Like most smart displays, Amazon has long focused on the Echo Show as a \u201ccounter screen\u201d type device, with angled displays and small-ish screens. But the Echo Show 15 is entirely different. This is a thing meant to look nice in your home, whether that be on a counter or your wall. Squint, and you might confuse it for a picture frame. And that look necessitates decision-making for where the device.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Easy_to_Set_Up_With_a_Few_New_Steps\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_0\">Easy to Set Up With a Few New Steps<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-110142 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/02\/caf191c2.jpg\" alt=\"An Echo Show 15 hung on a wall\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Josh Hendrickson\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Josh Hendrickson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>With most Echo devices, setup is pretty straightforward. You plug in the Echo, connect the app, log in with your Amazon account and choose a few options, then you\u2019re good to go. But the Echo Show 15 is a tiny bit more involved due to the nature of the device.<\/p>\n<p>The design of this Echo Show resembles a picture frame, which means you can\u2019t just plop it on a nightstand and call it a day. Instead, you have a choice: do you want it on a flat surface, or do you want to hang it on a wall? If you\u2019re going to place it on a desk or countertop, you\u2019ll need to buy a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B099LF68JS\/?tag=reviewgeek-20\">separate stand<\/a>. And if you want it on the wall, prepare to drill some holes. Amazon includes a template to help with that process, but you need to pick whether to display in portrait or horizontal mode first because it can\u2019t rotate while mounted. Just be prepared to give up a good bit of space if you want it on your desk. As the name implies, it houses a 15-inch screen, and the \u201cframe\u201d bit makes the overall device even larger.<\/p>\n<p>Amazon Echo Show 15 also entails one optional extra step during the software setup. In addition to Voice ID, you can choose to enable Visual ID. It\u2019s a new feature that will also be available on the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/All-new-Echo-Show-8-2nd-Gen-2021-release\/dp\/B084DCJKSL?tag=reviewgeek-20\">Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen)<\/a>\u00a0and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/echo-show-10\/dp\/B07VHZ41L8?tag=reviewgeek-20\">Echo Show 10 (3rd Gen)<\/a>. The company promises that all processing takes place locally, and the images of your face won\u2019t hit Amazon\u2019s cloud. While I didn\u2019t plan to hang the Echo Show 15 on the wall (I\u2019m not drilling holes for a review unit), it seems pretty easy to hang the device high enough to cause problems with Visual ID setup. You have to stand centered to the camera and turn in multiple directions, so it gets a good look at you.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t want Visual ID, you don\u2019t have to set it up. And if the idea of an Amazon camera on your wall doesn\u2019t sit well with you, you\u2019ll appreciate the physical privacy shutter. Slide the switch, and a white barrier slides in front of the camera. I like the touch of the white cover, as it nearly blends in with the white picture frame look.\u00a0As it turns out, the mounting holes for the optional stands are VESA compatible, so I hung it on my computer monitor\u2019s wall mount for review pictures. In theory, that\u2019s another option you could go with if you want.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_Widgets_a_Smart_Home_Hub_and_So_Much_More\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_1\">New Widgets, a Smart Home Hub, and So Much More<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-110143 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/02\/8964a834.jpg\" alt=\"An Echo Show 15, offering recipe suggestions\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Josh Hendrickson\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Josh Hendrickson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Echo Show 15 is a drastic departure from other Echo Show devices, thanks to new features like Widgets. Those Widgets will eventually come to other Echo Show devices, but given this screen\u2019s sheer size, they\u2019ll probably always work \u201cbest\u201d here.<\/p>\n<p>To start, the Echo Show 15 has 14 widgets you can select. They are Alexa suggestions, Calendar, Commute, Cookpad Recipe of the Day, Favorite Photos, Games, Maps, Music and Audio, Reorder Suggestions, Shopping List, Smart Home Favorites, Sticky Notes, To-Do List, Weather, What to Eat, What to Watch, and Your Deliveries. Right away, you should notice a couple of patterns here.<\/p>\n<p>One, most of the widgets are Amazon-made. Third-party widgets are a long way off, with only one in the list (Cookpad Recipe of the Day) naming a developer other than Amazon. That\u2019s a pity for early adopters because the choices are pretty threadbare right now. And that leads to the second pattern.<\/p>\n<p>Amazon\u2019s widgets are primarily about selling you stuff. Oh sure, there\u2019s a smart home widget and a calendar widget. But look through that list again: favorite photos relies on Amazon\u2019s cloud, which you\u2019ll want a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/amazonprime?tag=reviewgeek-20\">Prime subscription<\/a> to utilize, then there\u2019s Shopping List, What to Eat, What to Watch, and Reorder Suggestions. Yes, that last one blatantly advertises stuff you should buy again. Even Alexa suggestions reinforce using the Amazon ecosystem.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-110146 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/02\/107c1139.jpg\" alt=\"An Echo Show 15 hanging on the wall above a laptop\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Josh Hendrickson\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Josh Hendrickson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>All of that shows the underlying drive of Amazon using the Echo Show 15 as an advertising center, but we\u2019ll get to that in a moment. First, I\u2019d like to focus on my hopes and dreams for this thing: a nice smart home hub you can hang on the wall. I\u2019m sorry to say it doesn\u2019t work out that way.