OVERVIEW
Fire TV Cube is the first hands-free streaming media player with Alexa, delivering an all-in-one entertainment experience. From across the room just say, “Alexa, play Billions” and Fire TV Cube turns on your TV and starts playing the SHOWTIME drama, allowing you to control your entertainment with voice commands. Watch as thousands of movies and TV episodes come to life with vibrant colors and detailed contrast in 4K Ultra HD and HDR.
Watch as the display comes alive to show song lyrics and album art from Amazon Music. Stream music and books from Spotify, Pandora, TuneIn, Audible, and more.
Refer to the Amazon Fire TV Cube product detail page for more information.
