Customer Ratings & Reviews

My recent Echo 5 purchase is truly a pleasant surprise and a major delight. It was easy to setup and I was really taken aback by the sound that came out of this small object. It was a clean and excellent sound with an impressive bass. I have since added a stand to raise my Echo. I love it.

We have a number of Alexa devices in my home and my wife was looking for something for the kitchen. She wanted to ask it to bring up and show recopies. It does do that but in hindsight something a bit bigger like the Show 8 might have been a better purchase for us. Nothing against this 5 but as we are getting up in years our eyesight is not what it used to be. The 8 has a larger screen and some more functionality that could be useful. But this product does perform well, sounds well and stays connected well. We are happy with the purchase.

Daily activities use to be so difficult until Mr Bezos showed up to disrupt the world for the better. Another great product by amazon. Works as a personal assistant as advertised, a browser, night light, alarm, music player, video player, what else, you name it, it does it. Love it! And so easy to setup. That ones goes to mr jobs though, the pioneer...

I personally think this is perfect for a nightstand or whatever you have near your bed. We put ours on the nightstand right beside our bed and we love it! It’s a fantastic alarm and if you forget to turn say some lights or whatever,you don’t have to get up just tell Alexa to turn them off. I highly recommend this!! Makes life so much easier and simpler.

I have several dots, but recently got this Show free with a purchase. I never knew what I was missing! I love the screen and all of the things I can link up to it. I am using it on my nightstand as an alarm clock and love that I can tell Alexa to show me my Ring security cameras if I need to see what’s going on outside at night.

My wife and I replaced our alarm clocks with these. They have shutters to cover the camera and we leave ours closed. They work great for whole home audio, as well as for quickly pulling up video feeds from our Ring cameras. We bought the 8" model for the kitchen and we're happy with all of them. They work well with all the other Alexa devices.

I was not sure if the screen would be big enough in comparison to the original show. It is actually perfect, large enough to view videos yet small enough to fit on my night table. I like having the time clock next to my bed. The sound is great as well. Since I have a small galley kitchen I will be purchasing one for my kitchen, will take less counter space.

I ordered two ring doorbells and this came free with it with the promotion! I was going to buy it but I wanted to see how well it works! It really works well you can bring it anywhere in the house it’s small and has a clock for your end table the picture is clear and you can also place music ask for recipes etc def worth it!

Alarm clock, music, tv, answers to most questions, timer, reminders, it helps your day. Favorite is the music and the sound is pretty good for such a small device. easy to set up and use. Plus I can control my TiVo. Also like that it can play sounds to help fall asleep. Just an overall good product. Will get another.

Easy and simple for a child to use being you can use voice commands

Got 2 of these for my adult children. They both set them up in their houses and we have been using them for video chatting. Sound quality is much better than our good speaker phones. Easy to set up and use. Do recommend getting the magnetic base that allows you to adjust the angle of the display/camera.

This came in a Black Friday bundle with Ring Pro Video Doorbell and Ring Pro Chime. I wasn't real sure the need or purpose of the Alexa Echo 5. My kids got the Echo Dot's a few years ago for Xmas, but I didn't know much about them. That said I did a little research and stepped outside my comfort zone. Set up is very simple. I downloaded the free Amazon Alexa App and followed the instruction. I pretty much used it to monitor the front door Ring Video at first, but now a few lights, and change channels on my TV thru Dish Hopper. It's capable of a lot of other things, but I'm just getting started. I work in the tech industry, but find it hard to get too motivated with all the smart home hype. Since I didn't have any expectations, I have enjoyed the product. I really use it to monitor the front door, but do enjoy asking Alexa to change channels, checking weather, scores, play music, and other basic commands. Video quality is fine for my needs at the moment as well as the speaker quality. Yes I would recommend this, but I don't have a lot of experience with these types of devices so someone who has more knowledge/experience with smart home technology might think otherwise.

We got the echo as a bundle with our ring doorbell. I honestly didn't think we would use it nearly as much as well do. I have it play music while cleaning or cooking. I have it set up to show me my front door through the ring when I ask. Instead of googling things now we just ask Alexa. Very easy to start using immediately. So far so good.

Show is the best! I love the ease of using this device. Just talk to it and it’s there to assist with every day tasks. I like watching news updates, seeing my photos, weather, and listening to music while I cook from my favorite saved recipes. You can set reminders and timers and get facts from Alexa. Great!

Added this with my regular Show and love it! Replaced my alarm clock by my bedside. When I'm sitting up in bed watching TV I can ask it questions or get reminders. Perfect for when you remember something while your in bed and can just tell Show to add it to a list. It can allow me to talk with my relatives just like the bigger Show if I need privacy.

This was a perfect upgrade from our Echo Dot. Not so big to where it takes up too much room but big enough to have an adequate sized screen and better sound. Set the clock to large format so that it can be read from across the room. Bought it on sale plus a bonus price for being a Best Buy member

Got this 5" Show in a Best Buy Package deal along with 10" show and Hue bulb for far less than you would pay for the 10" alone so it was a great deal. I have another 5" Show in the house so good to use these smaller ones as a bedside or perhaps desk device. Sound is big enough to fill a small room but it's limited so as stated, the smallest of the Shows has it's uses. The great thing is, the features and functions of all the Shows regardless of size are exactly the same.

Great sound, function but quite honestly, I don't use all its features. This one is in my bedroom so I can enjoy music with blasting it from my stereo and disrupting my neighbors. It's the perfect size. I mostly use music features, recipes, trivia, ask questions and show my favorite photos day and night showing the ones I love.

this was so easy to begin to use, we booked our bkink cameras to it and it is in our living room currently however, I am wanting to move it to the kitchen as I want to use it for cooking (watching videos) plus I watch prime videos while I am cooking or cleaning so itd be nice to have this near me vs my pvine

I love my Echo Show! It's perfect for the kitchen. It helps me keep track of my shopping list and I can listen to my favorite tunes while I am cooking. I love looking up recipes and following the directions right on the screen. It is small and doesn't take up too much space on the kitchen counter.
