I recently purchased the Echo Show 15, and I am delighted to share my experience with this remarkable smart display. Here's my excellent review:
Impressive Display Quality:
The Echo Show 15 boasts a stunning Full HD 15.6" display that delivers crisp and vibrant visuals. Whether I'm streaming videos, browsing photos, or checking the weather forecast, the clarity and detail of the display never fail to impress. The colors are rich and true-to-life, enhancing the overall viewing experience.
Alexa Integration:
The integration of Alexa into the Echo Show 15 adds a new level of convenience and functionality to my home. With just my voice, I can ask Alexa to play music, set reminders, answer questions, control smart home devices, and much more. The hands-free operation allows me to multitask with ease, whether I'm cooking in the kitchen or relaxing in the living room.
Fire TV Built-in:
Having Fire TV built-in to the Echo Show 15 is a game-changer for my entertainment setup. I can easily access my favorite streaming services, such as Netflix, Prime Video, and Hulu, directly from the device. The intuitive interface and seamless navigation make it effortless to discover and enjoy a wide range of content.
Versatile Placement Options:
The Echo Show 15 offers versatile placement options, allowing me to mount it on the wall or place it on a tabletop using the included stand. This flexibility ensures that I can position the device wherever it is most convenient and visible in my home. The slim and sleek design of the display complements any decor scheme.
Remote Control Included:
I appreciate that the Echo Show 15 comes with a remote control for added convenience. While Alexa voice commands are convenient for many tasks, having a physical remote provides an alternative control option, especially for tasks that require more precision or privacy. The remote is easy to use and responsive, enhancing the overall user experience.
Overall Satisfaction:
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the Echo Show 15. Its impressive display quality, seamless Alexa integration, built-in Fire TV, versatile placement options, and included remote control make it a standout smart display that enhances both my productivity and entertainment at home.
Pros:
Stunning Full HD display with vibrant visuals
Seamless integration of Alexa for hands-free operation
Built-in Fire TV for easy access to streaming content
Versatile placement options for wall mounting or tabletop use
Included remote control for added convenience
Cons:
None observed.
Final Verdict:
The Echo Show 15 is a top-tier smart display that offers a perfect blend of functionality and entertainment. Whether you're looking to streamline your daily tasks with Alexa or enjoy your favorite movies and TV shows with Fire TV, this device delivers exceptional performance and versatility. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their smart home setup.
Looks and sounds great. Functionally have had no issues.
One of my favorite features is it works with my ring doorbell. When someone is at the front door, the video will pop up on the screen for your view, which is super nice.
Really wish I had got one sooner.
Anyway, I set it up the same night I brought it home. The Echo Show 15 is pretty impressive with it's 15.6" screeen and the picture quality is quite beautiful. It is also heavy, from researching it, it weighs 4 lbs and 4 oz. and I was actually afraid to have it fall or drop for fear of hurting and/or damaging it and whatever it fell onto.
My boss thought that I should mount it somewhere in my kitchen. However, I have a fairly small house and there is actually no wall space in my kitchen that would hold a 15.6" device. That same night I ended up purchasing the All New, Made for Amazon Tilt and Swivel Stand as shown in the picture. I received it a couple of days later and it is pretty cool. You can turn the Echo vertically or horizontally and it sits fairly well on my kitchen counter.
When I started looking at the Echo features it did and still does take some getting used to. It's definitely not like Apple devices, the technology is just not there yet and it has some limitations. One thing I didn't know is that you have to download the Alexa app so that you can communicate between the two. You can sink any of your other devices (Ring camera, smart lightbulbs, to name a few) through the Alexa app and tell the Echo what to do, or you can actually talk to the Echo using Alexa voice commands.
Using the Alexa voice commands is somewhat tricky because what you may think is something that we, as humans would not have to explain in any detail, Alexa doesn't. You have to be very specific in what you are asking "her" to do or find. You can't just say play a song or open an app you have to, 1 - call her name and 2 - say very clearly what it is that you want her to do, which means you may need to make your request in several commands. That takes some getting used to.
Back to the Echo, the device does not turn off...there is no on or off button/switch. As it does not turn off, it is constantly "listening" to everything being said by humans and any other speaking device, like the t.v. That's a little disconcerting.
