    I love the echo show this was my second one. Much better than the 1st generation and much faster. It still has its glitches here and there but overall great so far. I would like a higher megapixel camera though.

    I bought the Echo Show 5 for my husband & he loves it. It's the 2nd one we own and I wish we would have bought them sooner. They've been so helpful and makes many tasks so much easier.

    Returning. Why?: it’s too slow for my liking. It’s a new 3rd gen product so there should be little to no lag. There’s advertising pop ups that are annoying. I bought it for ring cam integration but it works on and off. It’s definitely not worth it unless you just want an Alexa speaker with ability to show pictures or weather and time.

      Posted .

      Good Morning liksan,

      Thank you for your detailed feedback about the Echo Show 5 (3rd Generation). We appreciate your honest assessment and are sorry to hear the device didn't meet your expectations.

      Your specific concerns about:

      Device lag
      Advertising pop-ups
      Inconsistent Ring camera integration are valuable points that we take seriously.

      While the Echo Show 5 works well for basic functions like displaying photos, weather, and time, we understand these features alone may not justify the purchase for users seeking more advanced functionality and seamless smart home integration.

      If you haven't already returned the device, you might try updating the software and checking your network connection. However, we respect your decision to return it if it's not meeting your needs.

      We'll share your feedback with our product team as we continue to improve our devices. AmazonDevices

    Echo 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.

      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.

      You've raised several valid concerns:

      Regarding the forced content and ads:

      We understand your frustration with the inability to maintain a simple, fixed display
      Your point about the device feeling less personal due to constant content cycling is well-taken
      We acknowledge this impacts the core functionality you were seeking

      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
      The importance of maintaining simple display functions
      Performance optimization requirements

      While we respect your decision to switch to an alternative product, we appreciate you helping future customers make informed decisions. AmazonDevices
