    This is my 1st echo show 5. I have mostly echo show 8 in the house. This one is ok, the sound quality could be better, but it is good for what it is. I got this for $10 when i purchased a ring camera so im not so hard up on this. Had i paid full price then i would be a bit more disappointed. Otherwise this is a good starter or good enough to have in a room that is not as occupied or used...

    I got this for Christmas and has been very convenient. Much like all Alexa is very responsive. However I like the onscreen tips like recipes and other things that pop up gives some great ideas and the screen helps me to see my cameras around the house pretty handy.

    This is a great replacement for my echo dot. I like the screen and able to see the weather report . Also includes a browser to watch you tube and other video content. I liked it so much I purchased a Echo Show 8 that has a bigger screen and better audio.

    This tables has to be one of the most inexpensive gifts that looks at the same time really fancy. It is perfectly ready outside the box. I would suggest trying to find a case if you lend it to the little ones Looks though but not completely.

    This is the second show 5 I purchased. Got this one for my wife. With our smart plugs, she can control the lights and alarm system, get the news and weather in the morning and travel updates. At night, she can listen to music, sleep sounds and it replaced her old alarm clock. She loves it!

    I'm really enjoying my Echo Show 5. I love having the screen. It's a visual help to whatever you asked for. Also makes it easy to customize settings or add things you couldn't do on the regular echo dot. Definitely a step in the right direction. My only grip is it doesn't always hear my voice. I really have to speak up. With my 3rd Gen Echo Dot was more responsive. Besides that, it's great.

    This is a perfect little device that packs a punch. It integrates well with your smart home, assuming you have other Alexa-enabled devices. Also, the speakers I find are pretty decent for music listening (although I also have a two-HomePod setup).

    Going to be honest, I was very skeptical with this but got it free with the Ring the door bell and I have to say that this is a really cool Device. Pretty awesome to see the news pop up on the screen and weather updates.

    Huge Number of Uses

    We have Echos in nearly every room of our home now. I love them, and honestly, I don't even come close to maximizing their potential. We use them mostly for requesting specific songs for the kids to listen to. Our next most frequent usage is as an intercom, for which it really helps that we have them all over. Overwhelmingly though, the tasks I use this for are audio-only, so I really didn't need the video version. The one thing I do enjoy the display for, though, is to view my Ring doorbell. I have this in my upstairs office, and when the door rings, it's great to know whether it's worth my time to go downstairs. If it is, I can also speak through it to let the visitor know I'll be a minute. Come to think of it, I could do the same thing with my phone, but with this device I can do it without my hands leaving the keyboard.

    Better than a Dot

    I have new addition to my amazon devices, the Echo Show 5. I like the small screen size, it helps me playing some videos from you tube for my toddler. If you have a Ring Door Bell you can watch video too when some one rings the bell. The screen is little tricky thought, sometimes it does not sense the touch. I don't like the fact that it does not allow more than one picture to display. Amazon should do some thing about this.

    Got it as a bundle with the ring doorbell. Nice little gadget. Have it setup so kids can call from me from it when they r home with their mom. It was a little difficult to get setup at first with the ring doorbell. But then works flawlessly

    Perfect for what I need. I love the alexa app. Does everything a normal echo dot does but with a screen. I can see the time and the speaker is loud. When I ask for the news it shows clips from the news source. I recommend it to anyone who needs a decent alarm clock with Echo abilities.

    This is really fun. We use it in our kitchen and are still finding out all its many wonders! Its fun dropping in or doing the games it has, along with learning you can watch movies or not having to look up a recipe on your phone while trying to cook.

    I love Alexa! I ended up buying more for my family members. Unfortunately they either can't be bothered with setting it up or just can't due to their computer skills. Those that did are quickly turning Pro Alexa...... Alexa,..... End Post

    This Echo Show 5 works perfectly for a small room such as a bathroom or bedroom alarm clock. We have our RING doorbell attached to it so we can see who is at the front door from our bed. I plan on getting a couple more of these though out the house to replace the dots we have.

    Me and the family love The Echo 5! It is great and so convenient while I am cooking whatever I need to know lol. My son plays all the music he wants to hear with his friends over zoom and they have a dance out. Just get it, you won’t regret it so helpful.

    I love this gadget it helps me out with my recipes and all the questions that I have. Sometimes it doesn’t answer me but I think it’s because it doesn’t know what I said. I like listening to my playlist and looking at Netflix on it for my daughter.

    I was very hesitant to make this purchase because I wasn't sure what it did. I am so glad I did buy it. Great way to keep in contact with friends/family, keep updated on the cameras in and around my house, and so many other customizations that can be made.
