Update: I have updated my Review to 3 stars because of the great customer support and concern from Anker
Otherwise, great customer support from eufy, very polite, knowledgable and very responsive.
I let the page stay open for at least half an hour a couple of times and nothing ever happened beyond some loading dots like you'd see on imessage. not a fan of that terrible customer support, so I sent it back
Kudos to Anker for the best and most responsive customer support I have ever encountered
Great customer service with responsive and friendly agents

The only minor quibble I have is that the microphone didn't seem as good as in the echo dot
After contacting the company they sent me a new device and they have upgraded the old ones and everything works as it should

On the other hand, almost everything else with the Eufy works as well as with the Dot, since the handful of missing features are ones I don't use even in the Dots.

-Most sounds on Ambient Noise can't be
Alexa does NOT work the same as on an Echo Dot
It did what I expected good job, seems to have trouble hearing in low noise have to speak louder in less ambient noise

I'm not sure why the tech world now loves using customers as guinea pigs, but delivering half a product to market is rather annoying and the lack of updates about forthcoming features that this thing should already have is highly disappointing

Lack of bluetooth doesn't bother me one bit and not having the latest feature set out of the box also isn't keeping me from sending it back
The next problem which I feel is a very poor integration of the Echo platform, is the lack of a sound (beep) when the wake word is heard

Picks up most commands, but has a little issue when music is playing or there is other background noise
but I would recommend this product as of today.
Who at Anker/Eufy thought it was a good idea not to implement the same ability to change the wake word that real Echos have?Finally, these devices are extremely sensitive to background noise
Can't handle background noise at all
My only complaint is that the device has a little more difficulty picking up voice commands and distinguishing what you say from background noises

Unit still doesn't support Alexa calling, which is disappointing
Maybe I had a defective one or a bad unit from the factory.
me)- the unit is sleeker and a better design than the Dot
The trade off is that with the Eufy they are much more streamlined and make the unit look nicer but they are much more (at least for me) difficult to find and control than those on the Amazon echo dots devices.
I really like Anker and all their products, they have great customer service, I think I'm just one of the unlucky ones that received a faulty unit.

When support was needed I had a very fast response.
The voice is not good when compare to similar type speakers, response is very slow.
Most responses from the unit are very delayed
It does not give an audible response when changing the volume using the volume buttons, as you can see in my video and while the lighted ring diminishes or grows when moving volume up or down it is not a good indicator of the volume level
I notice that the Genie doesn’t listen as well as the Echo Dot and the Genie’s responses are very slow in comparison

The network connection seems to drop fairly often while the connection on the Dot is more robust.
Downside, rare occasions it may lose wireless connection, but that may not be the fault of the Eufy <shrug>.
I did try it in the garage, dropping connection an then put Dot 3, worked terrific
it has lost its connection more times that I can count so far
About once a day, the device loses internet connection and WILL NOT reconnect itself without pressing the reset button and going through the setup process again
