Customer Ratings & Reviews

(Fairly) easy setup. Lots of optional settings. If you're not real techy, it has a couple of set up glitches but once you figure them out, really pretty easy. Great for use as a clock, especially on a night stand (best to turn off camera and "drop in" setting :). Recently also purchased Show 8 which we do not like (small clock). Show 5 does almost as much, takes less space and has a readable clock for a lot less money.

I bought an Echo8 for my home office. Then bought an Echo 5 for my wife who had to go to Florida to help with grand kids out of school. It has been the best thing for keeping in touch and chatting. It is a lot better than a phone. I can keep working hands free and we talk and visit. Video quality and sound are really great most of the time and even than phone or skyping. Also use this for all things Alexa. Love it!

We already had the full size Echo Show, and the Echo Show 5 came as a part of a bundle at Best Buy. The Echo Show 5 is great for us in another part of the house, although it could be great as your primary Show. We have had no problem setting up either of our Echo Shows, and they really tie in nicely with a Ring doorbell and several Ring Floodlight camera units, to show us what is going on without having to go to our phones.

It's the perfect echo device if you ask me. It isn't too overwhelming in size. It fits perfectly on a nightstand or an end table. I've heard some people complain, "Oh no, the screen's too small to watch a television show on." That's why you have a television. This isn't for that. To keep an eye on your cameras, see a recipe in the kitchen, or check the weather, this device is perfect. I love it.

I've been using an echo dot for about a year, mostly for music and controlling some smart plugs. I got this echo show with the purchase of a ring doorbell. It works well with the doorbell, but I also like it a lot for other things. It makes for a nice always on clock and weather display. I really like that it displays the lyrics as I listen to amazon music. I am sure it can do a lot more, but I haven't fully explored it yet.

The Echo Show is a great idea. It combines all the great Alexa features with Video capabilities. The system is a little underwhelming when it comes to computing power and operating system. It gets confused often and is slow to react but I find it great for the office to keep up on headlines, listen to music and even watching an occasional video. It's very reasonably priced and I would recommend.

Received free with purchase of eero. Personally i'm not much into the alexa but a family member is. They love it, especially having a camera so they can check in on their dog when away from home. They are highly into all the alexa products and love this addition. Would definately recommend.

Have lots of these around my house. Really good for popping in

The speaker is pretty good. It plays my Amazon music. The screen is a nice size. I love it....

Very convenient device. I used it with a Ring doorbell, so I can see when every someone is at my door. Plays music when I tell it to, and tells me facts when I have a simple question. Everyday I ask it for the weather while I'm getting dressed so I know if I need a jacket or just a t-shirt. Small enough to be on a side table and doesn't take up a lot of space. Satisfied purchase.

Got this unit for the bedroom so I can view my ring cameras at night. It is so nice to be able to view the surrounding areas of my house without getting out of bed. The added benefit is the revolving photos like a picture frame. Love seeing photos of years ago of the family. And because of the size, it's perfect next to the bed stand. Not too bright and big.

The screen is great for cooking & awesome alarm. I also like the fact you can block the camera.

Not our first one. Ease to setup and easy to use. Nice screen size. Perfect for the bedroom.

Bought this for my dad for Xmas, as he loves little tech gadgets. WE paired this with one of the blink cameras, and he absolutely loves it. They put this in their kitchen and he uses it a lot for recipes as they show on the screen for him. He has several of the outlet adapters too, so he loves telling Alexa to turn on and off certain things in his house.

I bought this because I had a couple Google Home Hubs but I have Ring cameras and could not view them on those, now I can with this, I can also watch Amazon Prime shows on it too. Believe it or not one of the best things about this is that it has the date on the screen, something which seems impossible for Google to figure out. Also even though it's is smaller than my Googles, it seems to be much louder.

Bought to replace my old-fashioned alarm clock. I will never go back to an old-fashioned alarm clock. Any Amazon Alexa allows me to set an alarm or cancel an alarm. Weather is available as I start my day, as well as my daily events. With the Music Unlimited it provides me with the music I like. Also, I can turn off or on; the lights in the house with just a voice-command.

We are still in the process of learning all the ways our Echo can be used, but using it just for the music alone makes it well worth the cost. I have it on my kitchen counter and search for music as well as the occasional recipe. The speaker quality is very good. We are going to order another for our upstairs bedroom. I know there are alot more ways to use it that we haven't even explored yet!

Ease of access Is exactly What we have experience with this wonderful device. Having older parents and adding the Ring devices along with the echo show five provides peace of mind and fun for all our family members. Parents not missing any appointments for not looking at their calendars on the wall because Alexa can remind them of everything and wake them up toI! Medication reminding is another thing we use it for.

Awsome products great gift ! Easy to use and free camera was a great addition
