    We bought 4 of these to keep the kids connected to the grandparents scattered throughout the states. Super easy and they work great. Simple enough for grandparents and kids and quality is good.

    My first smart product from Amazon, happy overall, esay to use, easy to navigate. I have security cameras at home and it is cool that you can ask alexa to show any camera on your Echo, also i can watch YouTube or anything from the apps that Alexa has , i would recommend this product if you want a samst clock with all the futures.

    This is my first stand alone Alexa. It was easy to set up. Just plug it in and it asked questions to help you get it going. What I didn't care for is I didn't understand what some of the questions were asking but you just go to settings and you can change your answers. Great size for viewing

    Good size screen. I chose this screen because i purchased for my parents. The 8 inch display isvery helpful especially when you have security cameras. It helps distinguish objecta that are far away. The speaker is clear and loud. The microphone detects voices(Alexa) very well.

    Just started using amazon products in our new house and this echo show is great, if you have ring doorbell cameras etc itll notify you and show you on the screen, it like a mini tv in your living room or kitchen. I enjoy having it show pictures our cameras and recipes.

    Easy to set up and use. Great video and sound quality for background music (laud enough for large living area.) Alexa has her faults, but is mostly spot on and learns your favorites. So worth the price if you use the video for learning or want to see the words of your favorite song.

    Good Product with nice functions

    This is a decent product but I did not liked the viewing angle. When it is resting on the desk its display is slanted backwards and when you light up the room it will display a glare making it uncomfortable to view videos. This is what I noticed when watching youtube videos (others may have different opinion) But the sound and other functions are really good. I hope it would also come with a bettery backup as it only works when it’s plugged in. Unfortunately I returned it for these reasons.

    Speakers on this thing are surprisingly good. They blow the Google nest hub (smaller one) out of the water for the price you pay. Alexa has also been more reliable for my smart home devices as well.

    The echo show 8 is so good! I use it to listen to music and play games while i’m cooking, washing dishes, or cleaning. I didn’t think i’d use it as much as I do, but it’s great! Well worth the money

    Convinient to use with our outdoor/doorbell secutity camera to get voice alerts when the camera catches motions as well as listening to radio over. Put it on Echo stand bought seperately and it looks pretty and neat. Connecting with home security app was fairly easy, too.

    This Echo Show is amazing! The picture is so vibrant, and the screen is so responsive. I enjoy using is as an additional speaker throughout my home paired with other Echo devices to achieve this amazing surround/whole-home music experience! It is also so nice to set the screen to play my personal photos as little picture frames of memories of my little family through the years. Not to mention, it is a CRUICIAL part of my Ring security system. When the doorbell rings, it will show you who is there.

    The sole purpose of getting this display is to have a display for ring door bell. The sound quality and touch response is great Plus automation with Alexa is easy as a lot of third party apps integrate easily with Alexa.

    The Amazon Alexa speaker exceeded my expectations with its impressive sound quality and seamless integration with smart home devices. Setting it up was a breeze, and the voice recognition is remarkably accurate. The sleek design adds a modern touch to any room, making it both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Whether I'm asking for weather updates, playing music, or controlling lights, Alexa responds promptly and intuitively. This speaker is a must-have for those looking to enhance their home automation experience.

    Love it so far! If you’re just starting out with the smart home or looking to add your first smart display to an existing setup, the new Show 8 is a good place to start. Setting up the device was a breeze, thanks to the user-friendly interface and clear instructions provided. The device's compatibility with various smart home devices made it seamless to control my lights. The built-in Alexa voice assistant is incredibly responsive and provides accurate answers to my questions. Whether it's checking the weather, setting timers, or playing music.

    I had the Gen1 version of this product and wow! Amazon has done a fantastic job at updating these devices with so many more features since then. I love the crisp video and the size of the screen. I use this to view my Arlo security cameras all the time. Love it!
