The Echo Show 8 has a vibrant 8-inch HD screen with an adaptive color display; a powerful, 13-megapixel camera with a built-in camera cover; an octa-core processor; and dual stereo speakers for clear, balanced sound. It also allows you to make video calls via Alexa and turn your home screen into a digital gallery via Amazon Photos.

With dual stereo speakers and an HD display, Echo Show 8 delivers an immersive entertainment experience. Simply ask Alexa to browse shows or films from streaming services like Prime Video and Netflix or play your favorite music from services like Spotify. Alexa can show you playlist or station recommendations based on the song playing, making it easier to discover your next favorite artist or song. 

Manage your smart home by controlling compatible devices like light bulbs, plugs, and camera using the interactive display or your voice. You can also monitor your home anytime using the Echo Show 8 from the Alexa app or other Echo Show devices.

With a new range of more proactive features, Alexa can save you time and energy with Routine. Turn on the lights or check the weather with this feature to start your day. It also lets you automatically power off compatible devices or recognize certain sounds to automate a series of actions. For example, you can create a Routine that gradually turns on your bedroom light when Alexa detects the sound of your baby crying.
