Overview



Better inside and out
Echo Show 8 has better sound with room-filling spatial audio, better calling with a centred auto-framing camera and better smart home integration with a built-in smart home hub. All on an 8? HD touchscreen.

Alexa makes life easier
Play your favourites on repeat, call hands free, scroll through old photos and get updates on your home. All you have to do is say the word.

Bold sound, better binge watching
Spatial audio fills your space with sound while room-adaption technology automatically analyses the acoustics of your room, fine-tuning playback for optimal sound. Hear every moment from your favourite series and music—the sound stays rich no matter what you’re listening to.

Connect with loved ones faster than ever
Video call with a centred, auto-framing 13 MP 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.

The smart home compatible with more
Pair and control devices compatible with Zigbee, Matter and Thread without needing a separate hub. Manage cameras, lights and more using the touchscreen or your voice. Schedule Routines or start them with your movement.

Relive your best moments again and again
Use Amazon Photos to turn your Home screen into a digital frame with Alexa. Enjoy your favourite moments and photos shared by friends and family as a slideshow or rotating with other Home screen content. Pictures will look great in any light, thanks to adaptive colour.

Alexa for children and family
Alexa can help children learn and grow—while having fun along the way. With free parental controls from Amazon Kids, Alexa will automatically give child-friendly responses, filter explicit songs and block shopping. Children’s privacy is important to us. Discover how children can use Alexa.
