With a Price This Low, It’s No Surprise That...

If you have not fallen prey to an Alexa-fitted speaker yet, even though hundreds of millions of people worldwide have done so, then think about the Amazon Echo Show 5. The product is a notch over carrying a simple Echo Dot or Echo Spot as it comes with a touchscreen screen. Now available for $69 down from $89 during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, this is a must-have opportunity to experience why so many love incorporating Alexa into their daily lives.

Visual Experience, Alexa-enabled

The Echo Show 5 is the perfect solution for anyone who desires to combine the functionality of Alexa with a visual experience. Although the Echo Dot or Spot can only handle voice interaction or the screen is smaller, the Echo Show 5 provides a superior experience with a 5.5-inch display and built-in camera. You can use the camera for video calls, monitor your security camera feed or even present your favorite photos. The touchscreen also allows you to control smart home appliances or watch movies.

This latest iteration of the Echo Show 5 (remember, there’s also a most premium Echo Show 8 which is almost double the price) features several improvements over its predecessors. It is preloaded with a new AZ2 Neural Edge processor that enhances voice recognition and machine learning which makes Alexa even more responsive and intuitive. It also provides better audio quality through a larger 1.75-inch driver that delivers more sound clarity and twice the amount of bass. It won’t compete with full-size speakers in range or depth, but it’s great for casual light music listening.

The Echo Show seamlessly integrates into any household setting: Its slender dimensions and round body are perfectly suited to residing on bedside tables, kitchen counters, or office desks. The flush-front screen adds a touch of modernity without compromising on actual functionality. The users can utilize the touchscreen to view recipes, control smart home devices, view security cameras, stream entertainment apps like Prime Video and Hulu, or video call. The built-in 2MP camera, however, is not unique compared to previous models and may be disappointing for those seeking high-quality video calling experiences.

The sale time is particularly suited for those who wish to redecorate their homes for spring or acquire new technology gadgets without needing to wait months for the next big discount window (Prime Day in July, Black Friday in November). As today marks the final day of Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, there’s no better moment to take advantage of this offer.
