I set up the M5 and it isn’t great at picking up voice commands. It also seems to have trouble with stability.
I have 2 of the Atoms; they’re janky and need to be reset often, it doesn’t pick up your voice very well, and you can barely hear the responses. 2/7
Thanks. Other 2 devices that I’ve bought out of excitement that will keep taking dust :( I’ll try the “voice” and let’s hope that I’ll have time to set it up! 🙈
