For a recommended retail price of 129.99 euros*, the Echo Show 8 remains the best overall smart display package, even in its second generation, when the price is taken into account. At the start of today's Prime Day, it is available for 45 euros less for just 84.99 euros for a short time*...

Very good screen. Sounds better than the other models with display, but overall only mediocre. Very versatile. Function for internet and video telephony preinstalled.

Amazon clearly wins the smart display competition: the three devices of the Echo Show series land on the winner's podium. The 8-inch version offers the best package of voice assistance, functions and sound. The Nest Hub from Google is placed in the midfield. Despite the camera, the Lenovo displays have to be content with the lower ranks.
