    Fantastic Upgrade with the Echo Show 8 (3rd Generation) Pros: Excellent 8-inch display with vibrant colors and sharp resolution. Improved speakers deliver clear sound, perfect for music and video calls. 13 MP camera with auto-framing, ideal for video calls and virtual meetings. Seamless smart home integration for controlling devices. Sleek and compact design that fits any space. Cons: No headphone jack. Some advanced features may depend on your region. My Experience: The Echo Show 8 (3rd Generation) has been a fantastic addition to my home. The screen quality is top-notch, and the audio is impressive for its size, making it great for streaming shows or listening to music. Alexa feels more responsive and handles smart home commands effortlessly, from adjusting lights to managing security cameras. The upgraded 13 MP camera is a standout feature. The auto-framing makes a huge difference during video calls, keeping me centered even if I move around. Combined with the high-quality microphone, it adds a personal and professional touch to virtual conversations. The charcoal color looks sleek and blends well with any room decor. It’s the perfect size—not too big, not too small—making it versatile for use in the kitchen, living room, or even a workspace. I’ve been using it daily and couldn’t be happier. Whether you want to enjoy entertainment, stay connected with loved ones, or make your home smarter, this device checks all the boxes. Highly recommended!

    I love this version of Alexa. I have bought this for a few of my aunts and they love it too. From the features like speaking to her in Spanish asking to put on a Spanish song and Alexa actually gets it right. To my son playing Amazon kids on it. Not to mention when my husband cooks he speaks to Alexa like if it was another person. We all love this technology because it helps us in our everyday life. Setting alarms, cooking stop time to reminders. And it shows all of our family photos on display!! What’s not to love!

    As someone who's always on the lookout for the latest in smart home technology, I was eager to try out the Echo Show 11. After several weeks of use, I can confidently say that this device is a game-changer. The 11-inch screen is just the right size—large enough to enjoy videos, follow recipes, or keep up with video calls, yet compact enough to fit seamlessly into any room. The screen quality is impressive, with crisp, vibrant colors and sharp details. One of the biggest improvements from previous Echo devices is the sound quality.The Echo Show 11 delivers rich, full audio that fills the room. Whether I'm listening to music, catching up on podcasts, or watching videos, the sound is powerful without being overwhelming. The built-in speakers provide excellent bass and clear treble, making it perfect for entertainment or just a simple background ambiance.The Echo Show 11 has truly become an indispensable part of my home. From its stunning display to its rich sound quality and seamless integration with Alexa, it has elevated the smart home experience to new heights. Whether you’re looking to enhance your entertainment setup, stay organized, or simply enjoy the convenience of smart technology, the Echo Show 11 delivers on every front. Highly recommended!

    Bought this for my 85 Yr old mother in law who has everything! If I knew how much she uses it daily I would have purchased her one years ago. I load up all the great grandkids photos sent by my daughters weekly and she loves veiwing them, she loves music and learned all she has to do is ask Alexa to play her favorite so songs, I bought her a light bulb compatible with Alexa and she now commands the light to turn on and off. No longer has to walk to her lamp every day twice a day. She loves her Alexa Show. What I love the best on this product, I have this unit on my Alexa app so I can monitor her turning the light on and off. If I see the lights is on she went to be, if I see the light turned off, she is awake. It’s the perfect gift!

    Sound quality is great for what it is and the screen is bright and clear. My only gripe is it has a few problems connecting to some smart home things like our shark robot vacuum. It also doeant have an actual spotify app and uses some weird secondary connection to it.

