    I love this thing, and I'm going to buy more soon! I bought this for my home office and she helps me keep up with tasks throughout the day as they come up. If I'm on the phone and a client ask me about something or needs me to take care of something, I merely ask "alexa remind me in 5 minutes to do ____". She shows me my calendar and keeps me entertained with music off my amazon account all day. Great device, plus I'm able to see and interact with anyone at my door with my Ring even at the office. I love it!

    Purchased this as a gift for my grandmother. She has issues at times working her phone and hearing and this made a big difference. She now uses it constantly to use Alexa to call family and friends and we’ve been able to use it some for video calls with the kids. There are a few tricky things to get working as far as the Alexa/Amazon account with kids accounts. For the price this is a fantastic help and as an added bonus the fact that she can watch video content on it is superb

    Love this device. Pleasantly surprised. 1st thing I adjusted was the bass-too distorted. I just wish I could watch a movie & resume later. It takes me bk to the beginning. I listen to music & the words scroll as I sing along. It automatically connected to all of my devices, great. Well worth it with all the capabilities. I can mk a call without using my cellphone- not sure how, but it works. What else..I need to figure out how to not have my recent pics on the screen when I’ve already selected certain pics. Overall, purchase well worth it.

    I bought a set so that I can talk to my parents. It works great. I find the picture to be clear and the ability to drop in on my parents is fantastic.

    Our family loves it! Wish I would have bought the swivel too. It been a lot of fun learning what all it can do and then explaining it all to my wife. Even our Granddaughter started talking to it. Will video chat as soon as we get one in my Son's house. Really enjoy making routines that I can play to guests. What a hoot. Glad I got this size for it's easier on these older eyes. Would definitely recommend it! I've also bought a couple of Echo Flex's, 2 Echo Dot (4th. Gen), 1 free light bulb, 2 cameras and 2 Wifi plugs for lamps. I'm hooked!

    I love it for the basic capabilities it has and am just getting used to having it around. Alarm clock-check, asking what time it is in the dark when I wake up in the middle of the night-check. Searching for song lists or recipes to watch in the kitchen-check. Being able to rock out and sing the lyrics because they are right in front of me-check. Turn off the alarm or set other items in different rooms check. This is the easiest piece of hardware that I have found to set up now I need to get it together to set up with my Bose sountouch 10's and life will be more than awesome.

    Bought this instead of replacing my defunct electronic picture frame. Now I stream pictures from amazon photos and they look great on this screen. It's in the kitchen so great for using for the radio or internet but I'm finding the more I play with this, the more useful it is.

    Alexa continuously gets more features. I can now see my ring devices though I wish the connection was faster. It's an intercom where I can call other rooms and I can even make phone calls. Sound quality is quite good and might be even better now that I adjusted the equalizier. Yes, it even has that. Picture quality is great. Though some people are annoyed at the messages, I find many very interesting. There are still limitations where you get the message, "Hmm, I don't know about that." Most times we laugh, but other times it can be annoying. Still, great device!

    Love the big screen, love that you can have it play videos and shows off of it. It’s like a mini tv. Such a great update from the echo spot.
