We mainly use this model as an alarm clock in the bedroom with the camera shuttered. We use it for the daily briefings, alarms, listen to our favorite music while dressing, weather reports home and other locations, and any questions we need answers to. I have the Echo Show 2nd addition in the kitchen where we use it for many things, but i really like it as a photo frame slide show that runs all the time. Just so you know the 5 will also do the slide show and play the music.

I absolutely love this product! I got it to replace our Echo Spot due to the size being smaller than the larger show and price being cheaper. It is so much better than the spot. For one, I can see it!!! Sound quality is good, (additional) base is good quality, doesn't take up much room, picture quality is good and home screen options are fun. Would definitely recommend this above the spot any day!!!

I have Alexa devices all over my home. This mini is in my Master Bedroom and keeps me connected to my Ring Doorbell right from my bed. I use it to order pizza, find Best Buy deals of the day, set routines for my day, check the lenght of time for my morning commute in traffic, make my grocery list, control my Nest Thermostat and so many more tasks. A win, win!

I admit I had my eyes on this baby for a while. Finally broke down and bought it. It’s AWESOME!!! I have it in my bedroom and it’s the perfect alarm. I can also listen to my favorite Internet show, Elvis & Friends, each Sunday morning Couldn’t keep it on my phone but it’s perfect here. I’m still learning all the uses but I love it!

I have the original Echoe Show which we are enjoying the ease of use, Alexa responds quickly and correctly to each command. It was bit pricey being first release. Then, this 5” mini Echoe Show that cost fraction of the original Echoe Show did just as good as the bigger one. Responds to the commands and the screen is big enough. Been buying this smaller/cheaper version for gifts which were very much appreciated. Very happy with this mini Echoe Show.
