This second-generation Echo Spot has a touchscreen, as well as a variety of custom clock faces. And since it’s Alexa-enabled, Grandma or Grandpa can also use their voices to do everything from set alarms to check the weather and much more. CNET’s David Carnoy says, "You can also ask Alexa to call loved ones, make household announcements, audibly drop in on other Alexa-enabled devices in your household or get alerts and audio from your compatible smart doorbell." He adds that although it’s compact, it sounds decent for what it is.
