However, the most important Alexa feature for this device is its ability to set alarms with ease. You simply have to say, “set an alarm for [time of day]” for single alarms, or “set a repeating alarm for [day of week] at [time]” for repeating ones. Alexa can manage up to one hundred alarms. The larger speakers give the Sangean a deep, rich sound, which can be adjusted with the included remote.

The Echo Show 5 may be able to do a lot but keep in mind that it is far from perfect in its current state.

You will have to connect your phone if you want to edit one of the 15 stored alarms, though, which kind of puts this speaker in an awkward place.With a wide variety of features and high-quality construction, there is little to dislike about the Sandman Doppler. The only reasons you might prefer a different smart alarm would be if you didn’t have the space for it or if it was out of your price range. You also might prefer a nightstand with a built-in screen but, hey, that’s what our phones are for. Wi-fi for music streaming: Radios with wi-fi - called internet radios - often support music streaming services such as Spotify (may require subscriptions) It is fairly easy to schedule alarms and customize them but this device can only hold four alarms before you connect it to a voice assistant.

Love the concept but want a bigger display? The Echo Show 8 2nd Gen performs all the exact same functions but with a more practical 8-inch touchscreen.
