About Product
Sound and Size
The Echo Dot (5th Gen) Charcoal measures 3.9 x 3.9 x 3.5 inches and weighs 10.7 oz. A 1.6 inch full range driver covers 62 Hz to 19 kHz with mono playback, meaning audio plays through one channel instead of separate left and right.
Voice and Tap Controls
Alexa plays music, podcasts, and audiobooks, handles timers, reminders, weather, and news, and controls compatible smart home devices. Tap controls pause a song, end a call, or stop a timer, and a tap snoozes an alarm.
Connectivity and Sensors
Dual-band Wi-Fi supports 2.4 and 5 GHz networks, and Bluetooth A2DP streams audio to or from a mobile device. The hardware also has built-in motion and indoor temperature sensors.
The Echo Dot (5th Gen) Charcoal suits kitchens, bedrooms, or studies as a compact voice controlled speaker.
