PS - I'm aware no pause is needed between the wake word and command, but she still takes time to compute that request before you can ask a second request, and even then, sometimes you can reel of an entire request immediately after saying a wake word, but didnt realise that she didn't even hear the wake word in the first place. 😂 #mostannoyingthings
I like the presence setting. Like when your hubby wakes up at 3am, and walks into the kitchen, it will detect him and the program will remember the schedule we've set, and it automatically turns on the kitchen lights and plays gospel music for him to him started for the day.
Aside from my personal dim view of this item. You are by far the best tech channel in the UK. The whole rustic, witty feel of the channel is blighty gold!
Cheers for the kind words Kris... and I've seen your other comment too, and I agree, but don't you think my theory at least lends an explanation to why they've done it?
After 8min i noticed that beautiful bottle in the middle of your shelf and i was like :"yep, this gentleman knows what is a good Scotch" Lagavulin, my all time favourite, i often refer to it as the smokey bastard☺
Amazon has this weird notion, that they just don't want us to have it all. We are not getting the Echo Dot Kids Edition, we don't get the parental control panel, we don't get the Echo Glow, we don't get the echo show wall clock, Disney Edition. They even don't have the normal Echo Wall Clock in stock in the UK store anymore. They also deprive us of a stack of Echo Flex modules, like the combined nightlight/motion sensor and the clock, that's available in the US. I originally thought, it might be due to lack of CE certification, but some of the stuff can't even be explained with that.
@@StusReviewsUK i use a service in the US called amforward to forward parcel from there. The only issue is, if the glasses or ring depend on an US account, like the Echo Glow Light does. That would be a bummer. The Echo Dot Kids Edition, that we got for our kids room, worked just fine as normal dots .... just having no access to the parental portal features.
Looks a bit like a terminal I'd expect to see in one of those places we used to have, called high street banks. In years gone by they'd be dotted around for customers to have a play around with, chances are now this is going to sitting where Maureen used to sit and its beady eye will follow you around the branch. All you wanted to do was to order a new cash card and get a handful of coin bags for your whiskey bottle full of change but you've now been 'Bezoed' and your personal details uploaded to an EC2 instance based just inside the Arctic Circle. Welcome to the future.
I just got mine in the mail about two-three days ago… I absolutely LOVE this device!!!!!! I am absolutely FASCINATED with modern technology… I would definitely recommend this device for anyone at all
An excellent review! Yes, initially the wake word was a novelty for me, since this is my first Alexa device. However, after a while, saying Alexa becomes tedious. I too would have liked the camera to have been placed in the centre, and I agree with all your other comments too. On the whole, however, I'm very pleased with the Echo Show.
Nice review, Stu. I won't get one for the same reasons, the main one being nowhere to put it. Also, I have Google screens everywhere. BTW, do you know Paul H.?
I like the idea but I certainly won't be getting one. My echo sits in the hall and can hear its wake word from almost anywhere in the house due to its paper thin walls. I suspect most UK homes don't have a island worktop in their kitchen and this is where I see this working well. In America calling mom while doing all the chores around the worktop (and living the "America dream") it'll be amazing. IN the UK where we tend to move about more and move to different rooms the "follow me" functionality will just end causing the screen tosmacking the wall. Now if it came in a fully working drone... That I WOULD buy! Great review!
My first show 10 didn't need a wake word, it just used to do its own thing....... any time of day or night. When I checked to see if I'd accidentally used the A word, nil, nothing, nada....... So it went packing back to Amazon. The replacement however is much more user friendly. I agree with you on the 'wake word', problem would be, how to enable it to follow you constantly and then recognise that you are actually looking at it... that would be some serious sci-fi stuff. I agree with what you say about the aesthetics though, it's about right for the price, and that means..... Echo show .. 11... 12...13....14....15 and so on.
