    I use it at my reception and it’s so helpful. It reads out task and play low volume classical music as well. It reads out reminders and schedule appointments with ease.

    The Amazon Echo 3rd Gen is a versatile smart speaker with excellent sound quality, offering deep bass and crisp vocals for its size. Its voice assistant, Alexa, provides seamless control over smart home devices and access to a wide range of skills. The compact design fits well in any space, and the fabric finish adds a modern touch. While it lacks some advanced features of newer models, it delivers great value for its price and reliable performance for everyday use.

    Awesome little device, upgraded from a Lenovo smart clock to this. The audio quality is spectacular! It’s easy to setup, if you’re familiar with amazons ecosystem. Love that I can check my ring cameras with my voice. If you want a smart alarm clock, I’d recommend this one.

    I bought this device mainly becuase I have a Ring Doorbell and would like to see who is at my door easily than pulling my phone out. This thing works as expected and the video quality is actually very clear. There is also a camera built in which can be covered with a slider to protect your privacy but I keep it on to monitor my home in case I need to. Overall great purchase I made.

    I purchased this item mainly for the hands free options. I wanted to be able to turn on pandora while washing dishes or cooking and it has worked for that and more. Now that I have it I wonder why I didn't get it sooner. Set up was easy too.

    I am enjoying the show. I like the fact that you can drop in at anytime. I gave mine another name to keep it from getting confused with my other Alexa. I recommend buying the stand in which I am going back to purchase. It fits perfect on my night stand.

    This device is really handy for when I’m trying to see my recipes in the kitchen or what I’m washing dishes and trying to FaceTime or talk about. It’s really heavy to be see all schedules timers for when I’m cooking and a lot of other things.

    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?

      Posted .

      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
