    So glad I purchased this! Good quality and very nice stereo sound! I like the size of it. It’s not too big or bulky! I have it sitting on my kitchen counter, I have it setup with my doorbell ring now I can see who’s at my door! Absolutely love it and I highly recommend it!

    this is easy to set up. it came with the Ring doorbell I purchased and i like that it can show me the front door or any other cameras I have in the house. it would be nice to be able to use with facetime but it is not a feature. You can add pictures and change the face. it can be used as an alarm clock, which I did not think of until I read about it. Otherwise it is the same as any other alexa device.

    Love this little gadget. Everything you love about your echos but with a screen. When your music is playing the lyrics are scrolling on the screen. I also love watching the morning news update as I get ready without the hassle of turning tv on and finding channels.

    Excellent value. Easy, intuitive set-up. Screen is large enough to be functional for a wide range of applications. The screen is not large enough to watch videos, for example, but we’ve found it perfectly adequate for our purposes.

    The Echo Show 5 is great. I love watching sports highlights in the morning before work or just putting on a podcast in the evening while I'm working in the kitchen. The sound is good and the screen is great. I would recommend this to anyone.

    Excellent personal assistant. Works great with Ring. You tell Alexa to show you the front door when it detects motion or rings and it works great. Love how it plays amazon music or Spotify without issue and a great timer in the kitchen.

    Great picture, sound, and price. The things I didn’t like...the screen is pretty small. Not a dealbreaker for the price but looks pretty tiny sitting on our bar. The biggest con is it doesn’t pick up your voice as easily. I can be a few feet away and ask it to play a song...and my Alexa dot(upstairs)will start playing. Even with the cons it’s still a pretty awesome and I don’t regret the purchase

    Allow me to lower your expectations somewhat as we begin. First, it's a $44 item that is very good at what it does. I spend much of my time in the basement over this computer. My wife, who has mobility issues, stays upstairs. I bought two of these so that we could communicate without my continually having to go up and down the stairs to converse with her. For those purposes, it works perfectly. Using the "drop-in" function, I can see her and she can see me. The video isn't of the highest quality (maybe 480P), but she can see me when we talk, and I can see her. That said, the "smart home" possibilities of this device are virtually endless. Lights, locks, Ring doorbell, security systems, etc., can all be handled by a device that costs less than $50. All you have to do is to "Ask Alexa". Not bad.

    Got this as a bundle with the ring and have not played much with it. The kids took over and love that it can play their music when they ask. The sound is good and it responds and understands well to the different tone of voices, from the youngest to the oldest.

    I own 2 Echo Show 5s and one 8 inch size. I have purchased multiple others for presents to others. All love this product. Replaced traditional alarm clocks in all bedrooms. Speaker for music is more than adequate. Love the Smart home features.

    Like that this allows you to see what Alexa is playing or showing you. Has a camera so you can video call and block the camera when you don't want to have it accessible. On'y downfall is Alexa can't always "hear" me and I have to say ALEXA several times.

    Super easy to set up and link with Amazon account and other smart devices. Promotional pricing makes this affordable enough to purchase for each room of the house. Definitely recommend for bedrooms and offices as a secondary show device.

    We have one in every room. Easy to link. Love using it to show song lyrics and when paired with our Ring doorbell, it shows our front door. Great speakers and very intuitive. Love to call our family on the show and see them. Very cool product.

    I was thinking about getting a weather station but opt to get this one instead. This is better value than a weather station as it can do a lot more. I only need it play music and tell weather but ended up using it for a lot more. Glad I made this purchase.

    The screen with the Echo Show 5 is a really nice feature. The large default clock (which auto dims at night) makes this a perfect replacement for the traditional bedroom alarm clock. If purchased under periodic 2 for 1 specials, it's a particularly good deal.
