    I would much rather pay more money and have full control over my devices without the ads and added crap. It sounds good, but doesn’t work with AirPlay or Chromecast. I understand what the major players are doing, but the big three ecosystems choosing not to support features that the other ones have is frustrating. Amazon products are basically adware, you pay a lower price in exchange for a worse experimece, data collection and constant ads.

      Hi ElizabethM, I’m sorry to hear about the lag you’ve experienced compared to your larger device. I know how important speed and responsiveness are. You might try a few quick steps, such as restarting the device, checking for the latest software updates in the Alexa app, and making sure it’s connected to a strong Wi-Fi signal. If you’re still experiencing issues after trying these steps, I recommend reaching out to Amazon Customer Support at 1-888-280-4331. Thank you for providing feedback, have a wonderful day!

    Disappointed that this came with a white cord. Why Amazon would do this is crazy. I haven't set it up yet but I figure it sets up just like the other Echo(s) I have and have set up, which was fairly easy.

    This Alexa show turns off all the time on me or starts playing music. It also shuts down out of nowhere and I have to turn it back on the screen. I cannot make brighter. I’ve tried everything tech-support. It won’t go any brighter. It’s awful. I’m so upset. I only had two weeks to return it and now I’m stuck with it.

      Dear Helloamy,

      Thank you for sharing your experience with the Echo Show 5. We're truly sorry to hear about the issues you've been dealing with — random shutdowns, music playing on its own, and screen brightness problems are not the experience we want for our customers, and we completely understand your frustration.

      We'd like to help you troubleshoot a few things that may resolve these issues:

      Random shutdowns and music playing: This can sometimes be caused by an unintended Alexa trigger or a software glitch. Try performing a factory reset by going to Settings > Device Options > Reset to Factory Defaults. This often resolves persistent software-related issues.
      Screen brightness: Go to Settings > Display > Brightness and make sure Adaptive Brightness is turned off, then manually adjust the slider to your preferred level. Adaptive Brightness can sometimes keep the display dimmer than expected based on ambient light.
      Software update: Ensure your device is running the latest software by going to Settings > Device Options > Check for Software Updates.

      If these steps don't resolve the issues, please don't give up — we want to make this right. Reach out to our support team at 1-888-280-4331 or through the Alexa app. Given the multiple issues you're experiencing, our team can evaluate whether a replacement device may be the best solution for you, even beyond the initial return window.

      Your satisfaction matters to us, and we're committed to helping you get the most out of your Echo Show 5. AmazonDevices

      Hello MatthewM! Thank you for your feedback on the Amazon Echo Show 5. I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing screen issues with your device. A screen that keeps going out can indicate a hardware defect or power supply problem. Try unplugging the device for 30 seconds and plugging it back in, ensure it's using the original power adapter, and check that the firmware is up to date through Settings. If the screen continues to malfunction after these steps, exchanging the unit is the right decision as this appears to be a hardware issue. I appreciate you sharing your experience and hope the replacement unit works properly for you! AmazonDevices
