Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have never had any of the other echos but I have a family member who has an echo dot and this one is better because of the display. You can do things with the creating alarms, video chats which don’t work well, or connecting with the Ring alarms to see a larger display of your door views. I can also check weather and music. I got this product for free with my Ring alarm and it has been so neat to use. I wish the display was larger.

Best Buy was having special with these as $10 add-ons to camera purchases. Definitely a good deal!

Yesterday, I baked with my show...calling up recipes for a specific cookie! Today, I danced with my show, requesting an older selection of tunes. Tomorrow...who knows! Maybe I'll show my cousin, who has one too, the sales I got at the mall! So much you can do with this product!

Small enough not to take up much room on Kitchen counter One key concern is that sound comes from bottom, so I needed to raise off the counter to let sound come out better Wife loves and uses all the time. Normally doesn’t like gadgets. However this one exceeded her needs

i love it, its a mini computer or phone, i can see my cameras, go on youtube, plays pandora, amazon prime, music, call other devices, set alarms,,, call,,, im telling you, what a phone do, this at a minimum

Out of the box, this thing is VERY annoying. Always asking you to TRY THIS, TRY THAT. You have to change some settings to get it be tolerable. Overall though, it works great. The screen is smaller than expected. I had the Google version also and was thinking this was similar in size, not really thinking about the 5" size...whoops on me. Works great though as a clock, etc. My kids use it on their desk for homework help also.

I love this echo 5, a must have when you have some many smart home devices to control. I got this free when I brought my eero mesh system. Best deal, can't go wrong with this if you want to have so many smart home devices to manage. And cool part is this was free.

I have a house full of Alexas and google devices. I have 2 of these units and they are really a step above the normal Alexas. However if you can afford the extra $, move up to a larger screen size as these screens are fairly hard to read if you aren't pretty close to it.

I am loving all our Alexa and Fire products. Some of the communication between our 5 devices are wonky and I wonder if I am smart enough for a smart home. With a lot of research, trial and error we are making progress to get everting synced as we want.

It took a little while to get used to it but after a while it was great to be able to sync this with Ring and see what’s going on at the front door. Trying to figure out how to get the ring app took a minute but eventually got it all worked out...

This came with Ring Spotlight purchase. I was surprised Alexa understand and response so quick when you ask questions. It is great to get information and set alarm, schedule, etc..Also, it can setup to work with Ring app... It is great to have another gadget.

Got it in a deal. Good one, not many impressive features yet. Works well with the ring doorbell.

The Show 5 is very responsive when using Alexa skills. Works great with Ring video doorbell.

I really like this product. The screen is a nice touch to an Amazon Echo device with Alexa capability.

The quality of the picture was great. It was a gift and they were happy with it.

Awesome little device and a super excellent deal. You can watch videos, make video calls, and look up just about anything. We have one in every room, including my kids school room so they can look up spelling of words or general information by just asking.

Not too big, butore screen than Spot. Doesn't seem to hear me as well as my original Echo (tower).

Works great and the screen is large enough for my 85 year old mom to see.

Bought two the same date, one for the bedroom and one for the garage. They usually get a work out. One of the best purchases we have ever made. The only problem was we tried to order on line but had a problem with web side, not real user friendly.

Works as well as its big brother/sister :) and its very cute bedside. I like the dimmer feature on the smaller model. not the same as the bigger model which makes it more appropriate as a bedside item. It works just as well as the larger ones too.
