Amazon announced the launch of the Echo Dot 5th Gen with improved audio, Ultrasound Motion Detection, temperature sensor, and tap gesture control. It is the best-sounding Echo Dot yet, with clearer vocals and up to double the bass. It also has in-built sensors to automatically switch on lights and AC if the room gets too warm. The Echo Dot is Amazon’s bestselling smart speaker. Customers can just use their voice and ask Alexa in English, Hindi, and Hinglish –to play music, jokes, and games, control smart home appliances, set timers, add items to lists, create reminders, pay bills, and more.
The Echo Dot 5th Gen features a custom full-range driver and the highest excursion speaker of any Echo Dot, delivering clear vocals and up to double the bass. Customers can use Alexa to play their favorite songs from free and subscription-based music streaming services, and it comes in three colour variants: Black, Blue, and White. It is priced at INR 5,499 and will be available at an introductory price of INR 4,999 during Alexa’s anniversary celebrations.
Parag Gupta, Director, and Country Manager for Amazon Devices India said “Customers can leverage new capabilities for a truly ambient experience where tech simply fades in the background – like walking into a room and it lights up like magic”.