You can design the home screen from the factory settings. I believe the original screen had 6 different "widgets" that were exactly the same size, I changed the displayed and I reduced it down to 5 as shown in the picture.
I am not going to go over every feature the Echo has, there are YouTube videos that show, in quite a bit of detail, almost all of the features the Echo Show 15 has. I will review a couple of other features that I thought were interesting.
I currently subscribe to Amazon Prime Music and have created several playlists. I thought that since I had Amazon Music and the Echo Show 15 was an Amazon product, that the two would seamlessly connect together. That is so not the case. When you want to play music, the Echo has lots of music channels and in order to get your music to play your Amazon playlist you have to have an Amazon family music subscription, which was an upgrade for me with more of a monthly expense. Then you have to tell Alexa to play the specific playlist from your music library. This is one feature that I find most annoying. Also the Echo will play Spotify or possibly other music apps, but you have to link your account to the Alexa app in order to play that music.
My last review is in the "widgets"...the selections are very limited, especially if you want to watch a movie. It doesn't have access to HBO Max or Disney+, to mention a few, but it does have Netflix and Amazon Prime Videos as well as YouTube. It took a while to find the movie widgets and I still haven't learned how to attach them to my home screen.
Overall, the Echo Show 15 is a very nice device that definitely comes in handy when I'm cooking and want to listen to some music. I can pull up YouTube music videos or play music from my Amazon playlist. My kids have had some fun using it as well. Mostly it just sits on my kitcher counter waiting for me to tell it to do something. I honestly don't believe I would have spent $250 on it but since my boss was so kind to buy one for me why not take advantage of the gift?
Thanks for taking the time to read this long and sometimes rambling review.

Anyway, I set it up the same night I brought it home. The Echo Show 15 is pretty impressive with it's 15.6" screeen and the picture quality is quite beautiful. It is also heavy, from researching it, it weighs 4 lbs and 4 oz. and I was actually afraid to have it fall or drop for fear of hurting and/or damaging it and whatever it fell onto.
My boss thought that I should mount it somewhere in my kitchen. However, I have a fairly small house and there is actually no wall space in my kitchen that would hold a 15.6" device. That same night I ended up purchasing the All New, Made for Amazon Tilt and Swivel Stand as shown in the picture. I received it a couple of days later and it is pretty cool. You can turn the Echo vertically or horizontally and it sits fairly well on my kitchen counter.
When I started looking at the Echo features it did and still does take some getting used to. It's definitely not like Apple devices, the technology is just not there yet and it has some limitations. One thing I didn't know is that you have to download the Alexa app so that you can communicate between the two. You can sink any of your other devices (Ring camera, smart lightbulbs, to name a few) through the Alexa app and tell the Echo what to do, or you can actually talk to the Echo using Alexa voice commands.
Using the Alexa voice commands is somewhat tricky because what you may think is something that we, as humans would not have to explain in any detail, Alexa doesn't. You have to be very specific in what you are asking "her" to do or find. You can't just say play a song or open an app you have to, 1 - call her name and 2 - say very clearly what it is that you want her to do, which means you may need to make your request in several commands. That takes some getting used to.
Back to the Echo, the device does not turn off...there is no on or off button/switch. As it does not turn off, it is constantly "listening" to everything being said by humans and any other speaking device, like the t.v. That's a little disconcerting.
You can design the home screen from the factory settings. I believe the original screen had 6 different "widgets" that were exactly the same size, I changed the displayed and I reduced it down to 5 as shown in the picture.
I am not going to go over every feature the Echo has, there are YouTube videos that show, in quite a bit of detail, almost all of the features the Echo Show 15 has. I will review a couple of other features that I thought were interesting.
I currently subscribe to Amazon Prime Music and have created several playlists. I thought that since I had Amazon Music and the Echo Show 15 was an Amazon product, that the two would seamlessly connect together. That is so not the case. When you want to play music, the Echo has lots of music channels and in order to get your music to play your Amazon playlist you have to have an Amazon family music subscription, which was an upgrade for me with more of a monthly expense. Then you have to tell Alexa to play the specific playlist from your music library. This is one feature that I find most annoying. Also the Echo will play Spotify or possibly other music apps, but you have to link your account to the Alexa app in order to play that music.
