. Users can personalise the screen with a clock face or their favourite photos.

Good looking bit of kit, alarm, clock etc; all works really well

The Spot hits a number of key areas: it's the best designed of the Echo range, giving it immediate appeal. Whether in the bedroom, on a kitchen worktop or side table in the living room, the Spot fulfils its role as master of all.

'Alexa Calling' video calls; Cute design; Sounds pretty good considering the size; The smartest radio alarm clock you'll ever find

The diminutive Echo Spot is a smart speaker unlike any other. And as a bedside companion, it's uniquely entertaining.

Adding a screen to the Echo smart speakers has proved a winner for Amazon, particularly here with the diminutive Echo Spot. With the clear, round display, the Echo Spot becomes the perfect bedside companion, giving you a clock and more information on requests, plus the ability to make video calls. The only potential downside is the upcoming Echo Show 5, which gives you a traditional 5-inch screen in an Echo and is going to be cheaper than the Echo Spot when it's released late in June. If you can hold off, wait until we've had a chance to review this new model; if you want the smallest, screen-enabled Echo then the Echo Spot remains a quality product.

Useful screen; Video calling works well; Compact dimensions; More intuitive than audio-only Echo devices;

My wife loves the echo spot. Uses it in the kitchen for facetime and music.

Always said that I would not but anything like this, however I wanted a new alarm clock and speaker to listen to music on iPod and phone. Love the clock and how it dims at night and alarms can be set just by asking Alexa does everything I wanted and more, we now have the Echo Spot, an Echo and 2...
