You can't sync yet. They are all seperate although you can share the skills.

Only difference is the echo has a superior speaker. I have both.

I bought the dot to hook up to my receiver for sound and in other rooms for the kids to play and wife to do some cooking.

The larger one is for my office.

Linked the Dot to a Bose Soundlink BT Speaker and use it on its cradle as a superior speaker than even the Echo. Then when we wanna get mobile we can move the Speaker wherever. It's got a 10 hour battery charge and the ability to take calls and remain BT connected to my iPhone simultaneously to my Dot.

So in a sense I can stream music from Amazon or iPhone remotely, take a call or even conference folks, or use Alexa.

It's got a ton of potential and for $39-49 (where the Dot is routinely priced at), it's just a no-brainer. It's a really powerful tool hooked into Amazon and even beyond that, the level of skills and control it can accomplish with IoT and smart-home accessories make it without question the most diverse, versatile and inexpensive foray into whole-home automation consumers have right now.
