This latest Echo device can be summed up in one word – magical!
I have owned the last two Generation Echo Shows. The Echo Show 1 & Echo Show Gen 2. The Echo Show 10 solves all the issues that the first two devices had, and adds even more features jam packed into one great device.Now before I get into the meat and potatoes â let me tell you about the truly magical experience I have had with this device. It arrived in a box almost double the size of the previous model â and this device is BIG! The screen is huge! The speaker is also apparently much more powerful than the last generation â and I can tell, that is most definitely the case.But the true magic comes when you power on and set up the Echo. The Amazon team really did wonders creating this device. Both the camera and the AI in this thing are crazy good. Assuming you have motion enabled, as soon as you say the wake word, i.e., âAlexaâ the device honed in on my direction, rotated towards me, and began listening.If you walk around the room, this device follows you. You canât understand how cool this is until you try it out. I would upload a video, but Iâm sure you can look it up on YouTube, and there will likely be hundreds of reviews showcasing it here.Thereâs something about the tracking technology that Amazon has gotten just right. I called up my Grandma who has my old first gen echo show, and she didnât even realize we were conversing as I was walking around my room. She thought I was just stationary the whole time. When I pointed it out and showed to her, her jaw dropped.The way the camera zooms in on you, and the range of video it can show is phenomenal. I can jump onto my bed (my echo is on my nightstand) and the echo will zoom in and focus on me. When I go off the side of my bed, it follows zooming out, and can follow my body all the way as I walk back across the room towards the device.It all feels so natural. The only thing that is missing would be if the Echo device itself moved! You can now have a conversation with someone when moving around your environment, without having to remain stationary.In a kitchen, a home gym, or anywhere youâd want to talk with someone actively, this device would be really extraordinary to play with, especially during covid times.I use my device in my room as an Alarm clock â so previously, my camera would be staring across the room as to not let me look at the screen if needed (for time/alarms, etc). Now, with the camera cover, I feel much more comfortable covering the camera and rotating the device to look towards me at night.Now, take these into consideration as you decide if you want to purchase:First, if you want to get the latest and greatest Echo device, the purchase is a no brainer. I am an Amazon loyalist, and can say that even from first impressions, this device blows all other Amazon devices Iâve owned away.Second, if youâre a user who doesnât mind the camera being uncovered, then youâll have no problem with this device. Youâll love it. The motion features will be left on 16/7 for me. I wouldnât be comfortable allowing having the camera on while Iâm sleeping (and staring at me), but for a public area in your home â who cares? I wouldnât mind, Iâd leave it on all day â it following you around is magical.Third, if you fall into the second issue above, you CAN use the camera cover to disable motion. If you donât mind sliding the cover open and closed every morning/night, this could work for a nightstand alarm clock, and the hassle/inconvenience would be worth it.Pros:- Motion is magical- Camera is high definition- Sound is great. Music sounds lively. Lyrics on screen that follow you around the room- Adaptive screen dimming still works even when camera/motion is blocked/disabled- You can manually rotate the device when motion is off i.e. Iâm going to bed, to point it towards me. I donât know if thatâs safe for the motor â Iâll ask Amazon!Cons:- If your room doesnât have a full range of motion, the Echo might get confused when following you around. Since it is on my nightstand, the echo really only needs to turn about 90° to see in front if itself, and when I go to the left of my room. If I go to exit my room, it might start losing tracking, which could probably fixed in a future OS update (to halt moving at a specific point, which it already does).Bottom Line: I 100% recommend this as an upgrade to an old device or a new device for any potential Echo owners. If you donât feel comfortable with the motion controls, turn them off, but you wonât get the full package and what I think is the biggest selling point of this device. Put this in a public room and try it out â you wonât regret it.EDIT: After seeing more reviews a few points to mention:1. White power cord. Who cares? You dock a star for this? Donât listen to normies giving poor reviews who think the color of a power cord which is draped out of sight will have any effect on how the device improves over itâs predecessor2. Complaints over resolution: if youâre not buying this thing to watch full-fledged movies on, itâs fine. You wonât notice.3. Complaints over tracking: it wonât track you with the camera in the dark. A future models can probably have an infrared light added (similar to FaceID) to fix that problem.4. I saw someone complaining about Airplay and multiroom audio. Echo devices support multiroom audio through Amazonâs Ecosystem â not bluetooth. It has never supported that. Why would you expect this to change without notice?Donât listen to the haters. People reviewing are acting as if this device isnât 5x better than the last generation of the Show. Motion is a stellar addition that would bring moving smart devices into the mainstream. No one here knows what athe Facebook Portal is, because there was never a solid backing behind the product line. Echos are in homes across America, and Iâm sure that this will lead to better smart devices from Amazon in the future.For reference, I have owned an: Echo Show 1, Echo Show 2, Echo Dot, and have coded ~5 Alexa Skills. I know these devices. This gen is great. Give it 1 month and these will be 5/5. These reviews all read so fake. Who purchases a device and returns it same-day due to a different colored power cord? Who returns a device that doesnât do something they expected when it was never said the device did it?Low-information consumers and people with too high expectations… thereâs a reason why itâs called PRE-ORDERING, because you KNOW you are going to like it and/or take what you get. No one forced you to buy a day 1 device.TL;DR: Donât listen to bad reviews. Buy this if youâre in the market.

