Amazon Echo Show 5 gen3

Amazon's device goes beyond ordinary speakers, as it combines the functions of several gadgets: a smart speaker, a tablet, a security camera and a digital photo frame. This is all thanks to the fact that the model not only transmits sound, but also transmits images to the big screen. The speaker is equipped with a 5.5-inch touch screen on which you can view news and weather, launch clips and shows.

When not in use, the screen can act as a digital photo frame, displaying photos from your personal archive uploaded to the cloud. In addition, the equipment includes a 2-megapixel camera, which can be used in various ways. Firstly, it helps to conduct video conferences and make video calls. Secondly, thanks to the Amazon Echo Show 5 gen3 camera, it can act as a security camera, allowing users to remotely monitor what is happening in the home - for example, monitoring children and pets.

To maintain privacy, you can close the camera with a curtain and turn off both the camera and microphones completely. For the immediate duties of the speaker, there is one 1.7-inch speaker. According to the manufacturer, the model has improved sound quality, clearer vocals and deeper bass. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are provided for wireless connections, which make it possible to listen to music from a smartphone or launch playlists from streaming services.

But the main advantage of the device is its support for the Amazon Alexa virtual assistant. It understands and executes voice commands, helps control playback, accept and reject calls, and also acts as a control center for smart home equipment: lighting, smart sockets, thermostats, etc. The speaker also shows the current time and, if necessary, acts as an alarm clock. Moreover, all this is in a compact case measuring 147x82x91 mm. The speaker weighs less than 500 g and does not take up much space.
