Customer Ratings & Reviews

I recently added the Amazon Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen) to my smart home setup, and I have mixed feelings about its performance. Setting it up was straightforward and hassle-free, similar to my experiences with other Amazon smart devices. However, I noticed a distinct difference in responsiveness when compared to the Echo Dot I own. Positioned at the same distance, the Echo Dot consistently responds faster to voice commands than the Echo Show 5. This difference in reaction time is quite noticeable and affects the overall user experience. That being said, the Echo Show 5 has its unique advantages. The inclusion of a screen is a significant plus. It seamlessly integrates with my home security system, allowing me to view live feeds from my cameras and doorbell directly on the device. This feature is particularly useful and adds a layer of convenience and security to my home. In conclusion, while the Echo Show 5 may not be as responsive as the Echo Dot, its screen functionality offers significant benefits, especially for those with home security systems. It's a great device for anyone who values visual feedback from their smart home devices.

This is a handy little device that has found its place below my monitor, mainly for displaying daily news, cycling through uploaded photos, and managing simple smart home connections. It’s compact and unobtrusive, making it a convenient addition to my desk setup. In terms of performance, the Echo Show 5 generally handles commands quickly, which is great for basic tasks. However, the device struggles when browsing through the settings. The process can be frustratingly slow, and at times, the system bugs out, abruptly returning me to the home screen. This inconsistency detracts from the otherwise solid user experience. Despite this, for its price and range of features, the Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen) remains a decent choice. Just be prepared for some hiccups when you dive into the settings.

It is a good product, easy to link with the rest of devices

My kids love it. Works great. Perfect for a quick pop in on my family while im at work or to check in on my fur daughter. It has a feature for the dog! Super cool. My family can call me using this and its super helpful.

Great picture and sound quality. Nice to have when you need to build your smart home network.

A great gift for a nice affordable price. Easy to install/time to install, with a great speaker.

This is a great way for my kids to communicate with me if I step out. The kids lock is very efficient it limits their searches. It’s great to connect them with grandma and other family members without having to expose them to a full phone.

The Show 5 is an excellent device. I use it every day for news, music, questions, timer and alarm it's great with Ring cameras and doorbell Ihave 3 of these through out the house.

This 3rd Gen has improved sound quality but the big difference is improved voice recognition and speed via a newer processor. I was always repeating requests on the 2nd Gen. Not so with the new one. A worthwhile upgrade for me.

Blows the Google Home away by so far. I don't have to repeat my instructions a million times like other products and the price and experience are great!

very good i love alexa I am happy with my Alexa, it helps me a lot.

This works well next to my bed - I can access things in several different rooms, so if I've forgotten a light somewhere, I don't have to get up. The speaker is not bad for its size and if I want music as I go to sleep, it's easy to get

Alexa is good love to use it for music mostly has not really had any issues after a few months

Easy to use, easy to setup. Would recommend this when there is a 50 percent off sale.

Bought this as a gift for a relative who is invested in the Ring/Alexa ecosystem. She really likes the way it sounds and the ability to integrate with the ring alarm system. Amazon has set the bar. Great value

As someone who sleeps through her alarms, Alexa always wakes me up. Mid putting on my uniform, “Alexa what’s the weather” (because Texas is unpredictable), I’m able to figure out how many layers to wear for the afternoon and night as I’m brushing my teeth/doing my hair. Not to mention when I get home, I can turn my bedroom lights/TV on and off on command. Best purchase ever.

Very satisfied with this new device. I recommend it 100%. Very practical for the home

Got this for my dad for Christmas and he loves it! Simple to setup and to use.

Very useful, easy to use and very helpful, good price and quality.

I love my eco5 it does everything to help my day be easier and better.
