Question: what is the difference between the 1st and 2nd generation echo show?
Answer: The 2018 screen measures in at 10.1 inches, and has an even more rectangular shape, closer to the shape of a traditional TV screen than the original Show. Amazon is now explicitly calling the screen “HD,” indicating a pixel-density upgrade. The one on the second-gen Show is now 1280 x 800 with 720p HD video.