New Rotating Show 10, Better Camera, Great for Video Calls
The new Echo Show 10 (3rd Gen) is a big improvement over the previous 2nd Gen version. The Show 10 is now attached to a swivel base that lets the Show 10 constantly rotate to face you as you move around the room. Other changes include: a new speaker configuration, MUCH better camera, better processor, and Amazon Sidewalk support. Here are my thoughts so far:THE GOOD:-SETUP â Setup was super easy. The Show came configured to my account, I didn’t have to log in or even enter wifi passwords. It connected, downloaded some updates, and then walked me through customizing the range of motion.-MOTION- This is the most obvious new improvement. The Show 10 will now track your movement and turn to face you as you move around the room. The Show seems to have very good facial tracking, and it will rotate on its horizontal axis to follow you (you can also manually tilt the screen up and down to your desired vertical position.) We tested this while playing movies and while viewing our remote cameras, and it worked perfectly. We also tested with multiple people in the room; and the Show seems to lock onto one face and moves to follow that face, until it can’t see that face anymore and will move to another face. Or if someone uses the Wake Word âAlexa,â it will turn toward where that voice was coming from. This also works for video calls, though we noticed that on video calls the Show will rotate to try to keep ALL of our faces in view. Sometimes this might mean it faces in between two people so that the camera can see both of us, and then automatically zooms the camera in or out to adjust. Which brings me to the next big improvement:-13MP CAMERA â We were very impressed with the quality of the new camera, and with the tracking technology it uses. Not only are images crisp and detailed on video calls, but the camera will actually automatically zoom in and out to adjust to the people in the shot. For example I can back up from my kitchen into the living room, and the camera will zoom in and follow me. When you combine this with the movement and facial tracking, it is almost like having your own camera man follow you around the room on your call. The family members we called said they could see so much more detail. There is also now a physical shutter that you can close to cover the camera if you want to.-SPEAKERS â The old 2nd Gen Show 10 had dual 2â neodymium drivers, but this new 3rd Gen Show 10 has two 1â tweeters and a 3â woofer. I can definitely tell the difference, although I really don’t use the Show for listening to music very often. In testing out a few songs, I noticed that the new 3rd Gen seems louder at max volume, and less muffled. Definitely an improvement, though maybe not quite on the level of the Echo Studio.-PROCESSOR â The new Show 10 has both an upgraded main processor, and also a second Amazon AZ1 processor. This should result in slightly faster repose times, and better future performance; although I really haven’t been able to tell much of a difference so far. AZ1 is supposed to be faster and more efficient, and allow voice commands to be processed locally instead of having to go to the cloud; so we’ll see if this is noticeable in the future.-ZIGBEE/SIDEWALK â The previous version included a Zigbee hub, but this version also includes Amazon Sidewalk compatibility. Sidewalk is a long range connection technology that Amazon plans to use for devices that will be able to reach much further; (the initial announcement estimated up to half a mile). This technology isn’t really being used yet, but it is nice to know this future tech is built in.THE BAD:-WHITE POWER CORD â Yes, for some reason that same white power cord that ships with the Echo 4th Gen is also included for this Show 10. No matter what color Show you get (I got black), you still get a white power cord. I’m a little surprised that they went with this decision again, but it really doesn’t bother me much at all. Just thought I’d mention it in case that matters to you.-LARGE FOOTPRINT â Since the device rotates, you really have to be careful about where you put it. The Show 10 comes with a footprint guide, that suggests that you make sure you have enough space around the device to avoid the screen knocking over a glass of water, for example. This also wasn’t a big deal for me, but keep in mind you will probably need more space than the previous version. The specs recommend a 10â by 15â space, but I think you could get away with less.*Note â You can disable the movement by saying âAlexa disable Motion,â or by turning it off in the Alexa app on your phone. Also, when you first setup your Show, there is a slider bar that let’s you choose how far the screen should rotate in each direction. It seems to go almost 360 degrees maximum, but you can limit the radius so it turns much less. You can also change this in the ‘Motion’ menu under Settings.Overall, I am VERY pleased with this new Show 10. The camera clarity is great, and the face tracking technology is so impressive; there’s just nothing else like it for video calls to our family. This is a huge upgrade!
