Echo Show 10 Review: A smart display that follows you around

- Advertisement -

I’ve been using the Echo Show 10 for a few weeks now and I’m impressed by it. It’s like having a personal assistant that follows me around the house. The screen is bright and clear, and it always faces me no matter where I go. I love being able to make video calls, watch shows, listen to podcasts, and follow recipes with just my voice. The sound quality is amazing too, and the camera automatically adjusts to keep me in the frame.

The Echo Show 10 is also a great smart home hub. I can control all my compatible devices with Alexa, and I can see what’s going on in my home when I’m away. It’s very convenient and easy to set up. I also like how I can use Amazon Photos to display my favorite pictures on the screen. It makes the device more personal and fun.

The only thing I wish was better is privacy. Even though there are options to turn off the microphone, camera, and motion, I still feel a bit uneasy having a device that can see and hear me all the time. I hope Amazon will improve its privacy policies and practices in the future. Overall, I think the Echo Show 10 is a great device for anyone who wants to do more with Alexa. It’s versatile, powerful, and entertaining.
