Thanks for this video. Very helpful. Would love it, if you do an in-depth on the drop in call process. Do you need another Echo to be able to do video calls? or can you do it from Android/iPhones?
The routines are driving me crazy. It keeps turning the volume down in the middle of the night, and then I can’t hear my alarm in the morning. It’s playing some weird videos in the morning after I hit snooze. The clock gets really dim at night to the point I can’t see it. It’s frustrating I can’t make the clock bigger all the time. It does get bigger at night.
Didn’t have much luck with the 3rd Gen Show 8. The screen displayed “loading” and would not advance. I tried resetting, unplugging for 30 or 40 seconds. Nothing seemed to work. Too bad, I was looking forward to the upgrades on this unit. Back to my Gen 1.
I just bought the echo show 8 3rd gen and I love it, the sound that comes from it is amazing but my real purpose for buying it is for my new ring doorbell
When playing music in my 3rd gen echo show on Amazon Music, it does not show the Atmos icon on any song. Do you need to enable Atmos somewhere for it to play music in Atmos? Thanks!
Wondering if they fixed the bluetooth problem. I bought this to upgrade from my 1st generation but the bluetooth wouldn't connect to my various bluetooth speakers/earbuds. I sent it back.
Had mine since launch. Have noticed that photo frame worked fine and constantly cycled photos all day with rotation with local weather. Now it only cycles all photos once and the weather is never shown. Must say I could not figure out how to delete and add widgets and this video helped with that.
Sent both mine back! The spatial audio really affected my hearing! It sounded like the vocals were in a echoed room.ive now replaced them with the show 10 3rd gen.👍
Can you change the default position of the clock or is it still in the lower left corner? I have the Echo 8 2nd gen...My bed is kind of high and blocks the clock making it kind of useless as a clock. I would be able to see if the default can be changed to the top left or right.
Hell I'm still using the original tube tower echo that cost $175 bucks, but from what I can tell the sound from these new ones isn't any better then my old monster
Maybe I missed it but what are you using most around the house these days? Google or Amazon? I'm still back and forth debating on switching to Alexa, but I got my Nest Hello's. I don't like how Ring doesn't record 24/7 and only when things happen which is likely to get missed.
I am about 80% Google around the house but in some areas I have Echos for Drop In and other features. I think it's time I make a detailed comparison of the two.
@@TechWithBrett Maybe they save a penny on production. I have a charcoal black echo speaker on a black lacquer cabinet, and the white cord looks like crap. I think they want you to purchase a black replacement on their website, right?😠
I can't remove it from the app on my phone or from the Show 8 itself. It gives me the option to edit it, but never to remove it. I've even edited out my name, but it still shows it as a profile.

What Echo Show features would you like to see more in depth?

I would like to know how to change the clock face
a comparison between the echo show 8 3rd gen vs the original google nest hub max.
we want to get a screen with calendar and time.
Is this it.
Or look for something else?
Tired of them putting bezels on this. We're in 2024. It's time to remove the bezel.
I have the 2nd Gen show 8 in my bedroom and just purchased the 3rd Gen show 8 to sit under my display in the living room.
Thanks for showing the Zigbee hub in action.
It's the first Echo Show 8 with the Zigbee Hub feature so I thought it'd be pretty helpful.
I like cam shutter feature, i trust it more.
Yeah I like how you can see it is covered.
Better than the old fashioned way, a post it note

My grandma won that today!
I wish they made this wireless. There's no one convenient place for it to stay around the house
I bought the Echo show 8 2nd gen on Black Friday for $54.99 with a blink mini included. I love it so far Great video as always sir

you know you can simply order a replacement for the broken gen 3?
@@CreamworksI did. Same issue.
@@mjcz5853 that's odd. how long did you wait on the loading screen?
@@Creamworks about 10 minutes
Sometimes … it’s human error 😂 or your WiFi

Thanks for showing how to remove widgets. I couldn't figure it out.
I think Echo 8 animations is too fast. I have yet to figure where setting is to slow it down a little. It's there I just can't locate it today.

Are you getting the Samsung galaxy Buds FE?

I still need to figure out the best way to get the home page to show what you want. I'll share once I have the results.
Thanks for the review Sr.!
Question, Does it has the ultrasound sensor the echo dot 4th gen comes with?
Sent both mine back! The spatial audio really affected my hearing! It sounded like the vocals were in a echoed room.ive now replaced them with the show 10 3rd gen.👍
Glad you found a solution. The Show 10 has some great sound.
Thanks for the very useful video! I was wondering if th echo show 8 3rd gen woul still be compatible with batteries meant for 1/2 gen?
It still pops up the ads all the time no matter what you set. I gave up on it.
nice information, It's handy to help me set it up....I'm still waiting for more arrivals to Australia. It seems to be sold out
What brand of contact sensor was used in your zig bee demo? Thanks, great review! Time to upgrade my echo show. 😊
It is from Aeotec (affiliate) amzn.to/3N7Dp2T
Thanks for the tips! My quick commands disappeared from the home screen. How do I get them back?

Great video! Mine is arriving today!

but from what I can tell the sound from these new ones isn't any better then my old monster
can you see multiple cameras on one screen? i noticed the 2nd gen mentioned you can but i don’t see it mentioned for this new one
Wow, I didn't even know that was a feature! Yes this feature will work. Just say, "show me my cameras."
which mobile handset are you using? I really liked that.
It is the Pixel Fold: ruclips.net/video/B58L-mw8Qy8/видео.htmlsi=x_sSMrqpqnlNbQbo

Nice upgrade from my 1st gen, but why the thoughtless decision to give you a white power cord with a black unit? Mine were.color-matched.
Yeah they have been doing that for awhile now and it is really odd.
@@TechWithBrett Maybe they save a penny on production. I have a charcoal black echo speaker on a black lacquer cabinet, and the white cord looks like crap. I think they want you to purchase a black replacement on their website, right?😠
I am sending my 1st Gen back but keeping the black cord that came with the 1st Gen. Hope they do not reject my return.
Equalizer capability on Echo 8.
In Australia ,there is no support,no phone contact,no assistance,you have to work it out all by yourself.
Try emailing if possible to USA or Wherever
Is it able to display the clock when it is idle?
Yes, the clock will almost always be on display.
When is this available?
Right now! But what country are you in?
@@TechWithBrett Canada.
Mine has 2 profiles of me also. The 2nd one is only my first name. I didn't put it in and I can't take it out.
Check under the family section in the app to see if you can remove one. I actually have the same problem and have no idea how to get rid of it.
I can't remove it from the app on my phone or from the Show 8 itself. It gives me the option to edit it, but never to remove it. I've even edited out my name, but it still shows it as a profile.
There is no support for this product. No phone numbers, no e-mail address. You are on your own.

Did you try contacting through the Amazon email address on the Amazon website?
The weather app is terrible on the alexa devices where i live. Google weather is more accurate.
