    My son loves this!! I got one for each of us. He watches movies on it, when we do not want to watch the same movie. The features are great and Alexa teaches you how to use it along the way. The features it has are so many that we haven’t had a chance to even test them all out

    PURCHASED FOR MY FAMILY SO THEY CAN SEE EACH OTHER,BEING IN ANOTHER STATE. I HOOKED IT UP TO THE RING DOORBELL AS WELL TO SEE WHO AND WHAT PACKAGES ARE ARRIVING. I ASK ALEXA WHAT'S THE TEMPERATURE FOR THE DAY AND SHE TELLS ME. I LOVE THAT I CAN ASK HER TO TELL ME A JOKE AND SHE HUMORS ME.

    Upgraded to this from an older gen echo 5. Debated on this vs the newer generation which was double in price. Couldn't be happier with it. It is so much easier to see my ring camera activity on the bigger screen also vs the 5.

    Perfect for yet another place to put this Show 8" Display. Gave this to my daughter-in-law. Turns out she had one already, BUT she was delighted because now she can take this one to her room (she has 5 children) and watch whatever she wants on line without interruptions.

    We enjoy this product. We have a beach condo that we rent through VRBO. We can tell the Show to play The Beach Boys. Guests arrive and get into the beach mood right away. We also display photos and our website to promote return visits.

    The sound quality and picture are superb. Had the Echo Show previously, and the upgrade is well worth the price. Thought the screen orientation would be bothersome, but it really works well if you walk around the room and want to have the screen easy to see.

    Love it. We have the 5-inch Echo Show and it was really nice but we have since found that having the eighth inch screen is even better. When you've connected it with the ring doorbell it's much nicer to see a larger picture when you answer the doorbell on the Echo Show 8 in.

    I bought 3 for my kids after I bought 1 for myself. It is great! The picture quality is amazing and the kids and grandchildren loved it. You can listen to music, save to favorites list Alexa can even show your recipes step by step. You can save all your recipes as well.

    I wasn't sure what to really expect when I purchased this but I love it. The sound is great and quality is as well. I mostly use this for music and watching videos. I wish that it did have the option to be wireless. Also, would be amazing if you could download other apps.

    This device does everything I’m supposed to do except I don’t feel that it listens as well as an Echo Dot does I can get the echo dot in my other room to respond quicker than this one right in front of me But it’s full function and great otherwise

    The show is easy to. use and so much fun. I bought one for me and another for my daughter and now I can easily keep in touch with her and the grandkids. I can control my lights and ring security through Alexa and always have music and information an Alexa away. I don't know how I lived without it.

    As an owner of one of the first Echo Dots, this is my first Echo Show and now I can see the big benefit of these devices. Besides the audio that only the Dot can do, you can now get video. This adds many more functionalities. Definitely a good purchase!

    I love this Amazon Show. I have the echo dot and it has limited use, but the show has many more uses. Alarm, music, weather, phone calls on and on. If you have someone else with one you can do many more things. Paired with Amazon prime it will perform many tasks. ..........

    During the time of isolation, this is a nice tool to stay in touch with friends and loved ones. It will also be a nice device when things are not so isolated. Since it is an Echo device, all the regular advantages of an Echo are present along with some nice video upgrades. Worth the price.

    Had an echo show 5 and bought this size as it was on sale. Love it - use it like any regular echo but I like that I can monitor my cameras and my doorbell. To me it is like when I bought my first flat screen. It was 32 inches but you can and always end up going bigger.

    Great smart display. Can't beat the value (especially when on sale). The sound is awesome, better than the 3rd Gen dot and way better than the 4th gen dot. The smart home interface on these is still a work in progress but it works and I'm sure will improve with time.

    This was an upgrade from a first generation Echo Show. Way better sound, screen resolution, and design. I just wish Amazon would offer the option of all the clock faces like on the Show 5.

    We were able to give away our CD player and hundreds of CD's because the Echo Show has EVERYTHING in its memory bank. The sound quality is excellent. I love the fact that I can see the lyrics on the screen and sing along to songs I could never really make out before. Five star plus.
