Echo Dot with Clock: Amazon's cheap Alexa alarm clock replacement

Adding a screen for the time transforms the Echo Dot into the best bedroom smart speaker

Amazon has a new twist on its popular cut-price Echo Dot smart speaker, now setting its sights squarely on your beleaguered bedside alarm clock with a new LED display embedded in the side.

The Echo Dot with Clock is one of those true Ronseal products - it says what it does on the tin. It is literally the same as the excellent third-generation Echo Dot, but is only available in white and has a white LED display showing the time peeking through the fabric side.
