    Great deep sounds from the onboard speaker. Amazon UI great but clunky for my level of tech ability. Find myself repeating commands more with this when compared to Googles competitive offering. Serves its purpose. Great option for a minimalist, tiny cabin or small housing customer. Smart home setup fairly simple with blink camera minus account setup with blink account page. Also Samuel Jackson available for voice commands and response. Amazon Prime video , music and shopping functions. Echo audio inter device connectivity in same home network even friends and family in other networks. Manual camera cover/slider was thoughtful.

    I am loving the world of Alexa! I have two of the 5" and this 8", and my television has it as well. I have the Alexa app on my phone, and just found out that through my phone I can say, "Alexa, make an announcement" and whatever my announcement is ("DInner is ready!") will broadcast across all my devices. When I ask Alexa to play a song, I am amazed by the sound quality.

    I purchased the larger 10" for us but realized that if I was going to get us one, I also had to get some for the family we intended to stay in touch with so ended up purchasing 3 of these during the Christmas season. Easy to set up and so far have not had any issues with either one of the three we purchased, It was a bit difficult for my parents to set up but with some help they were able to get it going.

    I initially bought this for myself and my daughter so that we could talk to each other now that I'm in a different state. But I'm enjoying it for many reasons. The sound quality is fantastic. (I ask Alexa to play all kinds of music). She also keeps me updated on the weather, reminders, and when my Amazon orders will arrive. I love the Echo Show and you will too!

    Our family loves the Echo Show, This is our second one. We've been able to listen to our music, learn new things every day. The biggest takeaway for my family is, my daughter, wakes up goes to the kitchen, and says, Alexa, show me today's recipes. And she has become an amazing cook and she's still in elementary school. Can't rave enough about the Show

    I really like the Echo devices, and the screen on this is great. If you want to display photographs, this is a far better option than a digital photo frame. I have not used it for video calls, but the screen comes in handy in many other ways. I don't think the speaker is as good as the new Dot, but still satisfactory.

    This works better than expected. We haven't used Alexa before and it can be very helpful for making shopping lists, setting timers, answering questions, and playing music. We can turn our tv on and off and we purchased a google nest thermostat that we can control from anywhere. We have many more things to try but so far it has been very helpful.

    I have had so much fun with this. It's hilarious to listen to Alexa sing and tell you jokes but in all seriousness, this is an awesome display. The pictures are superb and the sound is loud and distinctive. I love being able to video chat with my grand babies, human and fur, lol. You also have your own electric photo display without having to buy one separately. Highly recommend