    The Amazon Echo Show 8 has quickly become a beloved addition to our household, and it's easy to see why! From its generous screen size to its crystal-clear audio, this device has exceeded all of our expectations. First and foremost, the larger screen size of the Echo Show 8 provides a truly immersive experience. Whether we're video chatting with family and friends, watching our favorite movies and TV shows, or simply browsing through recipes in the kitchen, the vibrant display makes everything look better than ever before. The audio quality is another standout feature of the Echo Show 8. The sound is incredibly crisp and clear, whether we're listening to music, catching up on the news, or asking Alexa for the weather forecast. It's like having a high-end speaker system built right into our home. But perhaps the best part about the Echo Show 8 is how much fun it is for the whole family to use. Our 6-year-old daughter is absolutely enamored with Alexa and asks her questions all day long. Not only is she learning new things, but she's also discovering the funniest jokes to share with us, keeping the whole family entertained for hours on end. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our Amazon Echo Show 8. Its larger screen size, crystal-clear audio, and endless entertainment possibilities make it a must-have for any household. Whether you're young or old, tech-savvy or not, the Echo Show 8 is sure to bring joy and excitement to your home. Highly recommended!

    I bought this unit for my brother who lives in NY. I live in Ireland, and I thought it would be good for video calls. I had the same unit myself. We are absolutely delighted with the Amazon Echo 8 unit. The picture and sound quality is so much better than we expected. Previously we video called using WhatsApp, and found it very frustrating. Using The Echo, calls can be made Hands Free, and the viewing area around is terrific. I purchased The Echo from Best Buy, online. The transaction was seamless, and the unit was delived Next day, to my brother in Long Island, and best of all, Free Shipping. I can honestly recommend this unit to anyone who likes making video call. Besides the video calls, the Echo displays all my uploaded photos from amazon Photos. It plays all my Spotify Playlists and allows me to listen to all my favorite Radio Stations around the world. The unit has many more features, too many to list here. Again I have no hesitation in recomming The Amazon Echo 8 3rd Generation. Brendan, Ireland.

    I’ve had the Echo Show 8 for about a month now, and honestly, it’s become one of those devices I didn’t know I needed until I had it. Pros: • The screen is a good size. Big enough to watch quick YouTube clips or see recipes while cooking, but not so big that it dominates the counter. • Sound is surprisingly decent. Not audiophile-level, but clear and loud enough for music, podcasts, or even quick calls. • I like the camera cover for privacy, and video calls with family work well (even if my parents take forever to answer). • Alexa integration is smooth. I mostly use it for timers, weather, calendar reminders, and controlling my smart lights. Works great for that. Cons: • The interface can be a little slow at times. Not horrible, but there’s a bit of lag when switching between things. • You can’t natively stream everything—Netflix and Prime Video are there, but if you’re hoping for YouTube or other apps to work easily, it’s a bit clunky. • Sometimes it pushes random suggestions or news updates I didn’t ask for. You can tweak this in the settings, but it takes a minute to figure out. Overall: This thing does a lot for the price. It’s not perfect, but if you’re already using Alexa or have other smart devices, the Echo Show 8 fits right in and adds some nice extra features. I use it way more than I expected—especially in the kitchen. Would I buy it again? Yep. Rating: 4/5

    I purchased this for my mom a while ago, and it has honestly been one of the best gifts I’ve given her. She uses it regularly and it has made a noticeable difference in her comfort and relaxation routine. The setup was simple, the design feels well-made, and it works exactly as expected without any issues. What I appreciate most is how consistent and easy it is for her to use without needing help. It feels like a thoughtful, practical product that actually delivers on what it promises. Overall, I’m really satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for something reliable and effective for everyday use.

Overall, it's a powerful, stylish, and versatile addition to my home.

    Super fast shipping of a great product. I use the Echo Show to run automations (lights on/off, door locked/unlocked, garage door open/close, etc), to listen to music and podcasts, check the weather, set alarms, and view my doorbell and wireless cameras. The touch screen is nice and the screen itself is great for watching streaming services or YouTube videos. Set up takes 3 minutes out of the box.

    Looks great! Perfect size. Easy set up. I’m excited for all the possible uses. I looking forward to watching exercise video, listen to music, and access recipes. I also use it for reminders such as take out trash, drs appointments, birthday reminders, and cook timers etc. I do wish the back was a smoother finish so it would be easier wiping down and no dust in the grooves.
