    I finally settled down with the Show 5. I tried all of the other competitor equivalent sizes/product and I am choosing Amazon. Reasons: 1. Googl sends a lot of traffic to their own servers. I specifically opted out of updates and statistic sharing but it was sending a lot of data. Im a professional computer security guy by trade and I did not like it at all. 2. The biggest complaint I have read about the Shows are that they send different AMZ statements like spam. Well, everyone forget to tell you that it can be turned off. Last note is Show 5 has a clock. So, its a better bedroom, office, living room device versus the Show 8. The 8 is just bigger but the clock doesnt stay on.

    We use it all the time from playing music to getting our grocery list set up. Have it connected to our ring cameras. Super easy to use. The speaker is surprisingly loud for its size.

    It is better than expected. Just like the original echos but can play amazon prime on the screen, show lyrics for music, if have ring doorbell show who is on the other side. Overall a great product would recommend.

    Just love it, does not take up much space. Camera can be turned off has a touch screen. Works almost the same as the larger version and I have that, but felt uncomfortable with it in the bedom, this size is perfect

    Amazon Echo Show 5 - Smart Display, excellent product for the money. Easy to use, easy to set up, easy to listen to. I love that you can shut the microphone off and that you can turn the camera off.

    I use this as my alarm clock and to play music. You can also pair it to a FireTV and tell Alexa to turn on the TV, change the volume, etc. I recommend to get it when it’s on sale because it’s worth it.

    Good and functional in some ways. Sounds good, even better than Google home hub 7". Downside is Alexa is a bit def. All n all good device. Will not pay MSRP tho. I bought this because it was on sale half off. I don't need it, just got to have one to play around with :)

    This Echo Show 5 is simply alright. The screen is smaller than your average smartphone, granted it’s kind of in the name that this is a 5-inch smart speaker. Sound quality wasn’t something I found to be a strong point with this speaker, in fact I experienced issues with it ‘popping’, but it could’ve been something with my music provider. There honestly wasn’t anything that struck me with this speaker. My largest issue is the constant cycling of screens, which included ads. I did my best to disable them in the Alexa app but that didn’t really help. I much rather prefer my Google Home speaker due to it not having this issue.

    Not to big, It does all the stuff a dot does but has a screen. The screen scrolls pictures tells you fun facts, news reels, events of the day, even will display your schedule and serves as a nice clock. I love mine.

    Perfect size for my bedroom. I love that you can finally make the time size bigger. It has a great speaker for bring so small. Another great feature is that it recognize when it's dark so the screen goes black and red.

    Great picture. Clear, bright. Have by the bed and connect to Ring doorbell. Can see any activity by our front porch and yard on the Amazon Show while napping or in bed for the night. Love the peace of mind.

    Best purchase- can listen to music, can sing with the music (since you can see the lyrics), inform you of the weather, wake you up in the morning with a cool alarm. Buy it!!! Highly recommended.

    great addition to my home office, I use it mostly for listening to music, it has decent sound, just not as good as the 8" model, its nice to have it paired with my ring doorbell to be able to see if/when/who is at the door. I bought a second one to put next to my bed for the same purpose.

    This is a great product. I love having the screen to view everything. When you listen to music it plays the words. It shows the time on the display it helps me with everything. Definitely worth the money.

    I needed a device that could connect with the majority of smart devices I had at home. I am not loyal to any one brand so I needed device that could work seamlessly. My wife isn't big on technology so I wanted something she could feel comfortable with. I began watching (You-tube) videos and kept coming back to this device. I also wanted a price point that was low enough if I didn't like it later on it wouldn't be a big loss. We bought the device and its been great. We have the thermostat (Nest), security (Arlo),IROBOT, and smart lights (Multiple Brands) among other things and have had no issues. We use amazon a lot so our "Prime" account is loaded in. I have an ECHO DOT and we use it for maximum coverage around the house.

    I am taken aback by how useful and amazing this device is. From controlling smart devices, playing sleep sounds, stories, and music to bring a proper alarm clock. This does it all.
