It's also equipped with a built-in microphone and Amazon Alexa, so you can use it as a hands-free hub to control other smart devices in your home, or check the weather, stream music, set a timer and more using only the sound of your voice. And when you're not using it, the Echo Show 8 doubles as a sleek digital photo frame, using pictures directly from Facebook, or uploaded to your Amazon Photos account.