<\/p>\n<p>Like most of the widgets, you can\u2019t resize the smart home widget. Some offer a large and small option, but most don\u2019t. As such, the smart home widget only shows a few \u201cfavorite\u201d devices. Three and a half on the screen, followed by the other half of a device plus another two. If you want the rest, you\u2019ll have to navigate to the smart home section found in the notification shade. That\u2019ll get you an Alexa app-like list of devices. Be prepared for some frustration here, though; actually interacting with the Echo Show 15 by touch is somewhat slow. Everything takes a little longer than it feels like it should.<\/p>\n<p>The other problem is one that all Echo Show devices share: the home screen content (besides the widgets, that is) serves primarily as yet another advertisement center. By default, it\u2019ll offer recipe suggestions, Alexa tips, trending topics, frequent order suggestions, notifications from Alexa services, and more. Thankfully, you can turn (nearly) all of that off by digging into the settings, but that leaves you with wasted space you can\u2019t hide that still advertises Amazon some and mainly rotates through weather and clock photos. I\u2019d rather make the Widgets full screen.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Camera_and_Audio_Could_Be_Better\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_2\">The Camera and Audio Could Be Better<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-110147 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/02\/4113bb42.jpg\" alt=\"The side of an Echo Show 15 showing physical buttons and a switch\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Josh Hendrickson\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Depending on your mount choices, the volume and camera privacy shutter buttons are easy to reach. <span class=\"imagecredit\">Josh Hendrickson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>One of the other new standout features of the Echo Show 15 is Visual ID, and that\u2019s made possible by the camera built into the device. Visual ID detects who you are and pops up custom content for you, such as calendar appointments, in the home screen area. If you go through the process for multiple people, you\u2019ll get helpful features like leaving notes for each other. You tell Alexa to leave a note for \u201cJohn,\u201d and when John steps in front of the Echo Show 15, the note pops up.<\/p>\n<p>It worked seamlessly and seemed to have no trouble recognizing me. But that\u2019s the extent of the nice things I can say about the camera. For actual video calls, it isn\u2019t great. The quality is low-end webcam level. And the placement makes the \u201cno eye contact\u201d issue with videos worse. It\u2019s far away from the center of the screen, giving you a \u201clooking at something else\u201d appearance. That\u2019s true whether you\u2019re in portrait or landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, the speakers aren\u2019t anything to write home about either. As large as the Echo Show 15 is, you\u2019d think Amazon could fit in some speakers capable of thump, but apparently, that isn\u2019t the case. Everything comes out tinny and threadbare. I strained to hear any bass coming from the device and quickly turned to other speakers for my music. It\u2019s okay for video calls, but in theory, you can watch videos or listen to music on the Echo Show 15. In practice, I can\u2019t say you\u2019d enjoy it.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Good_First_Effort_But_Wait_For_The_Sequel\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_3\">A Good First Effort, But Wait For The Sequel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-110148 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/02\/5b5c4577.jpg\" alt=\"An Echo Show 16 with the words &quot;Camera off&quot; on the screen\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Josh Hendrickson\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">You get an on-screen confirmation when the privacy shutter closes as well. <span class=\"imagecredit\">Josh Hendrickson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Generally speaking, anytime a company tries a new product design, I advise waiting for the second attempt. Here, Amazon proves my point. The Echo Show 15 is by no means bad. It\u2019s just not great. I have trouble understanding why I\u2019d use it instead of any other Echo product. You\u2019ll get better sound out of the Echo Show 8, and eventually the same features. For the same price, you can get the Echo Show 10, and it pivots to follow you in the room.<\/p>\n<p>It isn\u2019t that $250 is too much to ask for this device. It\u2019s essentially a (limited) 15-inch tablet, and most tablets cost more. But it IS limited\u2014you mount this thing somewhere, and you can\u2019t download apps. So it\u2019s not really a tablet, and the comparison doesn\u2019t hold. And I appreciate the thought of a \u201csmart home hub\u201d that also \u201clooks like a picture frame.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The problem is it\u2019s not yet a very good smart home hub. Interacting by touch is too slow, getting to your smart home devices to control them by touch is too clunky, and you\u2019ll have to endure Amazon advertisements along the way. It\u2019s still faster and better to control by voice, and at that point, why not spend less on an Echo speaker?<\/p>\n<p>The Echo Show 15 is, without a doubt, a beautiful device that will fit into your home. But for now, that beauty is only skin deep. I think Amazon has a great starting point, and I hope the company tries again with an updated model. If it does and sticks the landing, this could be my next smart home hub.<\/p>\n<div class=\"single-review-card border\">\n<div class=\"review-card-heading\">\nRating: <strong>7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Price: <strong>$249.99<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"review-card-body\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"pros\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heres_What_We_Like-2\"><\/span>Here\u2019s What We Like<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Big clear screen<\/li>\n<li>Visual ID is useful<\/li>\n<li>Multiple mount options<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cons\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_What_We_Dont-2\"><\/span>And What We Don&#8217;t<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Widgets are lacking<\/li>\n<li>Speakers are tinny<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
