Customer Ratings & Reviews

Nice video quality. Looks nice in the living room. Good size to see well. Don’t like how the screen constantly scrolls through tips and marketing screens even though I loaded a family picture that I would like to look at. I don’t find skills an easy concept to understand, and I basically bought it to view Blink camera footage/alerts, but I end up doing that on my phone anyway, so I don’t find it very useful.

I purchased this device so our family can communicate with our 85 year-old grandmother during quarantine. Very easy to use, and we can now all spend some virtual time with her without putting her at any further health risk. The only issue we had was finding a setting buried deep in the menu to allow her to receive calls from everyone and not just those saved in her contacts.

awesome video quality and easy to use. so useful for daily use

Love the echo but it has at times been unable to understand anything asked of it. It will also hear the TV and randomly start doing things. all in all i like it tho. Great sound for music.

I purchased these for my sons and nieces. Now we can video call each other. Also enjoy playing music, getting weather and other information.

The show is so much fun. Nice size screen and sounds great.

Good screen size. Good quality . Good sound for a normal size room.

I recently purchased "two more" Echo Show 8's. I enjoy the ability to play music throughout my home on all of my Echo Shows at the same time, including two other version. I purchased one Echo Show 8 specifically for my kitchen in order to view recipes. The Echo Shows can also be set to limit certain options from showing on the screens if one does not like a certain feature, e.g. hints.

The folks at Amazon have really done themselves proud with this generation of their Echo line of AI devices! The sound from this unit is quite impressive, and the video capabilities are amazing. Purchased this as a gift for family members to make it simple to "visit" remotely during these challenging COVID times. Might very well purchase another for myself.

Have only had it connected for a couple weeks. So far, I like it. Have not used it much, so the constant "tips" do not bother me. Like the idea that I can watch movies on it. Eventually will try the drop in and other things it can do. I recommend it for those that want a small tv like device near them while working on something else. Comes in handy.

Cant ask for anything better and best buy has the gratest service

Love my new Echo! The sound is great and I love the bigger screen!

Firstly, if you're worried about Amazon listening in on your conversations, then this is likely not for you. If you got nothing to hide then this is a great device. Great for "facetiming", you can control nearly all your smart home devices by either voice or touch controls. The sound from it for music is decent, not a Sonos device, but it also doesn't have the same price tag.

I love the full sound coming from the speakers and size of screen.

I purchased the Alexa Echo Show 8 when my son ended up in the hospital from brain injury and due to the corona virus pandemic my family and I were not able to visit. The Alexa was the perfect item to keep me close and in touch with him and staff. Easy to setup and great ideal for comfort. I have told others that had family members in the hospital as well. Great investment!!!!

Echo show 8 is perfect. Great sound and bass and nice size screen.

This is a wonderful item for a blind or visually impaired person. It will read what is presented to the camera. Gives directions for lining objects up. The sound is great. I gave it to a dear friend that fell in love with it. Ordered another. Be sure to get the stand.

Love it. Got at a black Friday sale for a great price so I had to get it.

Very nice for video calling and asking questions snd playing music

Easy to set up. Speaker has good quality and the screen is clear.
