    Nice product, I was disappointed that it wouldn’t play music from YouTube without purchasing a subscription. I have an older Echo Dot and this isn’t an issue. Unable to capture a photo with this device

    Great Way for my elderly parents to see their Ring Camera, and who is at the door without getting up. Also stay in touch with the weather, music, and asking Alexa information. Will Recommend, just wish it responded a bit quicker.

    The Echo Show 5 is really good. The screen is clear, the sound is solid for its size, and it’s super convenient for checking the weather, watching videos, or controlling smart home devices. It’s small but surprisingly useful, and it fits perfectly on a nightstand or desk.

    The echo is awesome. Small yet big enough to see the screen. I love listening to music and using Alexa great as an alarm as well.

    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.

    So far it's been great learning all the things this little device can do. Alexa learns from your asking questions. It works great with my 2 Blink doorbell.

    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.

    I WISH I COULD RETURN IT, BUT CAN'T!

    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?
