I recently updated from the Echo Pop, to this Echo Show 8. It's a sleek looking 3rd generation touchscreen. I bought it for my disabled husband, who has dexterity issues when trying to dial via cell phone. Now he uses gross motor movements for the touchscreen or a voice command to not only call family but view them. The Echo smartly sits up by design to allow you to view it like a small television screen. Ive fallen in love with the device. Daily Im excited to ask Alexa to play music for enjoyment via amazon music, meanwhile the screen displays the lyrics in large print. The stereo sound is phenomenal. Visitors have been surprised to find the Echo is whats generating such quality sound. My husband now ask Alexa, "who's the artist?", instead of quizzing me. Lol. Im so satisfied with my purchase. It's so easy to set up and operate, that Im now going to buy one for my mom. It just requires your wifi address and password.

I am totally impressed with the amount of things this echo can do to make my life easier to remember and the Big screen is a plus since I have gotten older and my vision is not so good. The sound is amazing to listen to while cooking and I Absolutely love the shopping list to remember what I need before I go to the store. That feature is so helpful for me.

We picked ip the new ECHO 8 inch monitor on sale at are local Best Buy store during the early Black Friday Christmas sale event. I am having a small issue in connecting up to my up graded service provider's WiFi network but I will contact them after they reopen again. I am sure it is a small issue. I would still recomend it to others.

I recently upgraded to the latest Amazon Alexa, and I must say, it's been a game-changer in my daily routine! From the moment I plugged it in, I was impressed by its sleek design and intuitive interface. The setup process was a breeze, allowing me to connect it to my Wi-Fi and customize my preferences in no time.
The voice recognition is simply outstanding. Whether I’m in the kitchen cooking or relaxing in the living room, Alexa hears me clearly and responds almost instantly. I love how I can ask for the weather, set reminders, or even control my smart home devices with just my voice. The integration with other smart devices has made managing my home so much easier and more efficient.
One of my favorite features is the ability to create routines. I’ve set it up so that when I say “Good morning,” Alexa turns on the lights, starts my coffee maker, and gives me a rundown of the day’s news. It’s like having a personal assistant who’s always on call!
The music quality is impressive as well. Whether I’m listening to my favorite playlists or discovering new artists, the sound is rich and clear. Plus, the ability to access various streaming services makes it easy to enjoy music whenever I want.
Overall, the Amazon Alexa has exceeded my expectations. It’s not just a gadget; it’s a valuable addition to my home that enhances my lifestyle. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to simplify their life and embrace the convenience of voice-activated technology.

Great accessory to my apartment. I love that it gives me the ability to turn on and off many of my appliances and lights with the sound of my voice, allowing me to have my hands free to handle other tasks. I wake up every morning and ask “Alexa what’s the weather”. Before I walk out of the door it’s Alexa turn everything off”. The unit sets on my kitchen counter so it’s easily accessible when I want to look up videos of recipes or if I just want to jam out to some tunes I’ll tell Alexa to put on whatever I want to hear. What an awesome device to have at your disposal.

I ended up buying a new one to upgrade from the one that I previously had for a long time since 2019 and honestly I love this one. The screen is much bigger than the other one and personally it’s also louder which I enjoy. It helps as well when needing an alarm to wake up in the morning. When I first took it out of the package, I was shocked on how big the screen was from my previous one.

I am thoroughly enjoying my new Amazon Echo Show 8 (3rd Generation), an 8-inch Smart Display with Alexa. I particularly appreciate its exceptional screen quality, sound capabilities, and the ample screen size. Additionally, its comprehensive features make it an invaluable device for entertainment purposes, such as streaming Netflix directly on the display. I highly recommend purchasing one. I am particularly fond of mine, as I can listen to soothing rain sounds while I sleep.

Good size for the echos.
We have many of these products. Get the total tech warranty if you buy multiple things at BB over the year; the sound went out in 1 of them in 6 weeks. So it was worth buying and doing total tech.

This product is great! It has made things so much easier for my family by setting reminders for us and when we’re lazy turning lights on and off. It’s also a great little speaker to play music on.

I am in love with Echo Show 8, we play music all the time using the Spotify app or watch movies on Netflix or Amazon Video, the audio and video quality is excellent but most of all I love seeing all our family photos, this brings me so many beautiful memories.
