As much as I've tried, I cannot find any info relating to the az1 machine learning model not being turned on yet. Seems bizarre for Amazon to rave about the processor and not turn it on before launching the speaker? Are there any articles you could recommend on this please? Thanks 👍
They should have a clock on ALL of them. I had always thought "why is there not a clock on these" it just seamed like a natural thing to have on them. And Now we do 👍 Yaaaaaaa 😊
YES Robin I AGREE...and What Games Companies Play on us For Marketing. & Like CRAIG Said a Bright White LED Clock On that Bigger Black One..WOW That would Really Be Nice,... as well as Being Supper Easy to SEE Day Or Night🙂
I am excited to purchase the 4th generation with the clock! I want the time on my Alexa so I won't have to ask, I want to already see it when I need to know the time. I am happy that it also displays the weather and timer. I really need this version with the time display upgrade. Thank you for the comparison!
I like it with the clock. Got $10 off. I like that it shows the timer as it counts down. It will also show the temperature. I realized one night that you can turn off the clock at night. I Love it!!!!! I did not purchase it for sound. I have Bluetooth Bose speakers in the room connected to my TV. They say the new Echo is suppose to respond faster. I have not noticed that it does. I would have purchased the larger one if it had the clock.
I like a clock on my bedside table to check the time if I wake up in the middle of the night. If I have to ask for the time, I might as well forget trying to get back to sleep because my wife will be highly pissed.
This was perfect for our bedroom. I like to have the time illuminated as I wake often. Couldn't ask Alexa what time it was as I would wake my husband. I still like the 3rd generation in my kitchen with the plug in stand.
I wasn't going to buy any smart speaker WITHOUT a display...whether it was a clock, temperature, timer, etc. Now t I have my first smart speaker and it was worth the wait. It just didn't make sense to have one without it being practical. My question is what took them so damn long?
My Echo Dot with clock is on the way. But I just received the full size Echo a and in the short time I’ve had it I do find the response time is faster, so much that it surprised me.
i have the echo dot 3rd gen with clock and love it...dont have to pull out a phone for the time....if they put a clock on the black one i would upgrade immediately
Excellent video as always. I just purchased three. I didn’t know about displaying the timer, a very good thing to have. Didn’t know that it displayed the temperature either. I have three Google Nest Displays. Have to tell you that I think that you are the best on reviewing tech products. Thanks.
Hey Craig :) Just to say that you count your seconds starting at 1 instead of 0, so 5 seconds is actually 4. It's a mistake most people do. On the bright side, your comparison test between asking and watching is really funny. Thanks for that moment :)
I've ordered the blue Dot w/clock. They updated my shipping date to 11/27. If yours is one you have to send back, you probably have mine! So, you can just shoot it to me and cut out the middle man, haha!
I got the Spot w/clock to use as an alarm clock can't wait till it arrives.. Currently uses a Dot and and my phone for the same function. Dot w/clock is on sale but note the Dot w/clock is out of stock until mid December. It came bundled with a smart light bulb which is perfect for my bedside lamp.
You are right glancing at a clock is quicker (only if you have good eyesight from a distance). Otherwise voice works. Paul was a bit hard. I saw his video already, but people did inform him that the feature had not been turned on yet and it will come to the US first. He is after all in the UK. But I agree with him. They (Amazon) should not advertise the feature unless it is ready to be launched.
Hello Nikki, I hope you are doing well. That is a good point for those who do not have the eyesight for the little clock. Yeah, I think Paul brought a different take in his video. All good points, but not deal breakers in my opinion. The saying a device is faster when it isn't active is not a good move by Amazon. Thanks for checking out the video.
@@CraigsTechTalk Well Amazon could also just inform everyone that when the feature is launched the US would be first to receive it. I’ve noticed they have mentioned it before for some features, but they don’t do it consistently. Therefore that is how there ends up being confusion as to the availability of certain features.
