Echo Show 8 (3rd Generation) - Unboxing & First Impressions

The Echo Show 8 has been redesigned for 2023 - is it improved enough to warrant an upgrade over a 1st or 2nd gen? Well this model has a new design, much improved speakers with spatial audio, a faster processor and improved camera. I think it is a big improvement, but it is a bit on the pricey side - unless you trade in a device, which makes it a bit more reasonable.

The white version is better because when you have the camera cover closed the white background blends in!👍

This is my 2nd Echo show 8 3 gen because my first one was on my nightstand. Now I was using it for listening to music at night and accidentally it was knocked off cracking the plastic front also completely messing it up so my fault. I thought about buying another brand until Amazon put it on sale and I bought another Echo. The odd thing is it looks like the last one although it doesn’t work the same. I’m only have been able to play Amazon music app, then I have the volume set for night at low until when I’m sound asleep it will say 1:15 78 degrees on it’s own. It just seems like this was sent back because of issues and sent to me. I will mess with it although so far I’m not happy with this Echo.

Sidewalk is only for the US, it doesn't appear on the uk set up.👍

Is there a Brazilian Portuguese language?
