    I have two dots and two big and round. I learned that pairing the two dots with in 4 to five feet in the right location you will get some really good sound and improved bass.

    The small echo dot is not bad if you live in a small apartment building. I leave to do laundry with music blaring and I can hear it down the hall. So if you're on a tight budget its worth it. Man my neighbors would hate me if I got that bigger one 😆 a girl can dream.

    Hey, something that might interest you. A couple of days ago my Amazon account was closed with no warning for after hours of wasted time they're telling me it's for excessive returns which I think is an error but that's beside the point. When they closed my Amazon account all my Amazon devices that I own for years primarily all my Echo devices stopped working. I lost access to the Amazon Photos and Prime Video which I pay for. So apparently the devices you already own are subject to be disabled by Amazon on your perceived shopping habits! I assume the same applies to all other Amazon devices and services like fire OS tablets, Ring cameras, and probably AWS as well. Just wanted to make other people aware of this because they definitely don't tell you this when you buy your hardware and services.

      The way I structure is the channel is the coined "Honeymoon Phase" which the first impressions/unboxing of the device. This is usually when you are excited at the initial part of discovering a new device and its capabilities. The latest tech is always exciting. You can also relate this to relationships of the honeymoon phase. Honeymoons don't last forever and after it's over I have a more structured, realistic, serious review of living/using the device and see if it really is worth it and if you "Gotta Have It". Hope that helps, maybe I need to make a video clarifying that lol
