    I am use to the sound on the echos, this sound isn't very good. I really don't need the video type because I don't use it that much. I returned it.

    Beautiful, but slow and glitchy. Unfortunately, we had not realized to does not offer continuous video feed for the camera we purchase to use as a baby monitor, which is our fault but still disappointing. For the standard Alexa/Echo functions it is very unreliable and we never know when it is going to do what we ask, give an error message or not respond at all. We have tow standard Echos and have had no problem with them.

    Echo shows are the bomb diggety

    We have Echo Shows in almost every room of our home, except where we have a 5, 10, or 15. Love Echo shows for providing a music speaker, keep shopping lists, handle reminders and alarms, enable video calling, provide trivia answers, function as a sleep sound generator, you name it - Alexa can do it. The 8 is the lowest level show I would buy anymore too, as its price is so close to the 5, and you get a lot better quality speaker and larger screen than 5. It goes on sale during all Prime Days, and Black Friday, so wait for those to buy if you can - half price then!

    Streaming TV to it is Flakey at best. Works for 10 minutes, then shuts down for no reason. Idea is good, but execution is lacking

    Disappointing you cannot easily use this at night as a clock /alarm, evidently only the Echo Show 5 can do that well.

    Asked the store employee if it would just stay on showing the camera, he said well I don't see why not. So just so you know, that translates into i don't know and not sure I care. FYI, it not only will not stay on the camera all the time, after you set it up it says it does not work with cameras. you can get it to work sometimes and others not so much.
