Compact, Smart, and Improved Sound
The Amazon Echo Show 5 is a fantastic little device that packs a surprising punch for its size. The sound quality has noticeably improved from earlier versions, with deeper bass and clearer audio that works well for music, videos, and even alarms. The 5-inch display is sharp and bright, perfect for quick glances at weather updates, recipes, or video calls without taking up much space.The Alexa integration is seamless, as always, and Iâve been using it for everything from setting timers to controlling smart home devices. The camera shutter for privacy is a thoughtful touch, and the device is easy to set up and customize.If I had to nitpick, the screen size might feel limiting if youâre looking for a larger display for streaming or detailed visuals. Also, the speaker is great for its size but not quite room-filling if youâre expecting full stereo quality.Overall, itâs an excellent choice for someone looking for a compact, versatile smart display. Whether itâs for your nightstand, kitchen counter, or office desk, this Echo Show delivers great features and sound in a sleek, affordable package.

Versatile, small and convenient
We love this, my parents received one as a gift last year and we had to buy one for our home. This is a great way to call family and friends, you can listen to music, ask for the weather, news, recipes, create a shopping list or ask anything that comes to mind. We recommend it all our friends.

Perfect Tech Product for everyone in the family!
We bought this over Christmas as a family present. It does more than I even thought. We can watch shows, listen to music, read recipes while cooking with no problem and the quality of sound and picture is excellent. The display is very clear and product is easy to use. So many features. I highly recommend. It also looks very chic on my kitchen countertop!

My echo.
Everything works well, except the camera. Does not work like it supposed to. No surveillance.

Excellent Deal! I guess you get what you pay for
Honestly haven’t opened it yet. Been so busy. Hopefully my bad luck doesn’t get me! Excellent price. I’ve wanted one for a while too!!! Thanks to Cyber Monday I cannot believe the price I paid! Awesome, fast shipping even during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Let’s hope it works great ðP L E A S E – – – READ MY EXPERIENCE UPDATE AFTER USING IT FOR 2 WKS. The disappointment started hours after plugging it in 2 Saturdays ago (Today is Dec 25th, 2023)**UPDATE DECEMBER 25TH, 2023**MAJOR disappointment.It needs every subscription under the sun to enjoy 99% of it fully. Even “Find my Phone” is a charge! My “Google Bot” does not charge me for that.It glitches a lot. In the 2 weeks it’s been plugged in I’ve had to hard boot it 3 times.AMAZON music sub or forget using it to play music you want. They support so many platforms… Not YouTube Red.I bought the blink system, no pun intended, the cameras echo through the ECHO. 4 camera on sale too and so disappointed.All games want you to pay for a service to use it fully.No tier service plans… Just 25 bucks for this, 4.99 for that, 19.99 for this.. Like make a tier system or something.It does not work friendly through the app or the ECHO itself. There is no way to have it on adaptive lighting and even wake it up and have the screen brighten a bit. Literally, no option for it. Like come on who can see that dark screen.. If you prompt it I should give off light.It’s not as friendly in its demeanor as “The Google Bot”. No personality. No swearing. I asked it about a serious local news situation that the country is aware of for Vegas since the 6th of Dec, it told me “Not sure what you’re asking for” my “Google Bot” gave me a 15 min break down of the first min of the horrible situation at my alma mater to the latest news. Sad.The technology using it to do video calls, garbage. My tech abilities are expert level so no it’s no my internet. My call with my mom and my husband both skipping, freezing. On their end and mine. Oh and forget adding all of your contacts.. That’s a charge too. Otherwise you get 10 contacts it saves on itself only.I’m so sad. I really was excited for this newer technology since I’ve had my “Google Bot” for six years.. It does more and knows more than this Echo.The charges are the absolute worst for me. Find my phone? Really? Give me a break.The speaker, not good over 50 to 60% ((60% is the highest you can go without it being tingy. I adjusted the mids, nothing changes… Even the little ask me the animal of the day if you want to keep going it does.. And shows you more animal sounds. But if you want MORE you have to pay for the service… For animal sounds….. Come on.The smooth transition of screen to screen in where it flips through news….. Sadly lagging and skipping.–IN CLOSING – – It’s nothing of what I expected in speed. It’s 6 feet from my modem…. It’s not my connection…for the skipping screens. Lagging stories on the news when you ask it what’s the story? Video calls… Useless. IT’S NOT even WORTH the sale price I got it for. Not even close.The abilities it has to run your whole house, garage doors, emergency help, smoke, CO, thermostat list us longer than I’ve ever seen. If I can’t even have me tell me what my local university updates are without it faking to even kno about it, who thinks I would roll the dice and pay all these subs and get more electronics to make the long list of things actually work.1 star for technology for 20230 stars for personality, voice choice0 stars for everything having a subscription montky cost.0 stars for ease of use0 stars for quality – freezing, skipping, lagging video play.0 for sound.0 for ease of app use with it0 for BLINK app to use with Alexa3 for looks, esthetic wise2 for functions like making the screen brighter on adaptive lighting when touching it or voice prompting it0 for cost of subs, extra gear.1 for all it can do but at the price of each monthly cost to have them. Too afraid to buy the extras and add a subscription to it too.4 stars for pre set up before even having it sent to me. Through email. Impressed, and that was the last time I was.0 for more free options for even things like voices of Alexa, diff prompt names for Alexa, are all words I’d use every day but Ziggy do I went with that and still certain words I say pick it up and listen.Overall average score for me (above stars) 2 stars all around.Sincerely – – – – -Disappointed in Prime/Amazon/Amazon’s Customer Service.***UPDATE: December 31, 2023***Glitches every day. I have to reboot it at least once a day. It gets stuck in broken half screen is black, loops. There is a glitch that happens every day after I do a routine in the afternoon and gets stuck doing this weird clock I don’t normally see.I’m calling Customer Service and getting a replacement. If that too is garbage, it’s being returned and I want a refund.

Makes the echo easier to use and looks good.

The stand is a no brainer as it allows the screen to be easily seen especially in the dark.

Upgraded from a regular echo to this in kitchen. Love it, especially having visual reminders of any timers set, being able to watch movies etc. only downside is no Netflix.
