I would recommend this to a friendNice sleek design
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Echo Show 5 replaces an earlier generation model that started glitching. We are hoping this one lasts a little longer. Would give 5 stars but the support service that Amazon provides for these products is dismal.
I would recommend this to a friendEcho Show 5 FORCE UNREMOVABLE ADS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All Amazon Echo Show devices now force unremovable ads on the screen. Even if you go through every menu and disable all the suggestion settings, the ads still appear. It’s especially frustrating because there’s no option to keep the display fixed on something simple, like a clock face or personal photo slideshow; it constantly cycles through content you didn’t ask for. Secondly, it tends to be sluggish and unresponsive. For a device that sits in your home and is supposed to feel personal, this feels intrusive and unnecessary. Because of these limitations, I ended up switching to the Google Nest Hub instead, and I love it. It works much better as a dedicated clock or photo frame without the distraction of constant ads and forced content. If you’re mainly looking for a smart display that can double as a clean clock or photo frame, the Echo Show is no longer a good option.

Posted .Dear Calvy,
Thank you for providing such a detailed and thoughtful review of the Echo Show 5. We genuinely appreciate your candid feedback about both the advertising content and performance issues.

About the performance:
The sluggish response times you've experienced are not up to our standards
This compounds the frustration with the content issues
We are taking your feedback seriously and will share it with our product development team, particularly regarding:
The need for true content control options

I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Sound quality
Too many ads
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .Hello, Dean. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on the Echo Show 5. I am sorry to hear about the issue you are having with the device. I have some recommendations to try and help. First, I recommend ensuring the device has the latest software by asking Alexa to check for updates or by going to settings, then device options, and then checking for updates. I also recommend ensuring the microphone is not muted, indicated by a red light on top of the device. If you have further questions or need assistance I recommend contacting Amazon customer service, available 24/7. You can reach them at 1-888-280-4331. I hope this helps. Have a great day!

I would recommend this to a friendWhite cord with black Echo ....
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
