More Useful than Expected
I purchased this Echo Show to interface with a Blink Camera. I had never used an Alexa enabled device and have found it is much more useful and fun than I expected. This Echo Show sounds great when playing music and can provide a lot of information. Setup was a little more complicated than expected and had to spend about 30 minutes before I got the hang of it. Only down side of this Echo Show is that it does not have battery backup. Always has to be plugged in to work. Would buy again.

Working now after new restart ~Now working
UPDATE
I am so happy to report that my echo show five is now working after I receive a called from customer service and they told me to press the mute button as well as the minus volume down button for 30 seconds after doing that show five restarted and I was able to reprogram it again and it is currently working so I am very very happy for the reach out by customer service, and the follow up to make sure I was satisfied. Thank you Amazon for your attention to detail and quick response regarding what I needed to do.
Thank you J**** for the call and your patience.
I bought this item in July 2023 and as of October 2024 the product has stopped working. It is stuck on the Amazon screen and I have done everything possible to reboot. The echo show five and still to no avail so I am stuck with a very expensive nonworking item.

Amazing, user friendly device!
We have an echo in the bedroom with its touch screen/cool capabilities but this is even better for our living room and to use as a command center for the house. I appreciate having the larger screen but not pad size that I may have trouble finding a good spot for.
As with any smart amazon device I have ever purchased, it was packed nicely, easy to set up and get going with, especially being able to sign into the device with your amazon account with your approval before the item is even turned on.
Honestly what I like about this device is that afyer scrolling through the options and available apps to use, it made me realize how much I was underutilizing our other alexa devices as they all have similar great capabilities.
My highlights are the calming music for dogs, the overall interface with scrolling news, weather and amazon notifications as well as it’s beautiful sound quality. Overall an extremely awesome device that I am loving!

Nice improvements
I recently picked up the Amazon Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen) in Glacier White, and I’m really impressed with its performance. The sound quality is significantly better than the previous model, with rich bass that enhances music and video playback. The 5.5-inch display is perfect for watching quick clips and making video calls, and Alexaâs voice recognition is good. My only complaint is that the screen could be a bit brighter for better visibility in well-lit rooms. Overall, it’s a fantastic smart display that fits seamlessly into my kitchen and daily routine!

Perfect!
This is perfect for our living room, itâs so easy for us to watch from our phone as well we can also add I it ring to this so when weâre in the kitchen we also get notified on there. I enjoy having it so much and all of the great apps itâs has. The quality is great it shows perfectly I donât think I have much complains. I do wish the screen was bigger but other than that I do love having this!

Price Friendly
I have had many different Alexa devices and this one is my current favorite. It is super easy to use and even easier to set up using the Alexa app. I love how you were able to connect different devices such as your doorbell camera or outdoor cameras to this device. The speakers play music really well and the display is not too sensitive and looks great. There are also so many different games that you are able to play on the Alexa, which can be a lot of fun.

A Compact Smart Display with Impressive Sound Quality
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.

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.

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