Run your home effortlessly with this charcoal Amazon Echo Show 8. It has an interactive touchscreen which is perfect for making quick to-do lists and watching the latest Amazon Prime shows, while the built-in camera lets you connect with friends and family around the world through video calls. Plus, you can use Amazon Alexa to ask questions, set diary reminders and even get news updates. It’s also great for playing music through streaming services, so you can listen to your favourite albums when you’re busy in the kitchen.
