    Its build quality is awesome. I have purchased it @ an Unbelievable offer price. Love the product for its elegant look. I really love it. Its a desktop device for using on bed side table or on the reading table. It would be more vibrant if there is battery backup.

    Great at this price. Bought it last year in Black Friday sale and it was well worth the price. Always wait for the sale to come which is quite often and never pay full price.

    I purchased this Echo Show and a matching one for my father who lives in a different state in a memory care unit in an assisted living facility. This lets me “drop in” to check on him but the picture is very clear and the sound is great for our visits. I look forward to exploring all of the other uses of the device!

    The Echo Show 8 second gen is an amazing smart display with better sound quality than the first gen. The camera is also very good for making video calls effortlessly.

    I cannot believe the excellent sound and quality of my two machines and how they can send me singing all day and night!!! If you don't have at least one, you are missing a very fine machine that will get you into a happier frame of mind as you go through day (and night).

    Much needed upgrade. We use this as our main Alexa hub in the family room(where most of family spends their time). It’s also serves as our doorbell cam! Echo’a are my favorite Amazon products and I will continue to replace with updated products as needed.

    2nd gen vs show

    I purchased 4 echo shows for family members and one show 2nd gen for myself. The sole difference is the camera, which is pretty substantial. The 2nd gen has a much crisper picture and auto pans the room to capture the people in the room. Is this added feature worth the almost 2x in price? That’s up to you.

    Not sure what updates it has other that the camera and removal of headphones jack. However, this is a decent size device with many features.

    Absolutely love using it! I set it up to work with Ring cameras and when there is a motion or someone at the door I can just ask Alexa to show me the camera. I use one on the patio to listen to music and to turn on the light. I have 4 of them in the house. Can connect to other brand cameras, light switches, can be used as intercom between each device and many more options available.

    Overall it’s a really handy device. Functions I use most are the timer, alarm setter and playing music 99% of the time. It has great sound, which is something I wasn’t expecting so that was a plus. My kids love playing their videos too on it from time to time.

    I use it for my everyday work alarm. I ask questions and Alexa responds quickly. I set up reminders as well as timers. I like to play music and the speaker is loud on this bad boy.
