Check out all the new Amazon Echo Device available for preorder as of May 13:
New Echo Show devices are now available for preorder.
You’ll find an updated Echo Show 5, Echo Show 8 and a never-before-seen Echo Show 5 Kids in this fresh lineup. The second generation Echo Show 5 and Echo Show 8 will focus on making your video calls clearer, smoother, and more intuitive, and the Echo Show 5 Kids gives parents a slew of controls over their child’s usage.
We’ll probably see discounts on older Echo Shows soon (especially with Amazon Prime Day approaching). But if you want to be on the cutting edge of smart home hub technology, place your preorder for one of these updated Echo Shows now. It’ll be delivered to you by June 9.
The new Echo Show 8 got a much needed refresh that’s perfect for folks who WFH. The updated 13-megapixel camera — the same one featured in the Echo Show 10 — uses auto-framing to keep you centered during your calls. This feature emulates the rotating screen introduced in the Echo Show 10, but without the motorized camera swiveling. This version also comes with an updated MediaTek MT 8183 processor for faster performance, and a built-in camera shutter to protect your privacy.
Ideal for small nightstands or cramped counters, the compact Echo Show 5 Gen 2’s new two-megapixel camera means higher quality video calls — so connecting with friends and family is easy. You’ll also get Alexa capabilities and tons of smart home control features to manage your day at a glance. While this model doesn’t come with the auto-framing feature, it is priced $5 lower than the previous version of the Echo Show 5, making it a solid deal.
Extend the smart home into your child’s room with this designed-for-kids Echo Show 5. Customizable parental controls let you decide what the limits of usage are. Set bedtimes, video limits, filter out certain content, set approved contacts, and review all activity. It also comes with access to a free year of Amazon Kids+, which is loaded with over 15,000 videos, tons of audiobooks, games, and music stations, curated specifically for young ones.
