With the Amazon Fire TV Cube, you can stream your favorite content, control everything with voice, and connect to all your smart home products in one convenient box. It can play movies and shows, run your live TV setup, and connect your devices with hands-free Alexa support. Because the box has both microphones and speakers, it can hear and respond to your voice from anywhere in the room. It’s great if you want one device to tie your entire entertainment system together.
A multifaceted entertainment system to watch your favorite shows and movies
The Fire TV Cube has an Octa-Core processor to help make app launch times quicker, and its UI is designed around voice commands, allowing you to search for movies by actors, plots, and memorable quotes. This gives you a wider range of options than simply scrolling through endless menus. The Alexa voice-controlled feature also lets you control compatible TVs, soundbars, and receivers with voice commands.
One of the best features of the Fire TV Cube is the HDMI input. This allows you to add the product to any entertainment system, then connect your cable or satellite box to the Fire TV Cube, and use Alexa to control your live TV. The included Alexa Voice Remote Enhanced includes power and volume controls for your external components, channel buttons for live TV, and quick access to your last-viewed items, and remains very useful even if you primarily use voice commands.
The Fire TV Cube supports 4K Ultra HD, Dolby Vision, HDR, HDR10+, and Dolby Atmos audio. It also comes with Super Resolution Upscaling, which takes lower-quality HD content and upscales it to a sharper 4K image. For internet connectivity, it includes both Wi-Fi 6E support and an Ethernet port for those who prefer a wired connection for improved stability.
You’ll find the Cube is more than just a streaming device. In addition to controlling your viewing experience, it can also assist with your smart home needs. For example, you can use Alexa to check the weather, start video calls, and display a live feed from your compatible Ring camera. As part of its privacy controls, the device also has a physical button that you can press to instantly disable the microphones.
At $100, the Fire TV Cube is an even more attractive option than it was at its original $140 price. If you pick up the Cube, you’ll receive faster performance, voice-controlled access via Alexa, picture and audio capabilities, Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, an HDMI input for connecting additional hardware, and a remote that performs its intended functions cleanly.
