Amazon launches Echo Show 5 for $90

Prasad, 29 May 2019

Amazon has launched the Echo Show 5, a smaller version of the Echo Show at a much lower price.

The Echo Shot 5 has a 5.5-inch, 960x480 resolution display. The widescreen aspect ratio is ideal for watching Amazon Prime Video content, as well as content from other service providers. On the back is a single 4W speaker.

The Echo Show 5 also has a 1MP camera on the front for video calling other Amazon Echo users. The camera has a shutter that physically blocks the camera when it's not in use.

Apart from that, it's exactly the same as any other Amazon Echo device. You can use voice to access your services as well as smart home devices around your house. There is no smart hub in this model, so you will need a separate hub for all the smart home devices.

The Echo Show 5 is priced at $89.99 and available in two colors, Charcoal and Sandstone.
