The Amazon Echo Show (2nd Gen) is Very Smart with some Superb Features

[@randyortan09]

*Absolutely love my **Newest.Technology** echo show. Love being able to listen to music and announce when dinner is done.Not to mention how well it works with all my other devices.*

[@johnweddel687]

I have the Echo Spot. My biggest complaint about the Spot and Show is there is NO way to toggle off that annoying "Things to Try" that is persistent. There is no need for that to be constantly disiplayed.

[@chrishieke1261]

Another big shortcoming is the lack of a headphone/3.5 audio line-out jack. I simply can't understand why they put those on the smaller versions, but not on this one. Cost wouldn't be an issue, engineering wouldn't be an issue. It would make the Show really the central hub for a whole Echo-environment, especially with its integrated ZigBee access point.

[@SkwrHdz]

I've had the Show 2nd Gen for a couple of months. Really quite happy with it but with one exception. How do you get rid of that extremely annoying Alexa suggestions to try something displayed at the bottom of the screen? Displaying the "Try: Alexa, blah blah blah." was acceptable for the first few days, perhaps even a week or two, but not after months; simply put, it's damn annoying! I've hunted both on the Show and in the Alexa iOS app but can find no way to disable it. Is it possible to get rid of the PitA "feature"? If so, how?

[@moorgogel]

same problem here

[@arthurmeeuwen9738]

If that really bothers you you must nothing else to do but sit there and stare at the screen all day long.

[@7777PEACEMAKER]

All of this different tech seems very redundant to me but great video thank you

[@peterfaucella4118]

the overall theme is connecting ordinary devices to the internet and allowing them to be controlled via smartphones or these new voice assistants (Siri, Alexa, Cortana, etc.) To control/manipulate/change/communicate with everything around you has limitless applications. Small sensors, fast computer chips, and Al technologies like Alexa and Siri will eventually be everywhere, including robots, and almost all ordinary objects. This is still only the beginning of the Internet and its applications. What a time to be alive!

[@leon2385]

Just got this for my wife and she loves it!

[@eyeonart6865]

On back it looks like there are other plug in do you know what they are for?

[@GemmaSl]

Please can you help me? I really want to buy this but I’m disabled and bedridden so can’t get to a store to test it - I need to know, the main reason I want to purchase it is for the idle clock face, ‘Stellar’ under ‘Classic’. Does this device the Echo Show 10, 2nd Gen have that clock face in the home and clock options when it’s idle?

[@mowens1972]

I just got my echo show and noticed when I swiped down from the top mine only has one line of commands where yours has two lines. I do not have the alarms or the option for lights being shown. Is this something you can set up?

[@josephg534]

Hello I have one, very happy with it. I have a question, how to change browser default from Firefox to Silk.......?

[@skycloud4802]

Few features I wondered about it. Does listening to Audible on it also bring up lyrics (or rather more accurately, speech to word on the screen)? How is displaying Kindle books like on the screen? Does it read those out too like on the Echo dot? Can you watch Freeview HD TV on it?

[@jonhawkins2374]

can anyone help me, I just want a device to show my preset picture. for example I say 'alexa show me Bahamas pigs' It will instantly show me a picture of it (if I can link my picture and call it Bahamas pigs etc). Then seconds later I ask for another picture and that will show instead etc. Would this work on echo show 5? and can I add as many pictures as I want?

You can change the accent, voice and language to GB English. The original and best.

[@grantfuller5011]

Hi, I have ordered this device. As it has a built in hub do you still need a separate hub to control your lights? I was thinking about the hive bulbs and plug sockets. Thanks for your review by the way 👍

[@dizzyrus1001]

Grant Fuller there is a hub built in, but certain plugs, bulbs still need there hubs for devices to work.i have the tradfri from IKEA, as these SEM to be the cheapest around. I have also a couple of Phillips hue bulbs that work without there hub, but with the built in Alexa hub. I've also purchased lights and plugs from Amazon that don't need a hub at all. All work great. Like I said IKEA system is the cheapest, just annoying you do need there hub, but at £25 it still works out cheaper as there bulbs start from £7 and there plugs are £9, add so definitely with the £25 if your buying a lot of bulbs and plugs. Xxx

[@grantfuller5011]

Hi, I received yesterday and all of my Hive products just pair up with ease. I love the Echo Show

[@dizzyrus1001]

Anyone know how to change the time display format, on an Echo Show 2nd gen, to 12 hour instead of 24?

[@BlindMelonLord]

Lenny F easy. Open up your settings menu. Go to wallpaper in Clock. Then scroll down until you see the words 24 hour clock. There should be a toggle switch to the right of those. Toggle until you see that it’s off. Problem solved.

Echo show 5 is extremely stupid and burns my finger . It has glitched such that Amazon C's aren't able to understand.. They told me your screen is broken. Use voice commands to play. If I say Alexa play jack Ryan, it plays the video.. If I browse to the Amazon video of jack Ryan and select the episode and click play.. it says error.. to see the video visit amazon.com and see your purchase options.. Amazon C's says my screen is broken lol.. When everything works.. even video on tubi etc. This stupid Android device doesn't even allow you to install apks.. -_-
