The Zigbee Hub is there a way to turn it off ?? I already have a Show 10 and a Studio with hubs.. Using the Show 10 to control my Philip blubs, I am going to install more Philip blubs an I just got 2 Echo 4th gen, how do I control all 4 hubs in my system?? How do I tell which hub to control which blub.. Also how do you remove a device from a/the Echo hub if I would want to install the Philips hub.?? Thanks in advance, John

What I want to know is if you have new echo 4 and zigbee device can you use echo 3 to controls the zigbee device. Or will I need to get echo 4 in every room

I bought one of these yesterday (to pair with the security camera system I purchased at the same time - both were heavily marked down), and this video helped immensely with understanding its functionality. For my first foray into smart-ifying my apartment, you have single-handedly broken down almost every question I had after unboxing and setting up this product. Thank you.

Now that's the best in-depth detailed video I've seen in quite a while. I was about to do a smart home automation with Amazon Echos and this is exactly what I needed. Big thanks, man!

Absolutely the best unboxing video I’ve ever watched! Very accurately explained & you’ve managed to simplify even advanced features to be understandable & concise to both a beginner-as well as a techy! Thanks so much! Great work!

Easily the finest unpacking video I've ever seen! Very nicely stated, and you've managed to simplify even complicated features such that they're comprehensible and succinct to both a newbie and a techy! Thank you very much!

Loved the Star Trek “beam me up”,laughed out loud,and I was on the head.

Thank you for explaining the audio jack and how it functions. Now, from what I learned from you, I can play my smart phone with a line cord into the Echo providing I change the input/output status on the app. Thanks again!

Very thorough, thank you! Owners of these devices don't realize exactly how much they can be used for. They really are a great wireless assistant. I only hope that future updates will allow US to choose exactly what "wake up" name we want to be saying all day every day because "Amazon, Echo, Alexa and Computer" get old fast and definitely are putting a dent in the "user friendly" and "user personalization" of owning these devices. Also, I would like to see the option of a Male voice and a Cartoon voice for children, I mean, come on Amazon, it is simple AI Coding. Again, thank you for this very educational video that should truly be provided by Amazon on their website for these devices.

They are not useful at all. Had them for years, they never do anything except stop your tv from hearing hallucinations. You always have a phone on you with voice assistants that can answer real questions like the chat gpt app.

Incredibly detailed overview video, great work.

I agree with you. This Mediatek powered Echo device by Amazon has some really cool features to help the smart home owners.

I'm so impressed with this. Thank you for this great video. My mother is blind and disabled. I'm getting her into a nursing home and this would be great to play her music and to "drop in" to talk with our her having to touch anything or press buttons!

Getting my 4th delivered tomorrow, this was helpful :)

this is so amazing, so much effort put into this video and really explicative. I have no words, THANK YOU

I'm looking to get this as my first zigbee hub since I want to start using some zigbee based sensors, but as I've seen many times in my research not all zigbee devices and hubs are made equal. Thank you for the in depth review of the functionality of the device.

thankyou, squire - probably the clearest, most useful online tutorial i've ever sat through. appreciate your style and delivery. a bit of a latecomer to such magikal smoke'n'mirrordom, (never yet spoken to my alexacated tv), we've now got a santa's reindeerload of gizmos and setting 'em up (maybe i should name 'em individually dasher / dancer / donner / blitzen...) i really believe i have learned and understood what you just did - now for the practical application thereof. stand clear... cheers from sunny brighton

I REALLY like how you created an outline of this video in your description with links for each topic. I know this takes more time but it makes your video a much better reference. I'm going to look back through some of your previous videos, now that I've seen that. WRZ 2021-07-06 Delaware County, PA

Just received mines today (2 of them), paired in the kitchen as stereo. Setup was a breathe (Factory done, plug and play), just had to create a stereo pair, wich too was a breathe. Sound is really good, much more than I expected. I was planning to eventually add a Subwoofer, but I think for the kitchen it will not be needed. My previous setup was an Echo flex connected to Logitech Sub+speakers. This replaces them for the better ! The only mistery still on is that sometimes one seems to be listening (light on), but the other one is answering ! Well anyway all works like a charm :)

just got the charchoal one recently and i love it,so many things it can control. it can even call emergency for you if you can't get to a phone. so handy.

Just ordered three more Dots because of this video. Very helpful information.

this is a very informative video, there's so many functionalities that we might not be informed of ! Amazon Echo (4th Gen) is one of the well-built models among the Amazon Echo range, inclusive of a very powerful processing unit driven by mediatek's technology enabling so many features

Wanted to know what the Echo could do regarding smart home and security. This video has answered all my questions, thank you.

One of your most viewed videos. Key take sways: 1. Do more echo device videos. 2. Do full tutorial of each device. Great job!

I really enjoy his videos

You're a doll for muting every time you say 'Alexa'. Mine would've gone craaazy. Lol

I was ready to send my echo back, couldn’t set it up to WiFi, you mentioned the red button on top, I thought this was a power button, you set me straight, set up and activated, thanks so much, Ash

Yes!!!! You are the only one who has shown me how to correctly troubleshoot connecting my Phillips hue bulbs!! For weeks I’ve been watching videos but yours did the trick. Thank you!!

The fact that you muted Alexa word so that ours don't get triggered.... Respect man... Respect!!

Very complete , you really made a major effort and it shows ,thanks for a great instructive video .

I know what I want for Christmas! This guy to come to my apartment and do all of this on my new device! ;^)

Absolutely the best editing on a tutorial - it actually makes you believe Echo devices are functiomal - unless you already own one and know better. This goes for all the people that have caught themselves yelling at their devices to perfortm the most basic functions such as "play"or "pause" with no success.

I got a twilight blue echo dot for Christmas (2020) yesterday I set it up but I still wanted to see how it works by watching the best tech guy on the planet I love u☺

I love the way you muted alexa so that your viewers' devices didn't set off every time you use the command

Great, thorough video! I do have a question. How many mics does this new Echo have compared to the Echo Plus?

@TechWithBrett

Boy... You really went into the whole Amazon thing here 😋 I don't know what it is, but something turns me off about the sphere design. Although you'd think that would be better as far as sound goes. It's cool that it has the dual auxiliary port, but I really like that it has a temperature sensor built in now. I wasn't aware of that. And I could see it being really useful as you pointed out 👍

I finally gave in an got myself for the start - though, a slightly used one... - a blue Echo Dot 4th Gen with clock :D , but without any box or instructions... and, honestly... I am blown away, since I am a technic freak who loves reading instruction manuals...which didn't come with it. The evening before I got the Echo, I 'inhaled' your video, so everything is working the way I imagined it would work. I changed not only the name of Alexa, but also changed to a male voice. Tomorrow I pick up a dark/blk. Echo Dot 5th Gen, I feel like a child in a candy store, squealing whenever I activate something new. Life is good as a tech-nerd. Thanks

you can drop in on a tablet once put in show mode as well!

A great in-depth review, Thankyou 😉
