    I had the original echo show and this is a good upgrade as sound quality is better and has bigger screen.

    It's a nice product you can tell it's Amazon because they're always trying to sell you items it's much different from the Google. The size of the screen and the colors I really am impressed with. Alexa's knowledge is somewhat disappointing but a nice variety of games. Purchase during Black Friday and like the value other than that probably would not have purchased it

    I gave this to my wife along with the Blink mini camera as a Christmas gift. We recently got a new puppy and the combination of the Echo Show and camera was a great investment for her to check in on the puppy when we are out. The Echo Show works great too.

    Love the Echo 8!! Alexa keeps us informed with weather alerts, temps, alarms, info, music, Amazon orders, shipping arrivals. The bass is awesome. IT was super easy to install!! Its fantastic to use in cooking and baking, recipes use.

    The Echo Show works well and integrates easily with my Amazon account. I use my Amazon account to listen to movies and music. The 8" version is the ideal size for this purpose. Set-up was easy and our new Echo was up and running in just a few minutes.

    Just purchased this Echo show 8 as an update from our echo show 5. The screen seems huge and I love it. We use Alexa alot in our household so I was so excited to be bringing home a more updated version.

    Perfect addition to the kitchen. The visual timers are particularly useful so to not have to keep asking Alexa how much time is left, and the screen size is big enough to be seen/heard without being obtrusive and taking up too much valuable counter space.

    Probably the most fun and easy to use thing we have naught in a long time. Naught it on sale and love it can even go on Netflix and watch movies and if you have a ring doorbell or others I’m guessing you can watch life or record. It’s been amazing.

    I love the Echo 8. It's in my living room and large enough to see it from anywhere on the room. I use the echo 5 fir next to my bed and other rooms. Love them both to view my ring security devices as well as view recipes asks questions and much more.

    I was looking for a alarm for my son. I love it, the only issue is that there is no way you can made an alarm with specific days of the week. What I did love is that my kids can call me when I’m at work, or can grand parents and look at them as well.

    I love the show! Linked to my google calendar and the day before I have an event, it starts to display as a reminder. It has been great during the pandemic for video calls, and my niece just found out how to do conference calls with the lastest update!

    I have actually purchased 3 of the Amazon-Echo Show 8. One for myself and 2 as Christmas gifts for my adult daughters. I love mine and I'm sure my daughters will love theirs as well. It keeps me updated with what's going on these days. The price was great!

    Have grown to love having an Amazon device around. They play music (my favorite), provide quick data-find answers, and allow for phone_calls/find_phone, as well as many other tasks.

    Upgraded to this from an echo dot 2nd gen and it's basically like going from an old iPod shuffle to like an iPod classic. Now I can see everything I'm telling my echo device to do while it's doing it. Like I can see all my other Amazon devices and control what to do with them with the touch screen, you can watch YouTube and even Netflix on this little thing, and playing music on here is even convenient.

    I love drinking my morning coffee and listening to the news. My kids love to shower and listen to their music. Also being able to see who is at the front door while doing any of these things is awesome. “Shhhhh! Be quiet kids, we don’t want ?@&$ to know we are home!”

    I was surprised at how great the speaker was as I was already used to the lower quality echo dots. This thing it loud and clear! Love the cool features such as showing the live feed on my cameras. Bought on sale at a great price, might possibly invest in a second one.

    Still learning all that this little jewel can do, but so far it has exceeded expectations on all levels. Got one for my wife for Mother's Day, and also one for each of our grown girls and their families. Everyone loves the drop-in feature, especially the grand kids.
