Amazon have done it again! Great product.
Tip 1, to avoid constant clock screensaver, close camera latch
Tip 2, inordinate inactivity timeouts cannot be avoided
Overall a good device with some bug-fixes to be addressed in the near future. Clear screen, top speaker with good bass, responsive touch screen, and alexa has improved.
