    I really am pleased with my Echo Show 5. It was easy to set up. Enjoy the fact that I do not have to turn on my PC or TV for news. I can find recipes easily, listen to my favorite tunes and much more.

    The echo provides information that would be hard to get. Music, schedule, phone, etc. Once you have it, you will wonder how you live without it. The only complaint is that Alexa doesn't understand everything you say. Sometime it will answer other time it may not. A little hard to program.

    I got this free with the purchase of my ring doorbell, so I can't be upset at a free $80 item especially as I saved 120 on the door bell itself. Comes in handy in our bonus room and the speaker compares to that of my dot. If you want a bigger screen and a much better speaker then get the show 8.

    I have 2 of these, one in bedroom and one in the kitchen. I also have them interconnected with my Blink cameras. These work well together. I just ask it to show me a camera location (however you have them named)and it pops up. I also have Amazon music and so far, when I play a song, the lyrics pop up and scroll on the screen.

    Very cool to use for a speaker and see our ring cams. Easy to install and setup. Configures easily with Ring products and to use your voice command to see cams is easy.

    We had both Google and Alexa products but we finally went all in on Alexa this year.bought these for alarm clocks for the kids. I wish the children features had more options and I wish Alexa understood us a little better but it works well especially with our smart light bulbs and plugs.

    I like the Echo Show 5" because it's the perfect size for a digital clock. It sounds decent, but I wouldn't try watching videos on it. I now have 3 of these in my house and love them.

    I bought this as a present for an older friend. She loves the ease with which she can speak with family members and see them. Overall, a good device, especially with people being more isolated during this pandemic. Of course, you need good internet service to make the most of the device.

    The echo show 5 is a fun little device. My voice is deep so I have to talk at a higher pitch to get it to recognize my voice. Full of helpful features. Sound quality is pretty good. Display is crisp.

    We got this Echo with our RING doorbell - great combination - not only did it take the place of our Echo Dot but it also gave us a great screen to see what our RING doorbell sees on our front porch.

    We got this during Black Friday and purchased it a really great price. The screen is ideal for someone who doesn’t have troubles with their eye sight as it’s kind of the size of a iPhone plus.

    Good device but very basic. The interface is slow. Not enough variety of images and clocks. And when using my photos they often do not use the full screen. Otherwise the screen Is nice and it’s a decent smart alarm clock. Lastly the audio design seems off as the sound blasts downward. It’s cool but not by any means amazing.

    Matched this echo with all of my home smart devices and I am completely satisfied. I can view my ring cameras on the echo screen anytime motion is detected...nothing like peace of mind.
