    Perfect Sized Alexa Smart Display

    Our household has an Alexa in most every room. The new Amazon Echo Show 8" features a bright, clear display which is useful as an office hub that will display your favorite photos, weather, news, and so much more. When you ask Alexa for the weather, the display shows the forecast for the week. This is just one example of how useful the display is. This Echo Show 8" & the Echo Show 10" both will connect to your HULU & YOUTUBE accounts. (Echo Show 5" will not). Simply say: "Alexa, watch (name your favorite news channel) on HULU. About 6 seconds later, you are connected! Even though I have a 55" TV in my office, it is distracting. This 8" Show is located between my 2) computer monitors & is not distracting, at all. CONCLUSION; I highly recommend the Echo Show 8" Smart Display. I use the Echo Show 10" for the kitchen & the 8" for an office hub. I use it daily.

    This Alexa device is wonderful. Pretty big screen, good speakers. Better than the echo plus.

    Bought this for my mom to help her automate her house and she loves it. She has her cameras and doorbells all connected to it so she can see it all from her chair without getting up. When its time to go to bed she just says goodnight and it turns all her lights off and sets her alarm. Made her life so much easier!

    I love this thing! Very easy to use and despite the reviews I read about the sound quality, I totally disagree. The sound and picture are outstanding. I love that when I'm getting ready in the morning I can just tell it to play a TV show or the news etc. I'll be watching more youtube videos on all the additional features it supports.

    I love this product! I have the smaller one in my bedroom, which I bought to use as an alarm clock. But it has so many other useful features. The same goes for this echo…I use this one in the kitchen. The large display makes it super easy to see from across the counter. From recipes, to phone calls, grocery lists, reminders, etc. I would recommend this product.

    NEW 13 MP CAMERA: Upgraded from 1MP in 1st Gen. MUCH better picture for video calls. --CAMERA AUTO FRAME: Camera follows you and centers you in the frame during video calls. The Show 8 itself does not move like the new Show 10 does, but the camera can still follow you and zoom in, in about a 120 degree arc in front of the Show 8. --NEW PROCESSOR: MediaTek MT 8183 octo-core processor, upgraded from MT 8163 in 1st Gen. This results in a faster, more responsive touch screen. Slight difference, but noticeable. --ADAPTIVE COLOR: Adjusts the color and white balance of the screen to the lighting in the room. This results in clearer, brighter looking images, even though the screen hardware is the same. --MOTION SENSOR: Camera detects motion activity, and can now trigger Routines. ie turning lights on when sensor detects a person in the room. --REMOTE VIEWING: Use the Alexa app on your phone to remotely view the camera of the Show 8, so you can check on your home while you're away. There is a big notice displayed on the Show 8 screen that says it is being remotely viewed.

    A good tabletop Alexa

    We bought this to replace our aging Alexa "tube" and to have easy access to information in the kitchen. It's a bit bulky, but the sound and picture is quite good and it looks good on the countertop. The touch interface can sometimes be a little "touchy" and controls a bit confusing/annoying which is why I knocked it down a star, but having the latest news pop up, or search results appear on the screen after you ask Alexa for information, among other niceties, make this a worthwhile investment. We haven't really tried it for video yet so I can't comment on that. Music/sound quality is pretty good for such a small unit.