I can't tell you how many times that I've been laying in bed in the morning with my eyes closed and asked alexa what time it is. But it's nice now that there is a clock. I ordered mine during the black Friday sale, but it won't be arriving until next year. I'll be moving the current bedroom echo dot to another room in the house.
CRAIG..TwilightBlue Clock I Just BOUGHT X2 Of Them,,.... Though I Don't like the Idea Of Just One SMALL SPEAKER, Since you Obviously Know all these Really Good🙂 While Mentioning The Bigger ECHO Having Built in Hub +Plus Having X3 Speakers & All Bigger SOUND SOLD ME On The Better Sound 🙂So i'll Be Buying a PAIR Of Those TO..
No because if you put a clock in the regular echo it will be blocking the two tweeters, they can do it on the echo dot because there's no tweeters on the front and only one speaker so that way the watch is not ruining the music
I need help. Whenever my alarm goes off and and I click the button to turn it off it always goes on snooze so I have to go directly to the app and turn it off. How can I turn it off directly from the echo dot?
How does it sound vs the bigger size 4th gen Echo dot? They haven’t released a bigger sized 5th gen yet. The bigger 4th gen and the small 5th gen is the same price right now. Contemplating which one to get.
I couldn't connect mine to the Internet. 30 minutes on phone to Amazon Support got me nowhere. I returned it, no problem, but the replacement did the same. Bought a new router, same problem. It doesn't seem to like my ISP, but my 3rd gen dot works fine, as does my 2nd gen Echo Plus.
Hey Craig, if you still look at comments from this video, I was curious if the clock was different colors on the blue and white models? I just picked up a glacier white today to replace my clock and also add a speaker to my night stand, so I don't have to blare my main Echo in the bedroom just for audio books, etc. I like the bigger echos for serious listening while having one by the bed is nice for bedtime where it can be quieter since it's closer. Anyway, I was curious if the twilight blue dot has a blue clock, or if it's the same color white as the glacier white model. Anyway I have all three new colors now. Two full sized echo 4, twilight blue, and charcoal, and the glacier white dot, it just got. I watched this video before buying this, and it encouraged me to go ahead with my plans. Thanks again.
@@CraigsTechTalk Thanks, it's not a problem. Like I said I have all three colors in Echo 4's now. the full size are the blue and black, and the dot with clock is white. Where I have the dot with clock I was mainly curious if the darker blue over the grey would make it stand out more. However, having been through one day with different amounts of lighting, the white will do fine where it is.
It is annoying when people cut out Alexa but then leave in other wake words like Echo and Amazon. I have mine set to Echo. My father has his set to Computer.
Hi ! Quick question: If I have a fire stick TV and I simply want to send the audio to a separate Echo dot speaker in order to plug in a wired headphone in the rear port to do a bit of private listening....can I do that?
I like the new Echo but no need to buy it since my smart tv displays a clock and my Sonos has both Alexa and Google. My Sonos also listens for glass breaking and CO2 when I leave for work and notifies me on my phone.
I have the new FULL SIZE echo 4th Gen, does anybody find that sometimes when you say ALEXA, she doesn't activate, or sometimes does but then goes off in the middle of asking her something so then you have to start again? by the way, when this happens I am the only person in the room and no background noise, I'm also sitting right next to the echo?
Better value to get the 3rd gen with clock and plug it into your sound system, you showed the speaker cross section of the regular echo 4th gen with the 2 tweeters and sub... the echo dot 4th gen only has a 1.6'' woofer and no tweeters.
Hi Craig. I was very naive when setting up my GROUPS with my Amazon devices, giving them stupid names thinking I could use these instead of Alexa. I now want to delete/change/rename GROUPS but I am going in circles trying to achieve this, is there a way to do it that old people can follow? In anticipation, THANKS.
Question: On the Echo Dot (4th Generation Clock) there is an LED Clock on the face of the “ball shaped dot”….. my question….. what do the two LED dots indicate that can light up on the face of the Echo Dot to the right of the displayed time? (Obviously not the colon in the time display, but to the right of the time display). I believe the bottom dot that looks like a period after the time is indicating an alarm is set, but I am looking to know what the dot above it indicates. Does anybody know?

