The newest Echo Show 5 version packages a big punch in a little package. This is a little, practical addition to your house which can fit almost anyplace but is especially at home on nightstands and indoor workplaces. But it's not as functional as the updated Echo Show 8.
New Features In This Version:
Higher quality camera:
The 1-megapixel camera of the first generation device has been replaced with a 2-megapixel camera, resulting in much better pictures and video calls.
New color choices:
In addition to the Charcoal and Sandstone color options, the new Echo Show 5 is now available in Deep Sea Blue, which is a stunning shade of blue that is sure to turn heads. In addition, the audio jack was removed in this upgraded version.
Kids Edition:

In addition to the regular Echo 5, the Echo 5 Kids edition is a 2nd generation Echo Show 5 that has a really interesting chameleon design, two years of access to Amazon Kids, and some beefed-up parental controls.
Security camera functionality:
These devices, as well as the forthcoming Echo Show 8, have the capability of acting as interior surveillance cameras. As long as you have a WiFi connection, you can simply access the camera view from the Alexa app to monitor what's going on at home. This makes it simple to quietly check in on the dogs, children, babysitters, or houseplants, among other things.
Motion-activated routines:
This model, as well as the simultaneously launched 2nd generation Echo Show 8, feature motion-activated routines, which eliminates the need for you to speak in order to get your routine started. When you get out of bed in the morning, you could program Alexa to start your coffee maker and turn on the lights, or when you go to bed, you could program Alexa to turn out all the smart lights in the home and turn on your coffee maker again.
Screen:
A 5.5-inch screen and a footprint of just 6 by 3 inches make the Echo Show 5 an excellent choice for your nightstand, thanks to its small size and slim design.
Some Security features:
Just like with any smart gadget, security measures are essential to ensure its proper operation. Amazon enables you to erase your voice recordings and turn off the camera shutter from your device's settings.
Alarms Facility:
Setting alarms is a snap with this iteration, and I tried many of them since alarm dependability is very important to me. When it comes to the alarms on any phone I've ever had, they've never been completely dependable. Sometimes they simply don't go off for no apparent reason. And, since I'm not always dependable, I may inadvertently set the alarm for the evening, or turn it off on some days without realizing it or forget to click "save" after inputting my alarm information.
Alexa, on the other hand, is different. It's as simple as saying, "Alexa, set my alarm for 6:00 a.m." and everything is taken care of.
You may check the weather, the news, and your calendar before getting out of bed so you can determine whether it's even worth getting out of bed or if you should simply roll over and sleep a little longer in the morning.
The ideal personal assistant for the home:
On my desk right now is an Amazon Echo Show 5 with a microphone. It's tiny enough that it doesn't become a distraction from my multi-monitor setup, and it's so convenient to have hands-free assistance there in front of me. Because I have young children, my "home office" is a corner of the living room where I can keep an eye on them while I'm working on my computer.
The ability to rapidly search up information while working using my voice is extremely convenient since it saves me from opening another page or grabbing my phone to do the task manually. Because of this, my experience is much more simplified, as I am able to grab what I need without having to interrupt what I am now doing.
