Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really enjoy echo show 5. Very sleek and handy. have a lot of features. I enjoy listening music with my echo show 5.

It works well. Its small and can be kept almost anywhere. Has a good sound for playing music and for notifications.

Excellent for using my security system for my cameras and also my refrigerator with Alexa me It makes everything easier

The Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen) is a compact and stylish smart display. I like that I can just place it anywhere without disturbing the whole vibe of the room and speakers are a great improvement from my gen1. However, its small screen and occasional touchscreen lag may limit its appeal for more demanding users.

Bought this with a $50 Best Buy rewards. Had no knowledge of what it was but thought it looked interesting so I thought Id give it a try. So excited about what it does! Love that I can hear my favorite songs just by asking! I now wake up asking what the weather will be like, and so handy to ask random questions! At this point, Im not sure how I lived without it.

It is a great product. Has a good loud sound, clear voice, easily manage, parental controls, and lots of other great features. Highly recommended.

It has awesome sound quality! I love that it’s touch screen and that you can watch stuff in it! Overall it’s a great purchase

Echo works well with smart home, nice size for bedroom

Love this show! I bought it for the kitchen, it was on sale and I wanted more speakers for music in the house. My house is large, so dropping the cash on Sonos seemed steep. I've found the latest generation Alexa devices have come a long way in sound. I'm starting to hook up speakers to the aux on some of the older dots now. I had to immediately get into the equalizer settings to turn down the bass. Sound quality is 6/10 but when it's paired with multiple other devices now, the house fills with music. I just found out it supports video calls, too. Nice bonus.

Seems to loose connection and has a lag from time to time but no major issues

Awesome little gadget that can let you do lots of different things. Great for quick answers when you are in the kitchen cooking. Ask for a specific song you got it. Nice little add on to your house.

Bought for my daughter. Got it at a great price, can connect to security cameras, take calls, view pic slideshow. Very happy.

Not the greatest terrible speed and doesn’t do what I was expecting. I should have only got a small Alexa if anything but not worth it

So far i love it. Set it up in the room of my father, who has dementia, to remind him to go to activities. I had hoped for more indepth instructions but we are working through it

Good video quality but overall kind of sluggish to use

I give the Echo Show 5 2 1/2 stars. I have tried to adapt to it, wanted to like it, but was going to return it until I learned Best Buy only allows a FIFTEEN DAY return window! This will be my last electronics purchase from Best Buy. I should have purchased this from Amazon directly, as their return policy is generous. Fifteen days is just not enough time to decide if you want to keep something, especially when you are leaning towards returning it but wanting to give it a chance. So, what makes me want to return it, or I guess now smash it with a hammer? First, it has to be told twice many time. It will acknowledge your selection, but the station won't play until you command a second time. I have rather ancient Dots, so I thought this would be an upgrade, and it is in terms of sound quality. But even there, because it is more powerful, the loudness variation from say level 2 to level 3 is much greater than with the Dot. This matters to me because I use level 2 or 3 when listening to Pandora at night, but with this unit, 2 is sometimes too low, but 3 is too loud. Another example: I'll command it to Pandora and at some point it will switch, without any command or prompting, to something else. Did I mention I wish I could return it?

Good sound for compact size. I mean you wont blow out the walls but it sounds nice. I replaced the previous 5” show with this. I’m pleased.

Love this Amazon show! My kids love listening to music on it!

Primary reason for purchase was to have ringer for doorbell / connection even if i’m not home, smarthome hub for smartlights. Added bonus is music speaker for Amazon music. Testing both Ring & Blink doorbells, & both announce on it within seconds. No need for a ringer- this does that plus! My smartlights show on hub. Took off a star because it’s not easy to control things from device screen. Find it necessary to setup on Alexa app on phone. Then it all works! Also, though Music sounds great! the Show isn’t linking to ‘my music” on my Amazon - if i tell it it to play an album from my music, It chooses something from Amazon music instead. Then goes to next thing on Amazon, not next on my device”s Amazon music. Workaround is to cast from phone to echo show- that works. Until I stop it. When i want to restart & say “play” it will play last thing that Show itself played (News, Weather), not what was playing. Even though phone shows am connected via bluetooth to Show. My very old echo dot linked to my music - this may be a more recent software update. Other than these annoyances, it does what i need, plus so much more! Alexa Show device - echo calls, announcements, video camera (which can be covered), music speaker, plus smarthome hub. A bit rough around the edges, - & not the same as show 15, but substantially les expensive- A very nice little hybrid device that does all i need and more than I expected at an affordable price!

Its Alexa, great product and easy to set up. Works flawless with Ring Door Camera. Sound is excellent for a small device.
