Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the Show Mode Charging Dock for Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet, frequently praising its convenient charging capabilities and ease of use, as well as the added functionality of Show Mode. Many appreciate its ability to serve as a sturdy stand for viewing the tablet. However, customers are negative about the relatively high price and the less-than-stellar sound quality compared to dedicated Echo Show devices.

    Alexa Powered Home Security Console

    I was thinking about getting the Alexa Show for my home security console. I noticed this item and since I already had a Fire 8 HD this was a cheaper way to go with about the same function without the speakers. It works great and with Bluetooth I can have my speakers also. Kind of a no-brainer.

    Had an old fire tablet that was collecting dust, I have been wanting to get a new alarm. I saw this on sale, it was very easy to set up and works well. I am glad I found a new use for it. I bought a 10 inch I use all the time for reading kindle books and for recipes. It's a good buy well worth getting.

    This is such a smart concept I’m not sure why other companies are doing this, but you get the dual functionality of having a android tablet and an echo show in one. What’s not to love. We actually bought these for gifts and then bought one for ourselves because our friends love the gift so much.

    Don't have to wake up my wife every single morning anymore to ask her what to wear and do I need an umbrella - Alexa handles that for me now and the wife can sleep!!!~ This is a game changer. And at night we can play Jeopardy together and be a team!!!

    Got it for grandma during the peak of the of the pandamic with the tablet so we could stay in touch and plus i know she's not going to charge it. Well user error is a factor when your 80+ but it does work when used correctly.

    Along with the Dot Echo, the Charging Dock for the Fire Tablet allows me to use the Fire Tablet as a stand-alone camera to see who is at my front door. It is connected to an Arlo Pro security camera.

    This product is a little bulky and difficult to handle. The tablet slides on the mount and the charging connections always slide. Tried double sided Velcro and tjat helped a bit

    Got this for a super add on price with purchase of the Fire 8 inch table. Great use and purpose for the stand. Using in clock mode and charging tablet. Always leave it in the stand mode.

    It doesn't provide a good support. Also the show mode device is not compatible with several other Amazon devices like Buttons and the new wall clock.

    Makes it easy to hookup my Amazon table to connect to my network and works in conjunction with my Spot, Dot and Echo. Needs some improvement, adding additional features, but works well.

    Found out you can turn a HD Fire 8 into an Echo Show and instantly went and bought this. Super easy to set up and very convenient.
