    This is the latest greatest with a camera too. Easy to setup and use with hi quality video and audio. This Echo show goes by my bedside and gives me at-a-glance time and weather, news headlines with a choice of personnel photos or stock art, architecture too!

    This might be my favorite item I bought in 2020. It fits nicely on my kitchen counter and looks good. It has so many functions, it makes my life easier and more enjoyable. I highly recommend and have already purchased for a few family members as Christmas gifts.

    I like that I can use it to stream my pictures. Hooked it up to my Arlo and kinda slow getting the Arlo screen when I need it. Viewing it on my iPad was much faster. Also I wish it would automatically show Arlo when motion is detected but it doesn’t. Bought it hoping it would do that ☹️. But I’ll keep it anyhow, Looks nice on my bookshelf and it can play music. Using the app is a little confusing, especially when I was trying to connect my Arlo. Not very user friendly.

    I purchased this for my brother who is in EOL. Though I can not be with him daily, Echo Show allow that felling. Everything I expected. I was remiss in not ordering the stand right off the bat. I have now ordered one and am awaiting it's arrival.

    Excellent product, I use this to communicate with family and play music . It has really good bass for such a small unit. I use it also to set timers when cooking things, read recipes and play question of the day from Amazon.

    Having lots of fun hooking this up to my blink and ring cameras. Upgraded from the dot as well and it was a nice upgrade. Fun having the lyrics for music and making face to face calls with loved ones. Takes a bit to set up, but we’ll worth the time investment.

    I was hesitant to buy as I have a lenovo smart screen with google but amazon supports more video apps. I actually use this more. I still use google for questions but for entertainment I use this. Screen is nice and the price on Black Friday was hard to resist.

    I got these as gifts for my relatives. Since they don't know how to use most tech. This is pretty easy as you just ask Alexa to call whomever you want and then they both can see each other which they are really happy about.

    Love the Echo Show. I held off for awhile since I have a lot of echos and echo dots, but bought this on sale. Great size and video quality. Nice having new updates and weather all the time. The sound quality isn't as good as the echo I have, but it does the job

    I just love the new Amazon echo 8 with smart display! It is a total upgrade from my alexa from last year. This does more and the screen in large enough to see. Well worth the purchase. It was also on sale for a great price!

    -Perfect size -Audio sound is awesome for the size -I have not even come close to using all the features yet -Biggest disappointment: You cannot customize the clock faces. Clock face way to small. You can make it a "tad" bigger by activating the "do not disturb" mode. But not much bigger. Maybe this is a software fix that Amazon will come out with at some point but I doubt it.

    I love my Echo Show, it does everything your TV and laptop do and lets you stream movies from You Tube, Netflix, Hulu and other streaming providers. It's been very good company while working from home and I am getting caught up on old TV shows. Love this.

    At the $55 sale price point, nothing comes close. I would recommend a stand. I bought a battery stand that allows me to move it around when I want.

    Love the Echo Show’s we have 3 of them an Echo 8 and 2 Echo 5’s around the house. We have them synced with our Ring products and created different groups so we can hear music in each room so it sounds harmonious all around.