I appreciate you not saying Alexa 💪🏽 😂
Glad to help. Thanks for watching.
that was genius haha
"I'm just kidding, it doesn't use that much electricity" 😂
I just ordered the Twilight Blue version with a very good Black Friday price. Plus thanks for the tip on Alexa Guard, I will check it out.
For sure. $38.99 Black Friday deal is tempting. Will probably pull the trigger as well but wanted to read up first
@@tde2019 $39.99 right now on Amazon.

I like a clock on my bedside table to check the time if I wake up in the middle of the night. If I have to ask for the time, I might as well forget trying to get back to sleep because my wife will be highly pissed.
I am right there with you. My wife would kill me too. Thanks for watching this video.
i love how he filtered the word “Alexa” so he doesn’t activate ours
Will the clock face show a timer countdown for the full duration of the timer? I have a Pomodoro routine that I would love to see the countdown for.
This was perfect for our bedroom. I like to have the time illuminated as I wake often. Couldn't ask Alexa what time it was as I would wake my husband. I still like the 3rd generation in my kitchen with the plug in stand.

Love mine with a clock and my skeptical wife even loves it now.
Very cool. Glad your wife loves it now too.
Love how you sectioned the video. Keep it up bro
Thank you very much. I appreciate you saying that. Thank you also for watching. Have a great day.
Great video Craig, thanks....love the "just kidding, it doesn't use that much electricity.".
And leaving out the rest of it about it spying on him.
Hello Rod, glad you enjoyed that and I am not the only one laughing at my joke. Thanks for checking out the video Rod.
Thanks for checking out the video Northerngulf. The jury is out on the spying. 😁👍 But I know the power draw is low.
wow, i´ve never been so early for a video... Great review!.
Thank you Alex. I appreciate you checking it out.
Your time comparison "Scientific experiment" cracked me up :-)
My Echo Dot with clock is on the way. But I just received the full size Echo a and in the short time I’ve had it I do find the response time is faster, so much that it surprised me.
Mmm, love that clock! Totally agree about the new design being good for the Echo Dot but, it's too much in the bigger Echo.
Dont you have your own channel?
@@jermainortiz8682 I do.
@@SteveDOES you also have reviews. Org and stuff! You should maybe partner with Craig one day
@@SpaceStrike We were talking about a collab before COVID hit. We'll plan something one of these days. :)
@@SteveDOES yay sweet! You and Craig keep up the great work! You’d be great with him on his live stream podcasts
Great video Craig. I like the clock being in the new Echo too.

Definitely needs to be available in that charcoal color i completely agree 100%
It would look good if they can get it bright enough to shine through.
@@CraigsTechTalk true 👍
Loved your review and the sense of humour peppered into the video, definitely worthy of s subscription. Good stuff!!

Craig I think the echo with clock is great and I like the look
I have the echo dot 3rd gen, and I bought the echo show 5 just simply for the clock only But It sounds Great As Well If Not Better.
You are right glancing at a clock is quicker (only if you have good eyesight from a distance). Otherwise voice works. Paul was a bit hard. I saw his video already, but people did inform him that the feature had not been turned on yet and it will come to the US first. He is after all in the UK. But I agree with him. They (Amazon) should not advertise the feature unless it is ready to be launched.

Is there any chance for getting faster responses once the amazon activate the model for ML??? Jst eager to know
I hope so.
Bro when the first song came on I got a commercial with the same exact song 😂 UA-cams watching me
Clock is a must.
I LOVE my new echo dot 4th Gen with display!!
“they may be close, we might have to go to a replay”
Hilarious eye vs voice test. Thank you. You had me crying.
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Just got this can’t wait to say Alexa turn on my light cause am too lazy to do it myself lol 😂
I just got the echo dot with clock 4th gen on a flash sale for $40. I love it.
Very cool. Nice that you got it on sale. I love the dot with clock. Thanks for watching.
From where lol
@@dervthebeast5130 Amazon
CRAIG! Where are the live stream recordings! I was going to watch them!!!!!
Amazing that the world we now live in requires justification for having the time of day on display and is presented as an extra "feature". lol
I wish they bring back the third generation design with a clock. It looks better and occupies lesser space on my desk.
Very helpful information, well presented. Thanks!
CRAIG..TwilightBlue Clock I Just BOUGHT X2 Of Them,,....
Though I Don't like the Idea Of Just One SMALL SPEAKER,
Since you Obviously Know all these Really Good🙂
While Mentioning The Bigger ECHO Having Built in Hub +Plus Having X3 Speakers & All Bigger SOUND SOLD ME On The Better Sound 🙂So i'll Be Buying a PAIR Of Those TO..
Ya the dots sound great even if it’s just one but in stereo their great but the echos are really really good in terms of sound for the price
That second song was nice.
Regular echo have a version with clock coming?
No because if you put a clock in the regular echo it will be blocking the two tweeters, they can do it on the echo dot because there's no tweeters on the front and only one speaker so that way the watch is not ruining the music
That screen definitely makes all the difference.
I legit lol'd at the speed test
I don't like the clock one because I don't like lights when I sleep. Nor do I need a night light when I can ask what alexa what time it is
I love my echo dot with clock in blue
Got the Echo Dot with the clock on sale for $38.99
I need help. Whenever my alarm goes off and and I click the button to turn it off it always goes on snooze so I have to go directly to the app and turn it off. How can I turn it off directly from the echo dot?
Great review. What songs did you use?
Your videos are dope
Thank you very much. I appreciate you checking them out.
How does it sound vs the bigger size 4th gen Echo dot? They haven’t released a bigger sized 5th gen yet. The bigger 4th gen and the small 5th gen is the same price right now. Contemplating which one to get.
I don't understand why they don't have the clock on all Echo's , like you said , you can turn the clock off if you don't like it
I like the clock function but wish they had used a more modern rounded 'font'
It is just beautilful and very practical *.*
Yes... except the buttons on top
@@HamAndCheeze yeah, I know, but still it's a buy for me
Can i connect it as a speaker for my monitor??
? Why clock have to be facing it all time
I stick to echo 3rd gen dot. Fits bedroom shelf just right & living room cabinet
I couldn't connect mine to the Internet. 30 minutes on phone to Amazon Support got me nowhere. I returned it, no problem, but the replacement did the same. Bought a new router, same problem. It doesn't seem to like my ISP, but my 3rd gen dot works fine, as does my 2nd gen Echo Plus.

