Plug Alexa into your wall with Echo Flex. The compact smart speaker isn't the best music device, but it's incredibly versatile when placed where you wouldn't any dangling cords. Bundle it with a motion sensor or night light for added super powers.
The Echo Flex plug-in speaker is the most affordable way to add Alexa voice assistance to your home.
In our Echo Flex review, we loved its hassle-free set up and nifty accessories and gave it a 4 out of 5 star rating. Although it lacks the audio quality of the Echo Dot, its routine-friendly motion sensor adds smart skills to any space.
Design-wise, the Echo Flex looks more like a plug-in carbon monoxide detector than an audio device. Its 5.3-ounce 2.8 x 2.6 x 2.0-inch plastic shell is compatible with traditional wall outlets.
Like Amazon's family of Echo Speakers, it features a status light, dual microphones, a button to wake Alexa and a microphone switch. There's a 3.5mm like on on either side and unlike the Echo Dot, there are no volume controls for its 0.6 inch built-in speaker.
The Echo Flex shines as an intercom enough to communicate a brief message or last-minute reminder. In real world tests we could hear the person on the other line clearly when calling someone.
