Amazing Device
I’m really happy with my Echo Show 8. The screen is a good size, the sound quality is clear, and it’s very easy to use. I especially like using it to display family photos, check the weather, set reminders and timers, and listen to music. The setup was simple and the device looks great in the home. Overall, it’s a useful and convenient smart display, and I’m very happy with my purchase.

Enjoying my Alexa
Purchased this to go in my kitchen and it has been so handy with setting timers and being able to play music and have it paired with my doorbell.

It is everything we expected.
All the features are pretty good, and it turned out to be kid-friendly. My 5 and 4-year-old kids can choose music and videos they like to watch, and when we don't want them to use it, we can easily restrict their access. The sound system is great, and the facility to add items to our shopping list, which connects to our phones, is very handy.

Sleek and packed full of tech
A great upgrade from previous versions! Looks really sleek and the sound quality is brilliant. Alexa responding and opening of apps can still be a little slow, a common feature of previous generations. Will be purchasing another one soon, very much worth the money. Great service from the team at Gepps Cross The Good Guys, price matched and even beat Amazon directly and in stock. 10/10 as ever!

At a glance

It suits kitchens, bedrooms and shared living spaces, with Wi-Fi 6E, Zigbee, Matter and Thread support adding flexibility. Its main limitation is that the 8.7 inch display is less immersive than larger premium smart displays.

Things to consider
Compared with larger premium smart displays, the 8.7 inch screen gives you less viewing space for video, recipes and dashboard-style smart home controls.
Smart home ecosystem compatibility
Strong support for Alexa-based homes with Zigbee, Matter and Thread compatibility for lights, plugs, cameras and other connected devices
Voice assistant performance score
9/10 - Alexa voice control is well suited to everyday questions, routines, timers and smart home commands
Music quality rating
8/10 - spatial audio adds a richer listening experience, though it is not a replacement for larger dedicated speakers
Multi-room flexibility
8/10 - compact size and wireless connectivity make it easy to place around the home, but it still needs a mains power point
Family friendliness
9/10 - useful for shared reminders, recipes, timers, video calls and smart home controls in common household spaces
Key benefits
- 8.7 inch HD touchscreen: Gives you a clear, practical screen for recipes, video calls, timers and smart home controls without taking up much bench or bedside space.
- Spatial audio: Delivers fuller, more room-filling sound than a basic smart speaker, making music, podcasts and video content more engaging.
- Wi-Fi 6E connectivity: Supports newer wireless networks for more reliable streaming and responsive smart display use in compatible home setups.
- Zigbee, Matter and Thread support: Lets it connect with a wide range of compatible smart home devices, reducing the need for separate hubs in many setups.
- Temperature sensor: Helps support simple home automations, such as adjusting compatible devices when room conditions change.
- RGB ambient light sensor: Adjusts the display experience to suit surrounding light, making the screen more comfortable to view through the day.
- Ultrasound motion detection: Can trigger compatible routines when someone enters the space, adding more hands-free convenience at home.
- Built-in camera with privacy controls: Makes video calls and visual check-ins easy while giving you more confidence over when the camera is active.
Q: Does Echo Show 8 need to stay plugged in all the time?
A: Yes. Echo Show 8 is designed for mains power, so it suits a fixed spot like a kitchen bench, bedside table or shelf. It is not intended as a portable display you regularly move from room to room without power.
Q: Can Echo Show 8 control smart lights without a separate hub?
A: Yes, for compatible devices. Echo Show 8 works with Zigbee, Matter and Thread products, so some lights, plugs and sensors can be controlled directly through Alexa or the touchscreen instead of needing a separate hub.
Q: How private is the camera and microphone on Echo Show 8?
A: Echo Show 8 includes a built-in camera and privacy controls, which is useful if it will sit in a shared room or bedroom. It is best suited to buyers comfortable with an always-ready smart display and wanting control over when those features are used.
Q: Will Echo Show 8 work with both iPhone and Android phones?
A: Yes. Echo Show 8 is compatible with both iOS and Android devices, and it also supports Bluetooth for flexible pairing. The overall experience still depends on the apps and services you already use with Alexa at home.
Q: Is Wi-Fi 6E required to use the Echo Show 8?
A: No. Echo Show 8 supports Wi-Fi 6E, but that feature mainly benefits homes with a compatible newer router. The key buying point is stronger wireless support for streaming and smart home use, not a requirement to replace your network.
Q: Can it trigger routines from motion or room temperature changes?
A: Yes. Echo Show 8 has ultrasound motion detection and temperature sensing, so it can support Alexa routines that react to presence or room conditions. Those automations still depend on compatible devices and the routine setup chosen.
