Amazon Echo Show 8 (3rd Gen) Smart Speaker with 8" Screen & Alexa Voice Recognition & Control

The Echo Show 8 combines the smart convenience of the Alexa voice assistant with rich room-filling sound and an 8” HD screen so it can also show you things. So you can set alarms and timers, display your favourite photos, check the news and weather and get info. And you can stream music from your favourite streaming service, and, with Amazon Music, you can see on-screen lyrics. And it’s all hands-free. The 3rd Gen Echo Show 8 has been upgraded with room-filling spatial audio, a centred auto-framing camera and a built-in smart home hub.

Connect with others
Video call with a centred, auto-framing 13MP camera and noise-reduction technology. The Top Connections widget keeps your home devices and contacts in view, so you can quickly communicate with friends and family who have the Alexa app or an Echo device with a screen. Call with a tap, or use Live View to check on your home when away.

Spatial audio
Spatial audio fills your space with sound while room-adaption technology automatically analyses the acoustics of the room, fine-tuning playback for optimal sound.

Sound and vision
It’s easy to catch up on today’s news or sports highlights. You can watch TV series and films on subscription services like Prime Video and Netflix, or music videos, on the Echo Show 8’s high definition screen. Use your voice to request a song, artist, or genre through streaming services like Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and more (subscriptions may apply).

Built-in smart home hub
Pair and control devices compatible with Zigbee, Matter and Thread without needing a separate hub. You can manage cameras, lights and more using the touchscreen or your voice. And schedule routines or start them with your movement.

Privacy built-in
It’s built with multiple layers of privacy protection. You can turn off the mics and camera with the press of a button, or slide the built-in cover to easily close the camera, and you have control over voice recordings and can view, hear or delete them whenever you like.

Alexa Skills
Access Alexa’s tens of thousands of skills by simply asking. You can set timers, add items to lists, and create calendar events and reminders to keep you on schedule. You can also check the news, weather or traffic. Ask for sports scores, film screening times or information. All with just your voice. With a growing number of skills, Alexa is always getting smarter. Skills are like apps and help you do more, such as play relaxing sounds or test your music knowledge. Just say, “Alexa, what are your top skills?”
