Having said that I do own both Echo show 5 and 8 and 5 is definitely is small screen but it doesn't matter you use it mostly as a smart clock, to stream music or audiobooks and general notifications and stuff from Amazon. You can use this as a home camera when you are away and also use the drop-in feature to make video calls when you are away. And if you have it placed on your desk or pretty close to you, you can also it as video feed for your ring, wyze cameras and doorbells. But please be mindful that "5 inch screen" is actually 5 inches and will smaller in size than any screen which is larger than 5 inches..because you know that's how numbers work..
"Rip off don't buy ….. screen smaller than my iPhone……can't see it unless you are 2 feet away….. does less than the old ones …. A lot smaller …. It's a joke and a rip off …. want my money back

to be pedantic it probably is bigger than a 6.1 iphone screen because of aspect ratios. It might even be bigger than a 6.8 iPhone or whatever the biggest one is. Typically smartphones are very tall and narrow, maybe 19:9 or more, so the high diagonal number doesnt lead to as much actual surface area as nominally smaller diagonal 16:9 or 4:3 displays.
To echo what everybody else has said I'm kinda craving the small screen one now. Will be good to put by my bed and view security cams in the middle of the night without taking up room. i just hate the dangling cord, my regular echo non show i got one of those mounts that attaches it to your electric outlet. obviously cant do that with show.
I doubt it but anybody know if they improved the display quality on the newest generation of show 5's?? My last gen 5 had/has a pretty crud washed out display (understandable given the price), where my current gen 8 has a surprisingly high quality, warm glowy IPS. But i'd imagine that due to it being in a higher quality bracket rather than the generation.
also fwiw the old gen is slower than molasses and new one not all that much better despite beefier cpu. not sure why they dont just use their smooth tablet OS that they ALREADY HAVE.
If there was ever a Blonde Bimbo in this world, Alexa would have to be it.
Alexa knows nothing..can find the answer to nothing.
And the few answers that Alexa can find are not even close to the questions that I ask. Alexa can tell the time....Alexa can tell you the weather....and SOMETIMES..Alexa can find the song that you asked for. Beyond that, you will just stand there wondering why you even tried to get blood from a stone and asked in the first place.

I don't get complaining about the size when the size is clearly listed. You know how big it is before you order. So if you buy this to watch Netflix or serve as a digital picture frame, it sucks, not because it's a bad product, but because you were stupid to order a 5" screen for that use.
