Product details

On the 5.5" display of the ECHO Show 5, you can see news and weather information at a glance, stream music and series and much more. Set an alarm clock and a timer by voice command and set up a morning
routine that switches on the light to wake you up and plays your favourite song as a wake-up tone.

ECHO Show 5 now has even better speakers, for clearer voices, deeper bass and powerful, rich sound. Simply ask Alexa to stream music, podcasts or audiobooks or play your favourite shows and enjoy an even more dynamic audio experience.

Amazon's fastest ECHO Show 5 yet offers faster responses from Alexa for quick control of your smart home, such as when you want to switch off compatible lights in your home without getting out of bed. Managing smart home devices is now even easier - tap the screen, set schedules for routines or simply ask Alexa for help with a voice command.

With the integrated camera, you can keep an eye on your family, pets and more, even when you're out and about. With compatible video doorbells, you can also display your entrance on the ECHO Show 5.

Voice call friends and family who have ECHO Show or the Alexa app. Send announcements to other compatible Echo devices in your home and use Drop In as an intercom for different rooms or your favourite Alexa contacts.

With Amazon Photos, you can turn your home screen into a digital photo frame. Your pictures can be displayed on it alternately with other content on the home screen or as a slideshow. Prime members also benefit from unlimited cloud storage for photos.

Alexa can help children learn - in a fun way. With the free Amazon Kids parental controls, Alexa also automatically gives child-friendly answers, can filter songs with offensive content and block purchases. The protection of your children's data is very important to Amazon.

Alexa and ECHO Show devices are equipped with multiple layers of privacy protection. These provide transparency and control over your Alexa experience. For example, you can switch the microphone and camera on and off at the touch of a button, slide the integrated camera cover in front of the lens or delete your voice recordings.

With the third generation of the Echo Show 5, Amazon is carefully updating the model. The more powerful sound and the overall improved performance are small, but nevertheless noticeable advances. Viewed on its own, the Echo Show does a rock-solid job as an Alexa smart display. It reliably accepts voice commands and implements them quickly...

The new ECHO Show 8 does a lot better than its predecessors, and the faster working speed was a particular favourite during testing. It also retains many virtues such as the crisp display and the great voice control. However, the smart home hub is probably the most practical new feature.
