    We started out with this as a free add-on for purchasing our Ring Doorbell. It is now our alarm clock and our room automation must-have for shutting down lights in the house and setting the thermostat before bed. We use it for whole home audio when playing streaming music over the holidays, too!

    This was a gift. My sister likes to watch her car because of the area. She likes the Echo because of all it offer, also she has never had an Alexa. We added on the mini camera. She loves that she can watch her vehicle and enjoy the benefits of Alexa. I am pretty sure she is hooked now.

    I got this Echo free as a promotional offer when I bought my Ring cameras. I thought it would be a nice addition to the system given that you can link it to your cameras. Overall it performs well, but I don’t find myself using it as much as I thought. It doesn’t give me video feed from my cameras which i thought it would be possible. I mostly just play music sometimes or use it as a night stand clock. As a free item is good, but I wouldn’t pay the retail price.

    I honestly havent unboxed this unit yet, bc it was a gift for my dad, but I bought him something else and decided to just keep it for myself bc I liked my Echo Show 5 in white so much. I work from home and am go-go-go all the time, so its nice to have 1 in each room to help me stay on schedule.

    I replaced a radio alarm clock that would lose 15 minutes each year with this device. It keeps accurate time, shows the time on the screen, wakes me up when it is supposed to. Finally, I can control my home automation and get the weather and news simply by asking. What more could one want?

    Really like this item. Mainly purchased as an alarm clock. Really like that you do not have to reach to turn alarm off. Just tell "Alexa" to do it. Can set a snooze time the same way. Goes into night mode at night so the light will not bother you. Many other things you can do with this product.

    Got this for my sister for Xmas because I have one too. Now we can video chat without our phones. Love this echo show 5. It’s so useful with all the things Alexa can do. For example, it can answer questions, set alarms, and even watch shows and movies on it. I also got it on sale so even better!

    Nice upgrade from echo dot (which i had for ~ 2 yrs). Easily connects to smart devices including smart cams. Can just ask alexa to monitor smart cams. One of the cool things is to play song with lyrics displayed on screen. My 4yrs daughter has picked up so many songs with this cool feature.

    This is my second Alexa. I use it literally every day. I love the sandstone color and wish I knew about that before buying my first one (black) just because it matches my house better. I don’t have any issues with either. I use it to see Ring, listen to music, set timers, make calls, etc

    I enjoy using the Echo Show 5" for making video calls, asking for recipes, making phone calls, checking the weather, asking questions, listening to music, listening to news, listening to local radio stations. Especially fun for making video calls to relatives who also have an Alexa Device.

    I wanted a smart display for the bedroom to replace my simple alarm clock. It works perfectly as the display auto dims at night and provides news, alarms, weather etc when one wakes up. I really like the feature to physically clock the camera shutter for security. Just the right size for the bedroom.

    I got this for my mom on Mother’s Day. I own several Echo devices and this one doesn’t disappoint. You can call, watch videos, and of course, listen to music! It’s nice and loud. I would also suggest that you get the stand with your device. Altogether, I would definitely recommend this to everyone!!

    I received the Echo Show 5 free with my Blink outdoor cameras. When linked to the cameras the Echo Show 5 announces when motion is detected at the specific camera. I used it to phone my contacts, wake me up to music, make a grocery list, and recipes for cooking. This is a handy device for the home.

    Love this gadget. Took a while but got the home lights, garage lights, and Ring device to all sync with the Echo show. Now, it’s so simple to turn off lights, check and answer Ring calls, play songs and many other tasks just by talking to the device. Never thought it would happen but feels very futuristic to control so many things via voice control. Have a little patience setting everything up and you will be rewarded handsomely as things will become a lot easier.

    We have several Amazon Echo Dots in our house. After getting an Echo Show for our bedroom we realized that our Ring doorbell automatically showed live video to it when someone was at the door. We ended up getting a second Echo Show for the living room specifically to show the Ring Doorbell video. I only gave 4 stars because I have noticed that it does not catch the trigger "Alexa..." as well as the Echo Dots. I feel we have to repeat "Alexa" more with the Show.
