- JasonSmart, Stylish, and Perfect for Every RoomThe Echo Pop fits perfectly into our smart home setup — compact, great sound, and incredibly handy for everyday tasks and whole-home communication.
Pros:
Crisp sound for its size and great color options
Announcement feature is perfect for getting everyone’s attention
Adding grocery items or reminders by voice makes life easier
Cons:
Limited activation names can cause multiple devices to respond if spoken too loudly
We already have several Alexa speakers throughout the house, and the new Echo Pop was a great addition for the kids’ rooms. The design is compact but stylish — the lavender and charcoal colors both look great. Setup was simple, and the integration with our existing devices was seamless.
The announcement feature is one of our favorites; it makes calling the kids for dinner a breeze without yelling up the stairs. We also use Alexa to play music in each room or sync the entire house for a full-home sound experience, which works flawlessly. The ability to add items to our grocery list just by saying it out loud has practically replaced our old notepad.
The only minor frustration is that there are only a few wake word options, and sometimes multiple devices activate if you speak too loudly. Still, for sound quality, convenience, and price, the Echo Pop is a fantastic addition to any smart home.
Keywords: home automation, Alexa, speaker, Echo Pop, smart home - Jon WiseGreat product, poor software.The device itself is fantastic. Great sound, volume, the mic picks up commands from around the room without multiple devices answering at once. Response time is good, sometimes it will cut you off mid sentence because it thinks it knows what you want. Pretty sure it doesn't have a battery.
Aside from that I would like to take a second to talk about Alexa itself. It isn't a great application. It seems to be a bunch of containerized apps jammed together with little to no active connectivity. It is almost like there is no backbone to the system and it is just a bunch of apps individually communicating with each other one by one. Even the echo devices have trouble interacting. I have this one and a normal Echo, the Echo pop is in my bedroom and is responsible for my morning alarm among other things. I was having issues with the music being too serine and it putting me back to sleep instead of waking up. I attempted to change the settings through the other Echo device only to be told no Alarm existed. I tried to get this Echo to realize the other Echo did have an alarm set for 6, it kept telling me no such alarm existed. As to not waste anymore time I instructed Alexa to create an alarm set for 6am and it responded that an alarm already existed... "Do you want to replace it?" Yes, replace the alarm with a new one. "Something went wrong" "Do you want me to replace it?" Yes. "Something went wrong" "Do you want me to replace it?" No. It was stuck in a loop. I decided to order the steps myself, Alexa, delete my alarm a 6am. "Alarm deleted" Alexa, create an alarm at 6am. "An alarm has been created for 6am". The functionality is there, it just cannot complete certain actions without individual direct commands. It's ability to perform multiple steps in a single command are lacking, this leads me to believe it's recognition and comprehension skills are non-existent. A similar thing happened when I tried to connect Alexa with my Spotify account. My phones OS is too old to connect via mobile app so I had to get the PC app (not easy to find) and after a lengthy conversation with Alexa it came out that the PC app did not have the functionality of the Mobile app. It doesn't make sense to have two separate apps for the same product. Regardless, I asked for a workaround and Alexa got stuck in another loop of giving me instructions to connect through the PC app only for me to have to correct her about the PC version not having the capabilities. I tried to change the wording but we kept going through the same dance. IT'S LIKE TALKING TO A GOLDFISH. There is limited memory. You could have the same conversation 10 times and every time is a new experience with Alexa. It blows my mind that with all the amazing AI around today Alexa is so bad. Amazon, the huge megacorp cannot figure it out with their flagship product in the space. - Perla De la cruz venturaBest kitchen additionI love my Echo Pop I keep it in my kitchen, and it’s the perfect size. The sound is clear, and Alexa responds quickly. I also have it connected to my doorbell, so I can hear when someone’s at the door super convenient! Great little smart speaker for the price.
- AlfGood mic and soundSurprising good sound from such a little device. It's super easy to set up if you already have the Alexa app and other devices. The mic works so well that sometimes this one responds when I'm talking to an Echo in another room.
