Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this Echo Show 5 for my wife's art room, where she spends a lot of time painting. We already have an Alexa in our living room along with a Smart Plug, but I decided to purchase the Show 5 so that my wife could access Alexa (and particularly Amazon Music) during her marathon painting sessions. We're still learning how to best use the Echo Show 5. My wife loves being able to launch the streaming music apps she listens to with just a "Alexa, play....".

Very easy plug and play item to add to the rest of our smart home. We use this as an alarm clock, baby monitor, and ring security camera display. We’ve owned it for a short while and definitely not disappointed. The screen clarity display is high defined with the ability to call the grandparents with camera options.

I got for free as an add-on. It's amazing how much more useful Alexa is with a screen, even a small one.

I like Alexa as it is simple to use. However, the video calling is only for Alexa to Alexa and it limits its usage.

Love that I can communicate with my kids in any room. I can also see what my Little one is doing in room through camera. It’s a great device to have. I also linked to my security camera system. So I’m able to get alerts directly to my show.

I bought these for my kids and they were so excited to have Alexa in their rooms with them. That is until I would come in and secretly change the alarm times on them. Then it was not so much fun for them. But I laughed and laughed. Also, Alexa is great for weather and news stuff!

Upgraded from an Echo Dot in my home office because I wanted the date, time and weather showing on the screen. Only down side to this is you can’t stop the screen background from rotating every few minutes or so. You can speed it up and slow it down some what but not eliminate the rotation. This is a real annoyance and why I only have it four stars. Maybe with a new software update in the future Amazon will fix this.

Nice addition to our other Alexa devices. It links to our Ring doorbell so it can show us that video feed.

We have had this since black Friday but just plugged it in the other day. It came right up, connected immediately and seems very helpful. I haven't really played with it much as we have been super busy, but I have a lot of email, showing me when to do with it and I think it will be fun once I work on it.

Great way to get a lot of the full experience with Alexa. Easy to set up and fits just about everywhere.

Great sound quality and easy to use, but the mic does not seem to be as reliable as the dot or home.

I got the echo show for its size cuz its perfect for my side table. Upgraded from the dot. Love the screen too

This device is awesome. Lets you know when you amazon items are are delivered and pocks up new skills quickly

Its definitely better than a regular Alexa. Compact, yet the screen is very viewable, including at angles.

Definitely better than the larger version and the adjustable stand is a must add on to adjust the viewing angle

I love this Echo Show. I have routines setup that make my life easier. It is nice to connect to all other Alexa devices from my recliner via my voice to Alexa or the iPhone app if I need to be quiet. The news reels in the morning and trivia games at night are so nice!

Great Buy!! Works great with ring doorbell. Will buy another but it will be with a bigger screen.

This makes the perfect gift for non-tech savvy older adults who once you show them what it does to fall in love with it! My mother-in-law gets news updates, music, the weather, the air quality index and everything else now from this device, she can’t stop talking about it thank you for calling!

Echo show 5 is a nice little smart display. the screen is nice and bright and the sound is good.

We used this when our kids got COVID and were isolated in their room. This helped us to check in on them regularly. We ended up buying a few and Echo Dots as well so we have almost every room in the home covered. With 5 kids, these are great ways to call for dinner as well!
