With a spherical shape and a concave cutout that houses volume and mute controls, the Echo Dot Max is the 2025 upgrade to the 2022 Echo Dot that has louder bass due to a new 0.8-inch tweeter and a 2.5-inch woofer, as well as a custom AZ3 chip from Amazon with a built-in AI Accelerator, enabling the new Alexa+ AI service. Complete with ambient light, temperature, ultrasonic, and wifi radar sensors, it can detect your presence in a room even without sound.The speaker also supports Wi-Fi 6E for faster speeds and has a built-in smart hub that supports Matter, Zigbee, and Thread Border Router. If you have compatible Fire TV devices, you can pair two Echo Dot Max speakers for more immersive sound. While the bass is louder due to the updates, the woofer is also smaller, meaning the overall sound may not be as powerful. Still, it’s sufficient for most rooms. If you want to level up, you’ll want to invest in the Echo Studio, which has three 1.5-inch full-range drivers and a 3.75-inch woofer.
