    Absolutely love this Show. Can see song lyrics, have Alex call a phone #, look up info, show temperature forecast (I run, wait for it to be cooler). I have several regular Echos but the Show is the best!

    I've had one of these for a couple of years now. I use it to turn lights on and off and as an alarm clock on my nightstand, among other things. I picked up 3 more, 2 as gifts and one for another room in my house. I like them a lot

    It's ok.. It's just another Alexa for me

    I'm not really sure I am utilizing this properly. In a house full of government spy tools... I means alexas... I thought this would be nice to have. It was actually included with some cameras I purchased so I thought why not? Essentially it sits there in the living room and just shows me the time. I have a regular Alexa somewhat nearby and that seems to pick up a bulk of the duty. I thought that using this to see who was at the front door would be nice but it tends to have communication issues with ring and half the time the delay is so long I have to get up to see anyway. I'm sure if I didn't already have Alexa, it might be better but I don't really use this to look up stuff. It's cumbersome and convoluted for that purpose. With smart phones and small form laptops, I can do all of what that does much faster and unless my hands are wrist deep in dough, what good is asking Alexa to show me a recipe gonna do? Again, this could be user error, I just didn't find it something that I couldn't live without.

    I absolutely love this device. I have all of our Amazon smart devices hooked up and they work seamlessly. You can do so much with this device. The sound quality is great. The video quality is good. I’m so glad I purchased this.

    Love having this little device in my kitchen. I can listen to music, ask about traffic, weather, etc. It responds faster than when I ask my husband a question. I love that I also can see who is at my front door and it notifies me when someone is at my door.

    While we have not used it much, this is a nice addition to the Ring. We can easily see what’s going on without the use of our phones and we like the ability to ask the Echo just about anything. We are looking forward to learning more about its features.

    I have Alexa products all around the house but I love these because you get a small electronic photo frame when you’re not using it, otherwise it does everything else you’d normally do with any Alexa product with a screen.

    Initially purchased this to be a glorified alarm clock and it has far surpassed that objective. The quality of the resolution is excellent and the sound is surprisingly good! Bought a second one to video chat throughout rooms. Fun little electronic!

    Got this for my mom that is up north. She uses it to speak with me and her grandkids. Most of the time it’s the grandkids. Easy to use for her and simple for me to setup. Also great when she needs to show me something on the camera rather than mailing it to me.

    Less bulky than last gen. This size is ideal for Drop In function and doesn’t overshadow decor. Also I like Alex over Siri as it explains your questions while Siri just points you to website. But search function is still not as comprehensive as Google.

    Our first time using this type of device! It was easy to set up and enjoying learning new requests Alexa can respond too. Some friends have told us concerns with it though we made sure to set up with unique password to hopefully avoid security issues.

    Had a little difficulty pairing it with our Ring camera. A little confusing but finally figured it out. Instructions weren’t quite clear but info on the app helped. Since then, it’s been working pretty well. Also happy with being able to play music or getting info from Alexa. The speaker is as good as the speakers on our tv sound system. Impressive. Wish I had bought one a year or so ago.

    I use this as my alarm clock on my nightstand essentially. I have the larger Echo Show 8 as well. This one is significantly smaller, but is just the right size for a nightstand.

    This was given to me free for purchasing a security bundle. It’s the best gift I could’ve gotten. I use it as an alarm clock, my young child watches his shows on it and it is so cute, small but something I use daily.

    Nice Smaller Version of the Echo Show!

    I like the size of this smaller version of the Echo Show. I use it as my alarm clock and like that I can also get the weather, news, etc. The only thing I don't like is when the alarm starts to go off the actual time is very small on the screen and when you wear glasses you can't read the time. I love everything else about the Echo Show!

    Love this. Use it for an alarm clock. Love that I can get the weather ever morning. Also love the fact that I can talk to my daughter in when she's in her room on her echo. Still a lot more it can do. I just haven't done it yet.
