Overview
This Cloud Blue Echo Show 5 is Amazon's newest version of the 5.5 inch smart display, built around Alexa+ with a redesigned speaker Amazon says delivers twice the bass and clearer vocals than before.
The color aside, the headline change on this newest Echo Show 5 is audio: Amazon specifically calls out deeper bass and clearer vocals from the redesigned speaker. It keeps the same 5.5 inch screen, built-in 2MP camera with a physical shutter, and photo slideshow features as the rest of the Show 5 line, now in the Cloud Blue finish.
- Cloud Blue 5.5 inch smart display for Alexa+
- Redesigned speaker with deeper bass and clearer vocals
- Built-in 2MP camera with a physical shutter
- Recycled polyester fabric and recycled aluminum construction
Who it's for
Fits buyers who want a small always-on Alexa+ screen for music, video calls, and smart home control, and who prefer the Cloud Blue color over white. It is not sized for anyone wanting a larger screen for video or browsing.
Pros and cons
- Refreshed speaker adds deeper bass and clearer vocals
- Video calling and Drop In built into the screen
- Doubles as a rotating photo slideshow when idle
- Sustainable build uses recycled polyester and aluminum
- Same compact 5.5 inch screen as prior models
- Requires an Alexa account and steady WiFi
- Works best with other Alexa-compatible smart devices
Performance notes
Streaming music, podcasts, and shows runs through the redesigned speaker, which Amazon positions as the main upgrade on this newest model. The 2MP camera handles video calls and Drop In behind a physical shutter and a mic and camera off button, and the screen switches to a photo slideshow when idle, drawing on Prime's unlimited cloud photo storage.
