Amazon has suggested those looking for a richer and louder sound try the Echo Dot for music playback.
The built-in USB port also means users can charge their phone or add a nightlight or motion sensor, which can also be found on Amazon.
The Echo Flex also has a ‘Microphone Off’ button, so Alexa-owners don’t need to worry about waking up their virtual assistant when they don’t mean to.
One happy customer said: “Our Echo Dot is set up in the living room which meant a lot of going back and forth between kitchen and living room during cooking to set timers and ask about conversions. I bought the Flex… and it is the perfect solution.
“There can be a bit of interference between the two Alexa’s if you speak too loudly, but I switch the microphone of the Flex off if it is an issue (i.e. if I’m in the dining room yelling at the living room Echo).
“The actual plug is a great size and the fact that there’s no cables is perfect for the kitchen/small spaces.”
