I got this for our family Christmas gift. For our master bedroom then ordered a Dot for family room. We have no children at home now. So I’m learning yet it’s so nice to be able to have voice command. I also ordered the light idk what it’s called. Smart light. lol. Yet I enjoy listening to my Amazon music streams. So I’m still in the learning phase. Yet I love it . Thank you.

The Amazon Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen) has exceeded my expectations! Its 8-inch HD screen displays vibrant colors, making it perfect for video calls and streaming. The upgraded camera with a 13MP sensor ensures crystal-clear video quality. Alexa’s responsiveness is impressive, seamlessly integrating with my smart home devices. The audio quality is also a standout, delivering rich and clear sound. It’s the perfect balance of functionality and entertainment. It is highly recommended for anyone looking to enhance their smart home experience! The stand is a must-have with this product.
I traded my older echo dot and received a rebate which almost payed for the upgrade. This sounds better and has a bigger screen. You are able to upload 10 picture from your phone to the show. The colors are amazing. When I video call to my kids the picture is much larger and a lot clearer. Very happy with the new show, better than using my iPhone for video calls. Highly recommend!
A great piece of kit, well built and brilliant workmanship but definitely limited in its current capabilities.
I find myself at times not knowing whether I want to swipe down or swipe right, to find a usable menu.
Once the user interface section has been accessed the flow and user ability gets better, but still leaves a lot to be desired.
I bought the Echo show 8 as a screen to show My ring doorbell on, and for that it works wonders. But in terms If it’s overall usefulness I have to question the interface.
If you’re using it as a device that gets glanced at every 5-10mins for the latest news scoop , weather update, or time. It does a good job of that. But anything over and above that and I am left wanting more.
Navigating to silk can sometimes seem cumbersome, unless voice commands are used, the Smart Home Screen and what fees like an infinite scroll could use a lot of work. Certainly a grid like feature or the ability to customise these tabs would make a massive improvement. The rooms feature here is nice, as it gathers functions, but still a lot to be improved upon. The media/music section could be better. It could open up a world of possibilities here, to select and steam at the touch of button to multiple devices, selected via Toggle buttons, scroll through playlists and artists, search songs. Not just a last played list. Giving you 5-10 choices on music you have already listened too. This as a mini media control panel would be epic. Maybe not the design they were going for, but allow the user a degree of customisation to improve the overall experience.
The pros, the sound quality is great for a little show, nice punchy bass, but not over the top, highs are crisp, and no “tinniness” coming through. Excuse the poor choice of words, but couldn’t think of a better description.
On a whole a great little device, good build quality but can’t help feeling like I want a little more usage out of it.

Not a steep learning curve.

Bought this as a part of a package deal whilst upgrading my old Echo Show, and I've been really impressed with how it lifts the echo and adds a useful tilt feature, great for using video and looking at recipes in the kitchen!
The base itself is really sturdy and well-built, and I'd have no issues buying another of these in the future
