    I purchased this as a gift for my husband. He has been using it ever since. The video calling is seamless and the display is very clear.

    While there is nothing wrong with the show 8, most of its functionality can be done with the cheaper show 5. Unless you are planning on doing something that the show 8 does better than the show 5 (music, video calls) then get the show 5.

    husband loves this in the livingroom he loves the different pictures on it and he can look at it and see the weather and temperature. although alexa is not as capable as google home. have to repeat commands but i guess that is to be expected. like saying only one wake word to activate.

    The Echo Show 8 looks and sounds great. It works as a much needed night table clock. Also works well with Alexa and four Phillips Hue lights in the bedroom.
