sorted byThe voice assistant actually worked quite well for control of local devices, but using the interface was painfully clunky, slow and laggy. The CPU in the Show 15 appears to be more powerful, but it's going to be nowhere near as good as a any decent tablet or modern smartphone.
The deal breaker was the Ads. I know some people don't seem to mind, but having uninvited ads pumped into my home like a digital advertising billboard really irks me.
People say you can turn them off, by pressing ↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A, blah blah. So you "turn off ads", then it'll still advertise amazon services. Then you switch those off, then it's grand for a week then the next time you look it is advertising some new thing that it auto-opts you into so you need to disable that too. Rinse and repeat.
I traded my Show in for a Echo speaker, then bought a Pixel tablet instead to use as a smart home hub. It can work great with home assistant, has no ads, is responsive and has a lovely screen. It just comes with a massive downside... and that is the £500 price tag.
Given Amazon is likely to continue to deliver more Ads or charge a subscription fee for the Echo devices or a premium version, I won't be buying a Show device again. (edited)
On the 2nd gen, it was a pain. I went in settings and switched off more than 50% of the ads 'domains'. The display was still showing countless ads. Little by little, I switched off more and more domains. Still annoying, no change. Eventually, I left only one domain unticked. I barely get any ads now. Because of this, and also for some other reasons, I do like more the 1st gen. (edited)
At present I’m using the Sky Go app on an iPad Pro 1st gen but the battery has started going on me, so I’d like this as a replacement for that reason only really, so I can watch rubbish telly while cooking
Or the Amazon fire app on iPhone? (Or android)
Fingers crossed it does the job as it could make life a lot easier!
I keep looking at it thinking "that's just what I need!" but I worry about how much flexibility there will really be, whether the widgets will do what we need to do etc...
I guess Sky Go wouldn’t be available on this, as it’s not on the firesticks?
I’ve been waiting for one of these to crop up, just not sure I’d get my monies worth out of it, I barely use the Show 8.
34 quid for a plastic stand is a bit ambitious too like. (edited)
