HIGH QUALITY.. IMPRESSIVE.. IDIOT PROOF
VERY IMPRESSIVE DEVICE.I HAVE THE ECHO DOT AND THE ECHO SHOW 8 WORKS JUST AS WELL BUT HAS THE 8-IN SCREEN.GREAT SOUND GREAT PICTURE FAST RESPONSE VERY EASY TO OPERATE.THE FEATURE I LIKE THE MOST IS IN THE MORNING WHEN I'M IN THE KITCHEN MAKING BREAKFAST I DON'T HAVE TO TOUCH A TV REMOTE TO GET TO THE NEWS STATION ALL I HAVE TO DO IS USE MY VOICE.I THINK THIS IS AN EXTREMELY WELL MADE DEVICE.ANOTHER INTERESTING FEATURE IT HAS IS FOR INSTANCE IF YOU HOLD UP A COFFEE CAN IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA AND ASK IT WHAT'S IN MY HAND IT'LL TELL YOU AND SHOW YOU WHAT YOU HAVE.THIS COMPACT DEVICE ELIMINATED THE 22-IN TELEVISION I HAD ON THE KITCHEN TABLE AND IS FAR SUPERIOR IN PERFORMANCE OF THINGS THAT IT CAN DO.GOT TO LOVE AMAZON THEY REALLY GO THE EXTRA MILE FOR THE CUSTOMER. THERE WAS A TINY CRACK ON THE SIDE OF THE FRONT AND WHEN I CALLED THEM UP ABOUT IT THEY OFFERED ME $35 NOT TO SEND IT BACK TO LIVE WITH THE LITTLE CRACK IN THE CORNER AND I WAS VERY SATISFIED WITH THAT SINCE IT WASN'T IN THE VIEWING AREA OF THE SCREEN.

Convenient!!!
The Amazon Echo Show 8 has quickly become one of my favorite gadgets at home. The screen is the perfect size, big enough to watch videos, make video calls, or follow recipes, but still small enough to fit nicely on a counter or nightstand. The sound is surprisingly full and clear, making music and podcasts a joy to listen to. I love how Alexa can now show me things, whether it’s my calendar, the weather, or a live view from my security cameras. It’s easy to set up, simple to use, and the built-in camera even has a cover for privacy, which I really appreciate. It’s one of those devices you find yourself using every day without even thinking about it.

Definently worth it and affordable.
So when i was waiting for my order and when it came, i setted i up, and it worked out well, it works good, and nothing bad happened. i liked the Alexa+ but id rather keep with the old Alexa because its more classic but i like both better. The voice recognition was not bad! the size didnt matter even though it was a little small and big at the same time, Brightness, not bad at all! it looks good with brightness at no matter what. the control capacity was exactly perfect. i could swipe down and more stuff. it worked great with the smart home items like my lights and more. the coolness what really also not the bad. and also the temperature was really not that extreme hot! so yes it is worth it and YOU, yes, YOU should buy it too :3