Definitely a Marmite item and I'm on the 'don't like' side of the fence. I think it looks ugly. Personally, I think it would look much more appealing with the screen on top of the speaker which would then pivot on its own axis and, as you said Stu, what's with that bezel? I would like it to look like the iMac screens and have it with no bezel at all!
This could spell not just the end of the 'Alexa' wake word, but with face recognition it could allow one device to manage ToDo Lists, Calendars, Alarms, Reminders, etc for all members of your household. This would make it simple for private personal information to be kept private and for users to place Amazon orders using their own recognised account. Parental control and privacy would be based on facial and/or voice recognition and passwords no longer required. Your Alexa personal assistant could get to know you better and adapt its behaviour accordingly.
You will probably always need a wake word. 1) if you have more than 1 echo device (I have a Show in the bedroom and the living room, and a Studio in the living room); 2) if you have more than one brand of device: 3) if you want to do different things on different device (example: play music on my Echo Studio while following a recipe on an Echo Show in the kitchen)
Come back here when you’re wrong 😉. I mean there’s already software that stops others listening when one is active… not too hard to implement across the system if ‘awareness/attention Is detected, don’t activate in other rooms’. Brand of device is surely irrelevant? And the last point is a rehash of your original point.
Great review. My only comment would be if the speaker did not have a wake word, how would it know that I was talking to it. Even the television would be having it do stuff. It's bad enough watching video content that use the wake word.
I got one from a friend , he got it stolen. I used it one day, set up everything after that the device can’t recognize the account. Any idea what is gonna happen?
If you get a second Amazon device - when you say Alexa how do you get only one of them to respond? For example having one device upstairs and one downstairs
I used Alexa Guard for a few weeks last year and had to disable it. Unfortunately UK homes tend to be build closer together than US ones and I think the number of false activations, due to neighbouring properties, may be the reason that Amazon has removed this from the UK / European market.
Hi Stu. It is really strange that Alexa guard is still not available in the UK. It’s been available in South Africa since they launched it. I’ve been using it for as long as probably 3 years or so.
Has it! That does seem odd. I’d imagine it has something to do with GDPR and regulations. I know a few 3rd party security camera software don’t do things like store recordings in the cloud because of regulations. (Reolink).
I think you are on to something. The wake word does tend to annoy me sometimes and to just look at her and ask for what you want would be great. Also a great vid Stu keep up the great work look forward to your vids.👍
Mmm I really want to like it but I can't. I have the same problem you have: a rustic house so it won't look good anywhere. On the other side, I do like the Google Nest Hub Max much more. It doesn't look too futuristic and it looks good at a corner in the kitchen, with a very wide view of it: no movement needed actually.
I'm thinking about getting one to replace the Echo 2nd gen and Fire HD 8 Plus with wireless charging dock due to my cats. They like to push them off my counter top. I will move the 8 plus with the wireless dock to my bedroom. Not sure what to do with the old Echo. I want the premium sound and a heavier and more durable smart speaker. My old echo has been having problems hearing my voice commands lately. I think I've got it! I'll move the Chromebook to the counter and set the Echo Show 10 3rd Gen on the dining room table. It's round an black and I've drilled a hole in the center for chargers and AC adapters.
I bought this for drop ins but with this newest version you have to get an OTP code to verify your number...that they have..I have straight talk can't get those & they can't help me get past this challenge. Some phone providers don't offer an option to get the code to verify your number even though they have it...😵😪
Fascinating... Although you may think £240 is a fair price, in Australia it's $400! Very overpriced, especially without Alexa Guard and the care feature to keep track of family members.
@@StusReviewsUK Yes I'm aware of that and I agree with the exchange rate it's a bit cheaper, but exchange rates don't take into account that it's still 400 of a currency. I always relate currency back to the price of a can of coke. When I lived in England a can cost 50p (not sure how much they cost now) and in Australia they cost $1.50 (they're now $2.50, so I assume they're over £1 now...) With the exchange rate at the time they were "equal". But one is still 3 times the price of the other. Also exchange rates don't factor in costs of living and wages. Last time I was in England, it was drastically cheaper in London than here in Melbourne.
