    Meh... It's an echo with a screen.

    To be honest, the addition of the screen doesn't really change how I use an Echo, except I can use it as a visual clock as well. The processor is slow, so navigating the screens is sluggish. The price isn't bad. However, I'm not sure the value proposition is there for this size device. Maybe the larger version is better?

      Hello DaveC. Thank you for your feedback on the Echo Show 5. We appreciate you sharing your honest experience, and we'd like to highlight some features that may help you get more value out of the display beyond using it as a visual clock.

      Getting More from the Display: The 5.5" screen on the Echo Show 5 is designed to enhance your daily routine in ways that go well beyond what a standard Echo speaker can offer. You can make video calls with friends and family using the built-in 2 MP camera, view live feeds from compatible smart home cameras and video doorbells, follow along with visual recipes while cooking, see on-screen song lyrics while listening to music, stream shows from services like Prime Video and Netflix, and glance at your calendar, weather, and news headlines at a glance. You can also personalize the home screen with your favorite photos from Amazon Photos, making it a great digital photo frame when not actively in use.

      Regarding Screen Navigation Performance: If you're experiencing sluggishness when swiping through screens, here are a few steps that may help improve responsiveness: 1. Make sure your device software is up to date by going to Settings > Device Options > Check for Software Updates. 2. Restart your Echo Show 5 by unplugging it from power, waiting about 30 seconds, and plugging it back in. 3. Ensure your Wi-Fi connection is strong and stable, as a weak connection can affect how quickly content loads on the display.

      If you'd like further assistance exploring what your Echo Show 5 can do, Amazon Customer Support is available 24/7 at 1-888-280-4331. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope these tips help you discover more value in your device. AmazonDevices

    I bought it for my garage so when I'm sitting in my garage. I can look at my little echo 8 and see what's outside the garage without opening up. The door works very well. I could see front door camera. House camexpress and outside in my car port. Best thing I ever bought.

    My experience with the Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen)

    I work from home, and this device is the perfect assistant. It is great for reminders, and the additional visuals enhance the experience. I use a 4K Fire TV as my computer monitor, so I use the Echo Show as a voice remote control. When I am playing music at my desk it's nice to be able to use the screen to like, pause, or skip songs. I didn't expect to use this device so much but now that I have it I wish I had bought one sooner. The only thing that could be made better is the mic sensitivity. For me, it's a solid 4.5 stars

    This is the third one I bought. I gotta love it. They are awesome for people who need reminders and alarms set. Set routine commands for daily use. I get weather and traffic after I turn my alar off then it plays music until I say headed to work. Set your preferences.
