5.0 out of 5 stars Alexa is dumber than dirt
Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2024
This unit has the best sound. Hard to beat spatial speakers. It does a lot of fun things. displays your photos, plays Amazon music, works well with the Ring doorbell system. Alexa can perform simple task but has difficulty finding music albums that I ask for, and do not ask her a technical question. She dies on the vine. I gave mine to my granddaughter. The decision to dump it was it started playing commercials over my photographs. I did not purchase this unit to see adds over my photos. Good by Echo Show. Not ever again.
Doesn't Amazon make enough money elsewhere? Also, you must know you cannot place the screen face down. It goes crazy changing music every few notes. The screen starts flashing and nothing works. I had a hard time getting to the programming buttons to reset it back to factory and start over. It works well after that. A very weak control board!

I put this in our guest room for the clock and music features. We turned off the camera as it is not the best feature on the Alexa product. The camera works but does not move so it is kinda useless. We love all the other features.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Compact Smart Display with Impressive Sound Quality
Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2024
I've been using the Amazon Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen, 2023 release) for a few weeks now, and I am thoroughly impressed with its performance. The Echo Show 5 has always been a reliable smart display, but this latest version truly steps up the game, especially in terms of sound quality.

**Sound Quality:**
One of the standout features of this Echo Show is its upgraded sound system. With 2x the bass and clearer sound than its predecessors, the audio quality is surprisingly robust for such a compact device. Whether I'm listening to music, catching up on the news, or watching videos, the sound is rich and immersive. It's perfect for smaller rooms, like the kitchen or bedroom, where you want good audio without the need for a larger speaker.

**Display and Design:**
The 5.5-inch screen is sharp and vibrant, making it great for watching short clips, checking the weather, or making video calls. The compact design fits easily on any shelf or counter, and the Charcoal color gives it a sleek, modern look that blends well with any decor. The screen's adaptive brightness is a nice touch, adjusting automatically based on the room's lighting.

**Smart Features and Alexa Integration:**
As expected from an Echo device, the Alexa integration is seamless. Voice commands are picked up easily, even from across the room, and the responses are quick and accurate. I use it to control my smart home devices, set reminders, and even follow along with recipes. The new smart display features also make it easier to see and control multiple smart home devices at once, which is a huge plus for someone like me who has a lot of them.

**Privacy and Security:**
Amazon has included a physical shutter for the camera, which provides peace of mind for those who are concerned about privacy. There's also a mic/camera off button, which is easy to use and effectively disables both the microphone and camera.

**Overall Performance:**
The Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen) is a fantastic addition to any smart home setup. It offers a great balance of audio quality, smart features, and privacy controls. Whether you're new to smart displays or looking to upgrade, this device is definitely worth considering. It's small but mighty, and I find myself using it more than I expected for everything from checking my calendar to watching cooking videos.

4.0 out of 5 stars It’s Just OK
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2024
I thought this would be as customizable as you can get. The time option presents with an overlay of itself. If you see a story just before it changes the screen, it doesn’t understand that you’d like to go back. You have to wait 5 minutes for it to cycle through all the predetermined information you didn’t ask for. Even then, that particular story that caught your interest may be on a cycle of stories all its own.

Setup is relatively easy as you have limited options considering it has a screen.

Otherwise it is of excellent quality. The camera cover seems cheap, but that’s a minor issue to me. Sound quality is good as are the images. It takes up minimal space. The screen is super sensitive.

The Amazon Echo Show has completely transformed how I manage my day! This smart device does it all, it's my personal assistant, entertainment hub, and smart home controller all rolled into one sleek package.

Setting it up was a breeze. Within minutes, I was enjoying voice-controlled access to music, weather updates, and even recipes while cooking. The display is crisp and responsive, perfect for watching videos or checking my calendar at a glance.

I love how seamlessly it integrates with my other smart home devices. From adjusting lights to checking security cameras, the Echo Show makes controlling my home effortless. The voice recognition is impressively accurate, even in noisy environments.

One of my favorite features is the video calling. It’s like having a face-to-face conversation with loved ones, and the sound and picture quality are excellent. Plus, the skills and apps available through Alexa constantly expand its capabilities.

If you’re looking to add convenience and connectivity to your home, the Amazon Echo Show is a must-have. It’s intuitive, versatile, and has become an indispensable part of my daily life. Highly recommended for anyone ready to embrace smart home technology!

5.0 out of 5 stars Loving my Alexa
Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2024
Never had an alexa device before and I was looking into security doorbells and got this with the blink doorbell camera. The set up was easy. It's easy to use. The quality of the device is great. Alexa is sensitive to picking up other voices if it hears someone else even on my phone saying Alexa. Very useful when I want to know the weather or updated news and even to play music. Absolutely love my Alexa device and would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable device to set their security up to.
