Questions & Answers

When it comes to working with blink, I'm getting mixed messages. Will it work with outdoor cameras that blink?

My blink XT2 cameras are connected to my echo show, and everything is working fine.

When you're on a video call, does it track or follow your movements?

No, only the new not-yet-released Echo Show models are included in the Echo Show lineup. yet- This is accomplished by the recently released Echo Show 10 (not to be confused with the Echo Show 2nd generation).

For the blink mini, do I need a base module? Is the show a base, or is it the other way around?

The show (the big one) has a built-in link, but I'm not sure if it works with the blink cameras. However, I own an Echo Show 5, which, as I discovered after purchasing some smart plugs, has no link capabilities.

Is this situation appropriate for children aged 3 and up? 5 y old?

Yes, my four-year-old uses this device for everything, including video chatting with his grandmother. I'm not sure how we ever managed without it.

Selected User Reviews For Echo Show 5 Sandstone with Blink Mini Indoor Smart Security Camera, 1080 HD with Motion Detection

Amazing
5/5

This is fantastic. Speaker is an outstanding individual. Excellent craftsmanship. It's a lot of fun to use all of the skills. I can even use it to follow YouTube recipes, listen to music, and so on. I also have a ring doorbell camera, so this device shows me the front door and sounds the doorbell. I am capable of communicating with people both outside and inside my home. I can also order pizza from it now that I've linked my Domino's account to it! Simply incredible. With this device, there are literally endless possibilities, and I am overjoyed to have them!.

As a compact bedside or desktop "smart" clock radio, it's fantastic! Despite the fact that the sound quality was inferior to that of my Echo Plus, I couldn't resist purchasing this as a smart bedside alarm clock - I like it because I can watch video from my smart doorbell and Blink Mini without having to take out my phone
4/5

I couldn't say no to such great holiday pricing, which included the option of bundling with a $10 Blink Mini. As I was writing this, I noticed that a similar sale is currently taking place - So I just bought a new Echo Show 5/Blink Mini bundle! br>br>Normally, I wouldn't put anything with a camera in my bedroom, but the physical camera shutter gives me peace of mind. The ability to connect to a bluetooth speaker or sound bar helps to make up for the poor audio quality. br>br>The Echo Show 8 is - if you can (or want) to afford it and have the space. because of the obvious - It's a step up from its younger sibling. However, when the Show 5 is on sale, it offers a tremendous amount of value - At the very least, if you plan to add a Blink Mini to your security system. br>br>I would strongly advise!.

Don't waste your money on their advertisements! Ads! I have a lot of Alexa products in my house
3/5

All of them are fantastic, but I absolutely despise SHOW #5! THERE WAS A LOT OF CRAP ON THE SCREEN. ALL OF THE THINGS I CAN DO WITH ALEXA WHAT DOES IT DO, I'm not sure. I SEE THE SAME CRAP MONTHS LATER. This is something I had to pay for. I'm 68 years old and disabled. It's a complete squander of funds. Because of what you're trapped looking at, these should be $20. The sound is also awful! Mine had my photos, but when I clicked on it, a photo appeared, followed by a slew of their own ads. I've positioned it so that it's facing down. I can't take it anymore. My dots are a favorite of mine. It would have been preferable to obtain a second dot!.

Love it
5/5

This is fantastic. It does not display advertisements; instead, it displays Amazon recommendations, which slide across the screen without sound, so I'm not sure why people are upset. As it is a slide show, the suggestions are limited because I uploaded some photos of my children. My only issue is that without the base, the camera points too high, so I had to prop it up at an angle to see everything in the room. Apart from that, I adore it! I purchased it to pair with a camera doorbell so that my children could see who was at the door. I have not yet received my doorbell, so I will report back once I do to see how well they connect. I also received mine with a mini blink, which is fantastic. I bought it to keep an eye on my kids and dog while I'm at work, rather than as a baby monitor. The two-way communication mode is fantastic.

This is a difficult system to set up
3/5

Setting up this system is extremely difficult. There was far too much to download before getting started with the installation. This was a pain for me to do and far too complicated for elderly people to do on their own, even though I am fairly tech savvy. The fact that both units must be plugged into a wall was a major drawback; if you want something portable, this combination isn't for you.

It states that it works with blink and ring, but it does not work with any ring or anything! My blinks are all there is
3/5

I'm a ring and blink kind of guy. Also, it says this works with ring right on the box and in the I go app (and I have the charcoal color and sandstone), but it doesn't work with RING video at all! With a blink of an eye, I'm going to give it four stars. Because it works with any blink indoor or outdoor device. . . honestly, I bought two more for the ring bell so that if I didn't have my phone with me, I could use this instead- However, despite the fact that it claims to work with a ring, it does not! However, it is possible to use blink with it! br>Kouros is a Greek word that means "adventure" in English.

There will be no more headaches from Zoom school
5/5

While my son is doing Zoom school, I have this next to him at the kitchen table. Because I wanted to be involved while he was at school during the pandemic, I didn't get much done at home. Now I can watch him on my phone ("pay attention! "). ") or listen in so I can keep up with what's going on without having to sit next to him all of the time. day. long. It's not distracting because it's small.

It's still a work in progress
5/5

So far, the Echo 5 has left me very impressed. For my bedroom, I planned to buy a nice clock with a night light. Why don't I just buy it?, I reasoned. I'm glad I took the initiative. Because I have a hard time falling asleep, the guided meditation and rain sounds skills are extremely beneficial. I like that I can request a quick news flash and only hear the story I'm interested in without having to sit through an entire show of commercials. Today I'll put my audi0book to the test. I was just thinking, you'll want the version with a larger screen, as I do. lol.
