    Being a senior this has come in handy for viewing ring doorbell & being able to be reached in other rooms by my ill partner on another echo 8 or my echo dots around home. Still learning other features & has met my needs.

    After receiving an Echo as a gift, we found out how useful it is.... No longer do we write grocery lists...Echo records it for us. We pull the list from the app on our cell phone. We are going to use this Echo in our RV.

    Bought this for my two kids as one is moved to dorm. They could stay connected as if they are home together. Easy to use and as always Best Buy did a great job stocking it and pricing it competitively!

    This device has it all. Can help you with cooking reciepes, local and world news, tv shows, movies, etc. The list goes on and on. But for me the biggest plus is that I can sync my security system to it perfectly.

    Great upgrade from the 1st gen Echo Show. The speakers on this device sound great and fill a room. I purchased on sale durning the holidays and at that price point you cannot beat the quality and value.

    Works well for the smaller model. We use it for the bedroom. The larger unit is in the kitchen where it gets used the most. It has been very helpful in adding to grocery lists and general questions.

    The camera is not very good, but having Alexa with a screen is a game changer. I use the photo slideshow. There are many features I have yet to try like routines, but I use it everyday. The audio quality is better than the dots and can still be connected with a Bluetooth speaker although this is done on the device instead of the app like the no screen Echos.

    We love this thing. It’s almost too smart for us. We don’t know all of its functions and we are still learning but it is amazing regardless. Ended up buying two more other speakers cause we love it so much
