    I find the Echo Show 5 is a great device for information and notifications. I can ask it to see my front door as to who is there and speak to them. I recommend this device to anyone for security and information.

    I like the product - I think. But this is based on the box, since I bought it as a Christmas gift for someone else and it's not Christmas yet, you Bozo's. As an aside, do you think Best Buy really selects a winner for the $400 gift card or do they just tell you that so we fill out these silly product reviews?

    Very slow and very buggy. I had to factory reset it a few times to make it work, but it is still slow, sluggish, and buggy. Basically, an expensive clock with some photos running in the background.

      Hello BestbuyShopper,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Echo Show 5. I'm truly sorry to hear that you're experiencing such significant performance issues—slow response times, sluggishness, and bugs—even after performing multiple factory resets. This is definitely not the experience we want you to have with an Echo product.

      The issues you're describing—persistent lag and glitches despite factory resets—suggest there may be a deeper hardware or software problem with your specific unit. While the Echo Show 5 is designed to be much more than a clock with photos, I completely understand your frustration when the device isn't performing its smart features reliably.

      Here are a few additional steps that might help if you haven't tried them already:

      Check for system updates in Settings > Device Options > System Updates
      Verify your Wi-Fi connection strength and consider moving the device closer to your router
      Ensure your router firmware is up to date as network issues can cause significant lag

      However, given that you've already performed multiple factory resets without resolution, I strongly recommend contacting Amazon Customer Service at 1-888-280-4331 or through your Amazon account. They can run diagnostics on your device and likely arrange a replacement, as this level of persistent performance issues on a new device isn't normal and suggests a defective unit.

      Your feedback is valuable in helping us identify when products aren't meeting the quality standards our customers expect, and I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. AmazonDevices
