The newest Echo Dot smart speaker is now more than half price in Amazon's huge Black Friday sale for a limited time - and people swear it's 'better than its predecessor'.

Called a 'game changer' by customers, more than 10,000 of the cult home gadget have sold this month alone. But what's new about the fifth generation Echo Dot?

According to Amazon, the latest gadget has improved audio experience with clearer vocals, deeper bass, and vibrant sound. In fact, people seem happy with this feature as many have set up a budget home cinema.

"If you’re interested in setting up a quick and easy surround sound setup, you can save yourself some time and get a couple of these," one five-star review reads. "We have a Sonos setup in one room which is great, but have chosen an Amazon Home Cinema setup with our Amazon Fire Stick using a bunch of Echo Dots and to be honest the experience is near identical. I would recommend these for anyone considering a home cinema setup on a budget."

A temperature sensor has also been added to keep your home comfortable, as you can now control the AC with voice control. A third new feature is the tap control system which means you can pause and resume music with ease.

The bestselling product in its category, shoppers are rushing to get hold of one before Christmas, and it's not hard to see why after taking a quick scroll of the rave reviews.

“Completely awesome,” one shopper wrote. “This wifi speaker exceeded my expectations! Incredible sound quality, seamless connectivity with WiFi, Amazon music, and other music apps. The sleek design makes it a must-have for any music and shopping lover. It's transformed my listening experience. Highly recommend it!”

A second customer agreed, as their five-star review reads: “I bought this Dot during Black Friday and am truly astounded by its quality. It replaces a second generation Dot that I was able to trade in and the difference in audio quality is like chalk and cheese. For such a small ‘ball’, the bass coming out of it is incredible. If you get the chance to buy this on offer, just do it, you won't be disappointed.”

For many, it was a welcome Christmas present last year - great news if you're planning to surprise a loved one. “I bought this for my husband who had been wanting one for ages - I didn't see the point,” one customer wrote. “Oh my, I have to eat my words! Brilliant, any doubters out there - give it a go, it's amazing and there are so many features.”

What to know about the Echo Dot smart speaker

The Echo Dot is a hands-free speaker designed to play music or podcasts, make calls, report on the weather, and answer whatever questions you may have with the power of Alexa. It can even be used to control compatible smart home devices with your voice, handy if you want to turn the heating up on a cold winter’s morning without leaving your bed.
