Abstract: Well before any of its competitors put out a similar device, Amazon introduced the Echo Show in mid-2017, incorporating the sound and intelligence of Alexa with visuals to accompany voice responses.Some of the lessons learned from the first Echo Show are...
Feature-rich touch-screen interface, Friendly design with big, bright screen, Powerful audio, Web browser
Heavily sculpted sound emphasizes extremes and downplays midrange, Screen only supports 720p video
The 2018 model of the Amazon Alexa-powered Echo Show smart display is a major upgrade over the original, with a larger, more functional touch screen and a much more powerful speaker system...
Excellent audio with bass, Convenient smart-home hub, Two-way doorbell and camera audio
Clunky browsing experience, Nasty screen glare

Much improved sound quality, Bigger screen is much nicer to look at, Design is more pleasing to the eye, Software is more capable and easier to use

Improved streamlined design Outstanding sound quality, Supports NBC and Hulu (including Hulu Live), Built-in browser lets you watch YouTube, Step-by-step recipes with video instructions
Display quality is only so-so, Isn't fully compatible with Nest Hello video doorbell, Not compatible with YouTube TV
Amazon's latest Echo Show is a huge upgrade over the original. It has a more modern design, fantastic audio quality, comes with two built-in browsers and features step-by-step recipes; some even have video tutorials. It now has more robust entertainment o...
The second generation of the Echo Show brings a better and bigger display, fuller sound and YouTube via Firefox or Amazon Silk browsers
There still aren't a lot of useful or entertaining animations in common Alexa interactions
If you like the idea of a smart display for cooking, calling or watching videos, the newest Echo Show is a great option. But don't expect any extras...
