Amazon globally announced the Echo Show 8 along with a whole bunch of Echo devices at the Amazon hardware event last September and now, the tech giant has finally brought the smart display to India.

The Echo Show 8 has an 8-inch HD display that supports touch input. The gadget measures 200mm x 135mm x 99mm and weighs 1037 grams. The smart display equips 2-inch neodymium speakers with passive bass radiator, dual-band Wi-Fi, a 1MP front camera, and a 3.5mm audio output.

The front camera equipped on the Echo Show 8 comes with a built-in physical shutter so that you can keep it closed whenever you want without risking your privacy. The shutter button is mounted on the top right corner of the device.
