    The Echo Show 8 is a versatile device with a nice sized display and good sound. The dim night mode is a little bright for use as an alarm clock, but still ok. I link to SiriusXM to wake to music and display photos from Amazon.

    The best purchase I did all year. I purchased two. The clock is a decent size and I am able to play music and get updates on it.

    The Echo Show 8 is another Alexa supported device that streams the news, displays the weather forecast, takes pictures, plays music, is an alarm clock and so much more. I would prefer if the time display was larger similar to the Echo Show 5 but it is still a great smart display.

    Significant upgrade from Echo Show 5

    I've decided to buy this instead of the new Echo Show 10 for several reasons: -- On sale for $74.99 -- Echo Show 5 and 8 still have a 3.5mm jack while the new Echo Show didn't have this at all which was a deal breaker for me -- The tracking motion on the new Echo Show 10 is relative new and has its own problems -- Bigger screen than the Echo Show 5's screen -- The new Echo Show 10 has the same screen size as Echo Show 8 -- Echo Show 8's features are more than enough to suit my needs

    Works great, love how I can use it with my ring doorbell, it also allows you to make phone calls without using your phone near by.

    I loved playing music on it as it shows the lyrics to sing along. The speakers were loud and clear while playing music on it. I purchased it for my mom so I didn’t have it longer than 2 days as I had to set it up for her. I’m not sure how I feel about the video Chat quality and how the video chat works. It was a challenge getting Skype on it. Not sure why this was as we entered information correctly. I will edit review later to allow my mom time to get adjusted to using it. Im debating on getting one, but am hesitant as it’s a little bulkier than I pictured and you can’t play Netflix or YouTube on it. Overall it’s a neat device and would recommend one if you have another family member who has one and have other smart devices to connect to it.
