While the second-generation Echo Dot is a small, high-performance smart speaker, one thing it can not do is deliver exceptional sound quality. The GGMM D6 portable speaker turns the Dot into a 360-degree speaker that also ships a rechargeable battery for up to eight hours of wireless listening.

The sound quality of the larger Echo will be better than what you get with that, but the echo does not have the portability of the GGMM D6. For a handful of Amazon reviewers, the device stopped working after a few months. But with the overwhelming number of 168 positive reviews, we would be sure to buy this speaker.
