With an HD 8in touch display, the Echo Show 8 fits neatly between the 10in 2nd-gen Echo Show and 5.5in Echo Show 5.
It also borrows features from each of those, with the powerful audio setup of the larger Echo Show, and the physical camera shutter and slimmer form factor of the Show 5.
Like those two devices, this is essentially a standard Echo smart speaker but with a display packed in, useful for showing you the weather or your commute, displaying album art for music, or laying out recipes that you can follow along with.
