Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's actually much better sounding than the Echo Spot and doesn't take up that much more room. The screen is more functional than the spot is well.

such a cool product that makes life so much easier. Very compact and the screen is more than large enough. So much convenience

It works very well and I’m able to see my dad’s face. We live a distance apart:)

I purchased the Echo Show 5's for Christmas gifts for my family members (4 generations)--5 Echos total--so we could all visit. It is especially handy for visiting with grandkids--handsfree. They are pretty much plug in and play for basic functions. It pretty much sets itself up, or walks you through set up. They have worked really well for us. They are pretty small, and that can be a good thing (if you don't have a lot of room), but if the price is right and you have a spot for it, I would consider going up to the Echo Show 8.

Used this to replace my bedside clock, radio, and Dot. The sound is pretty good for the size of the speakers. The clock face dims based on the light level in the room from the usual white to a very dim orange-like color that is actually dimmer that the clock radio it replaced. I have a routine to play soft music for 45 minutes as I fall asleep. The screen is about the size of a larger cell phone so it is not an excellent way to watch videos but it does a good job if you want to. I was able to get it on sale so that made it even a better bargain.

The Amazon Echo Show 5 was a aded bonus !!! This is great, it has the time, alarm, and it plays songs from Pandora. Super Cool !

I received an Echo Show 5 free with the purchase of my Echo Show 10. While the 10 sits in my living room, I put the 5 in the master bedroom. It is easy to set up and can be used for so many things. Not only can you play music, ask it questions, and set an alarm or timer, but you can make/receive video calls, play games and control your home's smart devices. I also like that it dims at night so there is only the soft glow of the clock. I liked it so much, I picked up another for my home office.

The speakers sound great. The screen is nice and easy to see. And aesthetically it’s great for in my bedroom. Doesn’t take up much space.

Bought several to share with my family Easy to install and fun to use Able to ask to play music and see people clearly

very easy to install the sound is amazing this is very convenient we are always in our family room which is downstairs.

Best Buy has a BOGO on theses and I’m so glad I replaced my old Echo Dot’s. The screen and sound quality are superb for their size.

We love video time to our parents and grandparents. Sound is pretty good for a small thing. It looks cute in all the rooms. Totally worth it

Great device for the price ( got it on sale). No problems. I like that the camera has mechanical cover.

Nice screen and great sound! Nice to have around the house! Hook up to your cameras around the house as well!! Highly recommend!

Easy to setup and connect to other devices. Great speaker for music. Easy to hear Alexa’s answers. Nice size screen with great clarity.

Echo Show performs very well. One's favorite music is as close as a voice command. Many other features, such as news headlines, reminders, etc.

I got rid of my aging nightstand clock and put this in its place. I use Alexa to tell me the weather, play music, set alarms, turn my lights / fans on and off. I use it every day, it had really made life easier for me and my spouse!

Good picture and sound for small screen. If you want to listen to music, buy the bigger speakers but this is loud enough for what it is.

This was my first Amazon Echo product and it was a nice introduction to the Echo ecosystem. Not too big yet not too small, it has great sound quality (even better when you configure its equalizer), really nice picture quality, and amazing capabilities of dropping in or video chatting with friends and family that also have an Echo device (or the Alexa app). Having this is one way to let go (or reduce screen time) of your mobile or other smart device while at home. Definitely recommend buying for each main room of a home.

Great picture and easy to use. Connects easily to your other devices for more uses. Small enough to fit just about anywhere out of sight.
