The aforementioned $30 stand is a possibility, though it feels flimsy, especially considering the overall heft of the product. If drilling into a wall is not your thing, Amazon’s third-party accessory makers have a few solutions. All in all, once we found a spot, decided on the orientation of the Show 15 (you can choose between vertical or horizontal), drilled four holes and securely hung the smart display, we were done in about 15 minutes. And, like any Echo Show, the 15 has dedicated buttons for muting the microphones, volume up, volume down and a shutter that you slide to block the camera.Īs for setup, you’ll need to do some drilling or screwing before you even utter the word “Alexa,” and the box includes a mounting template, a wall mount, anchors and screws. The Show 15 reminds us of Samsung’s The Frame TV with smaller bezels, and looks tidy in a black frame, white matte bezel and 15-inch screen in the middle. And that’s because it is designed to be hung on your wall, which means it better blends into home decor. The Echo Show 15 dwarfs the 10-inch Nest Hub Max, Show 10, Show 8, Show 5 and Nest Hub in terms of simple size. The Show 15 excels as a home hub with a great display and excellent calendar, list and reminder functionality, so long as you have the space for it. It’s not as countertop-friendly as the Show 5, 8 or 10, considering the sheer size, so if you do decide to use the $30 stand, the 15.6-inch smart display may feel too big. Yet with its speedier completion time on any request, its new design means it is ultimately meant to be hung on your wall, though it can also be paired with an accessory stand. How this compares: The Show 15 is powered by the latest processor from Amazon, making it even smarter than other Alexa-powered devices. However, this also means it can’t always keep the display facing you like the Show 10 and doesn’t offer best-in-class audio quality like the Show 8, 10 or fourth-gen Echo. What you need to know: The Show 15 offers the largest and sharpest display of any Alexa smart screen, but the biggest change here is its ability to hang on the wall. Who this is for: The Echo Show 15 is for anyone looking for a bigger, Alexa-enabled screen to better navigate calendars, notes or reminders, control a smart home or stream content.
