    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.

    I wasn’t sure what to expect with this purchase & was shocked at how loud this echo show was when playing music! She hears you very well and I haven’t tried Video calling Yet but I am excited to.

    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 love how easy this is to use, and being able to control my smart home products with it. My only complaint is that when asked who her favorite football team is, she says the Cowboys... #gopackgo

    Easy to use to find recipes, play music and listen to podcasts. I have not tried the calling feature but everything else is good. Sound seems better than previous echo versions.

    I absolutely love this product! While laying in bed, Alexa can show me my front door though the Ring video camera. She can play music, and even play sleep sounds that help with me falling asleep.

    Purchased for my brother for Christmas. I've used one of these before. It's nice to be able to see some of the things you ask for in the screen. Def should have a prime account if you buy this.

    I got this for my father, and he really enjoys using Alexa. It is hard for him to see his cell phone, so this big screen and talking to Alexa makes finding his favorite music to play super easy!

    What it can do is only limited by your lack of imagination, and adding new skills daily. . I use them for surround sound for music. I use her for news , recipes, find my Cel phone , phone calls , intercoms, Messages, and she can add reminders on my Cel phone, operation of security cameras, smart thermostat, control lights and much more. I am always learning new skills she has almost daily and it would be hard for me live without her now. The sound quality is not as good as with my echo but good enough. I particularly like to use it for recipes and my ring door bells, I just say show my the front door. Setup is very easy like all the Alexa products. I think it’s like getting a new car with all the bells and whistles You didn’t really need but afterwards you can’t live without:-) What can’t she do? PS great speaker sound also

    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.

    Perfect size for a secondary room, such as a bedroom. My only negative complaint is that because of it's size, you have to be closer to it for Alexa to wake up compared to the larger versions. Fine for a bedside table however.

    Bought two of these for gifts for two young ladies that are away from home a lot of the time. They liked the the device as it is very convenient to use and takes up little space.

    Upgrading to having a screen was awesome. I use it primarily for my kitchen and it’s very useful to be able to visually see all my timers. Love the perk of getting to see all my cameras as well!

    Paired this with Echo Dot that just recently set up. Both are easy to use and simple to set up. Haven't explored all the things it can do yet. next up is to set up my Ring camera. Screen is a little small, but ok. Nice to have a way to cover the camera, as well as turn off the mic and speaker, when needed.
