But foldable prongs are not always helpful.  That’s true for non portable uses for the speaker, since this speaker needs external power to work. One problem is that foldable prongs can loosen over time. Thus, they can develop faulty connections. Therefore, this might cause poor operation and speaker cutouts. Now it’s true that you are not likely to plug and unplug the Echo Dot 2 power cord much. So we feel that folding prongs would give little added value here.  In fact, they could cause lots of problems instead.