Unfortunately the clock is white on the blue one too. I wish they had RGB so we could pick our colors. Thanks for watching.

Takes up a LOT less space than many alarm clocks. Controls my light with a smart plug. Feeds audio to my bedroom Klipsch three.
you didn't mention how to use the clock alarms and any snooze... is that somewhere?
nice video, but i was wondering both echo dot come with alarms and time so whats the differnt again at . right?
51F Isn't that 10C I don't really understand Fahrenheit
Hey Craig, you live in Agoura. My sister lives in Westlake. Small world. I’m in the UK
It is annoying when people cut out Alexa but then leave in other wake words like Echo and Amazon. I have mine set to Echo. My father has his set to Computer.
I wish they had the clock one made for black
Me too. I wish they had RGB LEDs too. Thanks for watching.
Great video! Who is the royalty free music from?
Hi ! Quick question: If I have a fire stick TV and I simply want to send the audio to a separate Echo dot speaker in order to plug in a wired headphone in the rear port to do a bit of private listening....can I do that?
Because of the limitations of these devices I don’t think that would work. Not enough to reliably suggest buying one if that was your intended use
Is there any way I can connect my dot with the Alexa built into my Samsung tv ?
Please compare this and the amazon echo 3rd gen with homepod mini :)
Hi Is the sound quality good as the HomePod mini?
Is it worth upgrading from a amazon eco dot 2nd generation to a Echo Dot (4th Gen) | Smart speaker with clock and Alexa | Glacier White
Clock 4th Gen on SALE from Amazon... got 3 !
I like the new Echo but no need to buy it since my smart tv displays a clock and my Sonos has both Alexa and Google. My Sonos also listens for glass breaking and CO2 when I leave for work and notifies me on my phone.
So does the Echo.
Is there going to be a special discount on black Friday for this?
yes there is right now !
Can you please help me to get the best equalizer settings for echo dot? Please please please?
I have the new FULL SIZE echo 4th Gen, does anybody find that sometimes when you say ALEXA, she doesn't activate, or sometimes does but then goes off in the middle of asking her something so then you have to start again? by the way, when this happens I am the only person in the room and no background noise, I'm also sitting right next to the echo?
Better value to get the 3rd gen with clock and plug it into your sound system, you showed the speaker cross section of the regular echo 4th gen with the 2 tweeters and sub... the echo dot 4th gen only has a 1.6'' woofer and no tweeters.
3rd gen sounds better. I have both.
@@skizzzott the 4th is more clear which is why most prefer it
I like the Clock
Thank you.
I can't tell what volume level the new speaker is at when I say "increase" or "decrease" volume. I find I have to say "set volume to 5" or "8".
Omg so glad "Alexa" was muted
Are both echo dot 4 gen the same aside from the clock? Can you still tell Alexa play music on the one without the clock?
Hi Craig. I was very naive when setting up my GROUPS with my Amazon devices, giving them stupid names thinking I could use these instead of Alexa. I now want to delete/change/rename GROUPS but I am going in circles trying to achieve this, is there a way to do it that old people can follow? In anticipation, THANKS.
Hehe, I bought the led one for $30 off. It's a kind of needed upgrade from the 1st generation that I have
That is a great price. It was nice to see it on sale for that price. That’s gonna be a good upgrade for you.
wow im early for this amazing video!!
Wow that scientific test tho 🔥🔥
You're a Genius Man!!
sometimes you just have to drop some science on the people to prove a point. 😀👍
@@CraigsTechTalk I can't change the led light of it. It shows blue and yellow only.
Any ways to change it to red
help me Craig's Tech Talk i talkecd to amazon about my echo dot did not help me that well what should i do
I would like to be able to change the color of the clock, Red, Green, Blue, etc.
I do wish we could do that. At a minimum, I would like to adjust the color temperature. Thanks for watching.
Question: On the Echo Dot (4th Generation Clock) there is an LED Clock on the face of the “ball shaped dot”….. my question….. what do the two LED dots indicate that can light up on the face of the Echo Dot to the right of the displayed time? (Obviously not the colon in the time display, but to the right of the time display). I believe the bottom dot that looks like a period after the time is indicating an alarm is set, but I am looking to know what the dot above it indicates. Does anybody know?
LOL you didn't say is wasn't spying on you
Can your networked be hacked using an echo?
why does my echo light up when I have not asked it to do anything?