Think it looks pretty cool, though a tad like the old iMac, it’s just that screen, the bezels are far too big at a time everyone else is shrinking theirs plus the top bezel being bigger than the bottom bezel is unnecessarily annoying. As it is all said and done a screen based echo, think they’ve missed a trick. The motor would not be enough for me to upgrade.
Whether we see it in this iteration or not, I’m not sure, but I definitely think Amazon will be using the data learned from this device to implement something like what I suggested in future devices!
Great video. Your point on the annoyance of the wake word is so true. The only problem is I hadn't realised how much of pain it was till you've highlighted it lol. I'd drop £300 for a Pro version.
I do, mostly to ensure that she’s heard me say the wake word. I hate it when I reel off a command and she hasn’t heard my say ‘alexa’, but I do appreciate you can ask the command with the wake word (hasn’t always been that way).
Thanks for this, very interesting, but sound boomer than usual, I feel, perhaps balance as very sibilant and brassy at the same time. Perhaps it was an echo joke?
I do think the end of the wake word should be a focus point, yes. If you talk to most home automators their focus are on automation i.e. not having to use voice commands. I certainly avoid doing voice commands, even for my clients. I rather teach them to do automations or rely on their daily routines to either time or trigger things they want to happen instead of using voice commands. I fully agree with your argument.
In my view there is literally NO viable use case whatsoever for the swivel function. Its utterly pointless. At very best the far fetched positive for a 360 waist View, security camera is laughable. This thing is a gigantic waste of money for what is essentially just a larger slightly better speaker with a pointless screen spinning around. Amazon just make an actually TV show range already. This is the first attempt at taking a central 360 position in a room and until we all sit around the tv instead of infront of it this thing just doesnt have a place in our homes at all
It reminds me of an iPad attached to a HomePod. It’s a bit like the Facebook Portal because the camera follows you. £240. Ouch! That’s expensive. The bezels need sorting. 🧐 It would really look at home on a kitchen island. I’d like it to have a male voice. If you’re bored of saying Alexa change the wake word. 😂 @ Hibbert at end.
Personally don't like it as you have to open a Web page to get bbciplayer and youtube (so pointless voice assistance) can't get britbox. Looks good and sounds good but I prefer the nest hub max at least I cam cast to it. If you like it then great for you but for the money it doesn't do enough as a media player for me in the uk
I did do some TikTok’s, but I don’t think there’s much pull for tech stuff there! More snippets from my product shots than a different review entirely!
Mine is a piece of junk that can't answer simple questions or hear my replies properly. The follow me capabilities ate a joke top. It gets confused constantly. It's garbage.
It looks like a lovechild of a HomePod and an iPad... if you’re concerned about your privacy you shouldn’t buy an Amazon product... and it’s not that cheap when you consider you pay with your data... sorry, not a big fan of ‘her’...
Yes this is a fair point 👍, but the point still stands about the wait time, that you have to wait for her to compute that request before asking a second (even if you have the listen for further requests option turned on)
You are so paranoid... good reviewer... but if you can't surrender a little privacy then you need to get out of high tech and back to flip phone and non smart TV!
PS - I'm aware no pause is needed between the wake word and command, but she still takes time to compute that request before you can ask a second request, and even then, sometimes you can reel of an entire request immediately after saying a wake word, but didnt realise that she didn't even hear the wake word in the first place. 😂 #mostannoyingthings

I think a saw right said fred at the end:)))) lol
I would assume [Bleep] Guard was removed in the UK due to privacy laws.
Great review. What I reckon will come next is this will become a docking station and you will be able to use the 10.1 screen as a portable tablet.

Sincere question, do people actually pause between saying the week we’re done the command? I have always just rattled it off all at once.
