Echo Show is a need!!!
I have had the Echo Show my a couple months now and I have to say, I use it for so many things in my daily routine. The screen is clear, and the volume is good. The responses are quick and accurate, and I absolutely love how I can control my smart home devices with just my voice (I have 6 smart bulbs). Overall, the Echo Show met and exceeded my expectations and has become an essential part of my home I just love the smart home aspect. Highly recommend it!

    The Amazon Echo Show 8 is a perfect blend of size, functionality, and affordability. Its 8-inch HD screen is great for video calls, streaming, and smart home controls while being compact enough to fit easily on a nightstand or kitchen counter.

    The sound quality is impressive for its size, delivering clear and balanced audio. Alexa responds quickly, and the device seamlessly integrates with smart home gadgets. The upgraded camera with auto-framing makes video calls more engaging.

    Overall, the Echo Show 8 is a versatile smart display that’s ideal for daily tasks, entertainment, and communication. A great choice for those who want Alexa with a screen without taking up too much space!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Love this device... wish I could watch cable DVR on it!

    We had an original Amazon Echo in the kitchen. Tiny... plugged into a socket...done! It wasn't very loud, and had a crappy speaker, but I figured it was good for turning things on/off, basic stuff. So when the annual sales came around, I saw a deal on this thing. Compared it to other devices...the smaller, rounded ones, even the larger Show... this one is perfect! It's nestled inbetween things against the wall on the counter - didn't think it would look good mounted. It's for the kitchen. When cooking, I can watch some channels, even Amazon Prime video. Too bad it won't connect to our Verizon DVR - need a larger Echo Show for that, apparently! But it's got a fast response, can get very loud, and so far, the WiFi has been decent.

    Not sure how to limit pictures of things I've been searching using my Amazon account, though! Sometimes, I don't want my wife to see the gifts for her that I'm investigating! This thing gives it away. Probably a setting to fix that. Once we get the AI up to ChatGPT-level, you'll be able to have full-blown conversations!

    A plus.. we have an ARLO camera system. Until this, we'd only been able to view them via the app. I can simply say, "Ziggy," - yeah, we named it Ziggy - "show me the Front Door.." and voila, the Front Door appears! That's very handy for checking when someone's at the door and we're in the kitchen. Like all the other Alexa devices, this one does the same things, and has other features, like gestures..which I tried, but didn't figure out how to use yet. Mostly, we use it to turn the multiple WiFi-based Kasa devices I have in the kitchen - LED under-cabinet lights, color-changing, and overhead lighting. It's pretty durable.. and the basic stand works well. It doesn't take up much room, which is a plus, but the screen is very clear, and bright! And...it's the best sound I've ever heard from an Alexa device. It's definitely changed the kitchen experience for us!

    I really like the new larger screen. This replaced my quirky, small Echo Show that was beginning to lag and malfunction. The speaker quality seems much improved, as does the display. I did the setup after ordering and prior to receiving, but not all my settings migrated to this new model. I’m still figuring it out, as there are some differences. Still, I REALLY like all the features: news, weather, photos, shopping, lists, reminders, our camera views on-screen, music, I can ask it to run my robovac, and I even have it set to detect when my dogs bark-I receive a notification and then it plays “dog calming” music, haha. Definitely worth it!

    I’m absolutely loving my Alexa, I have the echo show 8 in glacier white. I have the original 2018 HomePods that I’ve been using since 2018 and they just have let me down repeatedly. Apple hasn’t really added anything new at all nor have they continued innovating the HomePod line like Amazon has with their various echo “Alexa” enabled devices. I cost ask my HomePods much without it telling me I can’t, but Alexa on the other hand has an answer for pretty much everything and that is soooo much better to have around.

    The sound quality of the device is actually amazing. Having only ever used apples HomePod and seeing the quality of friends and family’s older echos and google homes, I always thought HomePod was the top. But echo show 8 is literally on par with a HomePod. It truly lives up to the “spatial audio” name.

    The screen quality is actually pretty good for being a basic screen. It’s overall pretty responsive to the point it’s not annoying to use.

    The built in camera quality is pretty good as well! Only thing it suffers with is being placed in direct sunlight. But when positioned correctly it’s a pretty good picture quality.

    The built in smarts of Alexa are way beyond what I’m use too. I purchased a fire tv 4K max as well and have found out that you can control the entire thing hands free, and not just basic on/off, find X…show. But you can ask Alexa to scroll left/right/down/up and ask her to select items onscreen. I can be all nice a cozy in my blanket wrapped up and get Alexa to click the next episode button for me…… worth the price of all of it right there! Siri could never!

    I’m impressed with Alexa and absolutely cannot wait for Alexa+ to make it even better.

    This thing is AMAZING, especially with my Blink Outdoor cameras! The setup was ridiculously easy, and now I can check all my camera feeds right on the screen. It’s so smooth and responsive, no lag or fuss, and it makes keeping an eye on things around the house super convenient. The audio is fantastic too, so I can even hear what’s going on outside if I need to. I’m constantly amazed by how seamlessly it all works together, like they were made for each other. Seriously.

    El echo show 8 es un buen producto.
    No es una bocina de alta calidad en la que pretendamos oír música en alta definicion, pero cumple con funciones prometidas y esperadas. El diseño es atractivo y la relación calidad/precio, bien.
