Can consumers mod the Echo Show 5 to include a GPIO board for robotic control? Then it could be installed into a human-like robot that can walk around the house and find products like toilet paper that are running low, and it can go to the consumer's laptop and log into the amazon.com website to order more. I tried doing this with Echo Show 4 but a GPIO mod wasn't possible.

Subscription is not required, it is good if working, but weird bug/feature that the basic functionality including turning on the light will be gone if no connectivity. Not recommended because of this weird/stupid bug. //@Anonymous: You can //@anonymous: can this be used without a subscription and if so what else needs to be bought? thanks

It takes a few seconds longer to pull videos from the sync module storage, and that's about the difference i am experiencing without the subscription. You just have to make sure the connection is good between cameras and sync module. //@Anonymous: Subscription is not required, it is good if working, but weird bug/feature that the basic functionality including turning on the light will be gone if no connectivity.

If you don't want to pay subscription, look into getting a sync module, which can take a USB flash drive as storage for all the videos. You can notifications for motions if you armed the cameras.

I bought a similar model just before the pandemic for $50. Well worth it at that price. $110+, not so much.
