- Jada BrownMad MadThis Alexa show 5 doesn’t answer when i call, light up whatever, it’s not working right! Some times it’s ok, then some times it’s not working!! I’m so upset, I can’t write the review the way I want! It would be horrible words! I contacted them, and they handled it right away!! So i had to come back, and change my review! Now happy!!
- Paul BA great addition to my Alexa home setup with better voice response and a great photo displayThis is my second Echo Show. The first one, which I inherited from my mother-in-law, is in the kitchen where it rotates through family photos. I added this newest Echo Show 5 to my great room, and it has quickly become one of my favorite devices with a good value for the price. I keep it on the end table next to my chair so I can glance over and enjoy old family photos as they rotate through. It is also very convenient for checking my outdoor Blink cameras when the dogs start barking, since the camera feed loads faster than getting my phone out.
I have been using it for about a week, and setup was incredibly smooth. Because it was added to my existing Alexa household, everything came with settings for my account. It connected right away, and the whole process took only a few minutes. The device has a solid weight, and the speaker quality is very good for listening to music in the background.
Day to day, it responds quickly to voice commands and the screen is crisp. I did reduce the brightness a bit from the default, but that was more of a personal preference than a flaw. I have not found anything to be concerned about with this model. In fact, Alexa + seems to understand my questions more accurately compared to previous version, with fewer misunderstandings.
This is a great device if you enjoy seeing your photos, listening to music, or checking camera feeds easily. It fits naturally into my smart home setup and has become something I use regularly. - KimbaI held off for years - very happy I finally purchased it/them!In all authenticity I've stayed away from all things Alexa since day one and never wanted it in my home. I'm a tech savvy nerd who saw/noticed that technology was going down the wrong fork in the road a few decades ago and began reversing things "in my control" at my end. I finally caved on Alexa, though skeptical, I enjoy my privacy and right to anonymity, which we little to none left of. True, no matter how many settings I shut off I know what Alexa, Siri and being online itself causes (any WIFI and Bluetooth connection), but I did cave and I'm enjoying these a great deal.
Voice recognition is superb, they've obviously done a lot more with Alexa than Apple has done with poor Siri who barely functions anymore. Connection is amazing in my home, I bought 2, one upstairs, one downstairs, then paired them. Setup was super quick - though I don't love having to use the App, again I've reversed things "in my control" for quite a few years which includes no use of any apps other than staples (camera, photos, text, etc.), so I'm not thrilled that I need to use the App, but I use it briefly, do whatever I need to do on it and immediately close it.
These little guys are wonderful, sound is fantastic, and that's with one speaker upstairs and one speaker downstairs, you can't even tell that it's setup that way - excellent sound! Volume is wonderful and I've really been enjoying it! I still have a way to go on learning the ins and outs, I find a setting, set it, then forget where I saw it/found it to adjust it, but I'm super new to anything Alexa and the Echo. As much as I love it and I do, I don't know if my direct through the wall home owner loves how loud I have one of my alarms set "KIMBA IT'S TIME TO TAKE A SHOWER - YOU NEED TO GO TO UPS" is set so loud with a repeat 3 times LOL. It cracks me up, but it's amazing!
I bought the stands (sold separately) for each and I'm really happy I did. I think this Echo is worth every penny and I'm thrilled that I bought 2 of them - I love that when I run upstairs and downstairs I don't lose the songs I'm listening to. One thing I adore, once I figured it out, is the ability to shut off insights and all things I don't want to see or hear about - I just love the music, the alarms, lists, reminders and weather. It's hilarious, I keep saying (again very new) Hey Alexa, I mean Hey Siri, no I mean Alexa ... and then Siri/on my phone says something like I'm sorry but I think you're looking for a different service haha.
Excellent product, excellent quality! - Nancy AsteriEcho Show 5 (3rd Gen) CharcoalSet up was a breeze. Works great with the exception of I can’t play music. At first it was because I had set up Apple Music and I wasn’t able to use Amazon music. I unlined Apple and was able to play regular Amazon music and now it seems I can’t. I have to go tru settings and press music. I reset the settings and it’s still not working properly. The size is perfect for my small space. Volume is great, it can be really loud. I’m still trying to figure it.
- Raymond MorroSO LAGGY SOOOOO LAGGY my personal opinions stick to the echo dotNOT GOOD! Obviously this is just my two cents in my opinion on this other people might have had good ones but The only way that this will get seen is if I put a five stars or else Amazon will take it off
So when we first got it, I could already tell right off the bat that it was laggy so incredibly laggy the screen would not work I mean right out of the gate. I opened the box plugged it in and put it on Wi-Fi. Did the updates all of that and still the thing would not respond
it took Alexa almost 5 to 10 business daysto process any request. The model is good. The concept for the model is really good because it is small. It’s compact way smaller than I originally thought it was gonna look but the screen not good volume control pretty decent but my echo dot has way better sound volume than this thing has if you’re literally just wanting it for a screen hook up an iPad to the wall because you’ll get way more response that way than you will from this.
