That said, we generally recommend the Echo Show 5 as a inexpsive device that offers a good value. It is typically sold for around 40 pounds. The Echo show has a screen and a camera that helps display instructions and facilitate video calls. If you are looking for a cheaper and simpler Alexa device, the Echo Dot provides great value for the money, but has no screen.
