    Easy to set up. Even my 90 yr old mom and run it! best way to stay intouch with aging parents in assisted living homes. No need for a phone line, it's all WiFi! (saves you $20/month). High quality so it's like being there (during COVID lock downs!). Hands free voice controlled for people with arthritis hands who can't hold/dial a phone anymore.

    We got this for my mother-in-law for a Christmas gift last year and she absolutely loves it. It was quick and easy to setup and connect her amazon account to. She loves to video/ voice chat with one daughter in Charlotte and the other in Atlanta. She has it next to her chair by the tv so she can chat comfortably. When not in use to scrolls through some nice family photos.

    My wife loves to listen to music when she’s in the kitchen, so I wanted to upgrade her music experience and provide her the ability to watch videos. The quality of the speakers is excellent and she can tune into her any of her favorite streaming shows or even watch cooking videos or find recipes. She uses it daily. She can play any of her subscription services from SiriusXM or Amazon music, and find exactly the music she wants to listen to.

    Over and over, in the "most helpful" reviews, I read about "ads" displaying. This does NOT ever display ads, it displays Alexa skills and things to try with your device. I read that people cannot get that to stop happening. It's right in the settings: go to: ---Home & Clock--- then: ---Home Content--- then, turn off ---Discovery---, that will end the Alexa skills displaying (may cycle once after setting but then they're gone for good). I kept reading that people who want to use it as a clock were upset that the clock kept getting minimized (to left corner) to show other things. That's because, yet again, they aren't setting it up correctly. So, in the settings: go to: ---Home & Clock--- then: ---Home Content--- then, turn off ---Rotate Continuously---, that will make the Home screen always display a full screen clock. You can also just turn off any content in that list. Note that each time you go into the settings, immediately after, it WILL show you a single skill or any content you left on. But that's it. It will just be a clock from then on, until you interact with it again and then it may display a single skill or that content. Once. Then back to being a full time clock.

    I was thoroughly impressed with the sound from the Echo Show 8. It covers the frequency ranges very well considering the size of the speakers. I was most impressive with the base range it produces. It won't shake the windows, but does the job for me. I use these primarily as a music streaming device. Ended up with three so far. Will purchase more in the future as sales occur. It's a breeze to set up and control with the Alexa app.
