I have a Show 8 in the kitchen. Can't say I have ever needed to use it for recipes and the one time I tried it was a complete failure just providing possible links. All I seem to use mine for is turning lights on/off (through voice, Philips hue via Alexa), and cooking timers (main use).

Always found the Amazon Echo extremely limited in capability though I should caveat I have a Sonos system so do not need/use it for music play back. Looks like this one might have some extra functionality though.

Already got a Show 5 which was on offer, too small really to be useful as a display for much.

It's had a software update to run FireTV https://www.trustedreviews.com/news/amazon-echo-sh...

It's an American report, I don't know whether this update is global.
