    The Echo Show is entertaining an great at reminding me with alarms, calendars, phone contacts, etc. Still learning more uses for it every day.

    I will probably not know everything Alexa can do but she is quick to respond. I don't think the internet could be as fast. The only thing I don't like is seeing the slide show, prefer just a background.

    Purchased because it was $100 off (on sale). Wasn't looking for one, but thought I'd use it as an alarm clock (which I needed anyway). Very cool toy to have, does what you'd expect, and is fun to have around!

    I have many alexia's in my house and this one worked great until a recent update. Now it has been randomly shutting off on its own. I find myself resetting this a few times a week.

    I think this is one of Amazon best products ever. I first review the echo online and watch youtube video. It is better than I read or saw on line.

    Alexa can do it all! Having a severe hearing loss, the 'Show' gives me visuals along with captions so that I can follow what Alexa is saying!

    You need Prime Music and Prime Video to get the most from this unit. Alexa is great. She can answer any question. Great for navigation.

    A Dot is great, but this is better, in that you get visual information. Internet, pictures, timer count-down, etc.

    i bought this amazon show to replace my amazon dot in my bedroom well first of all everyone online says the camera is turned off by default but that's a lie the whole time since the minute i turned it on the camera was on , i thought i could use this as digital photo side show with lots of pictures but it only lets you have one pic, i finally went to the settings and turned off the camera, since the camera was not seeing any movement after 5 minutes the screen turned black and the only way to get the screen go back on is to say alexa, i have the ring door bell i thought when someone rings the door bell i would see them live in amazon show but that didn't happen the only thing this can do with ring door bell is if you ask alexa to show you front door live that's when it connects to ring door bell and with my high speed internet it took it over 15 seconds. i just think its useless amazon dot does the same thing with out a screen.

    Overall great product- bought it for the mother-in-law and still can't get it to read her contacts so she can call from it that way- can individually put in contacts but that is a pain in the rear.
