The Amazon Echo Show 5 is gaining attention with a significant discount in Spain, highlighting its continued relevance as a compact, affordable smart home hub amid rumours of Apple’s own smart display.
Amid renewed talk that Apple may be preparing its own smart display, Amazon’s Echo Show 5 remains one of the clearest examples of how mature this category has become. The compact model is being sold with a substantial temporary discount in Amazon Spain, bringing the price down from €109.99 to €64.99 for a limited period. For buyers looking for a small screen that can sit comfortably in a kitchen, bedroom or study, the device continues to stand out on value as much as on features.
Tom’s Guide has described the Echo Show 5 as a compact smart display with solid audio, useful smart home integration and the ability to make video calls, while Android Central has highlighted its ease of use and strong Alexa support. That combination is important because the device is not just a speaker with a screen: it is designed to act as a control point for connected lights, plugs, cameras and other home devices, while also handling everyday tasks such as alarms, reminders, weather checks and podcasts.
The latest-generation model adds a sharper display, quicker Alexa responses and a camera suited to video calls, according to Tech Advisor. The same review also noted that the device is more expensive than earlier versions at full price, which makes promotions particularly relevant for shoppers comparing it with larger Echo Show models or rival smart displays. TechSpot has pointed to the bright touchscreen and sunrise alarm as strengths, while also flagging the camera and the lack of Google service support as possible drawbacks for some users.
That mix of strengths and limits helps explain why the Echo Show 5 remains popular. It is small enough to fit into tight spaces, yet broad enough in function to serve as a practical household hub. For consumers who want a simple smart display rather than a larger, more expensive centrepiece, the current offer makes Amazon’s entry-level model a more compelling purchase than its standard pricing suggests.
