The fire tv cube is fast with 4K streaming! Voice commands is another plus. I have my soundBar and smart lightbulbs all connected to Alex’s that make life easier. Thank you amazon for another great device.

My first experience with Alexa and was amazingly easy to setup and control. You can use the voice control or the remote. With the proper subscriptions you can take advantage of all of the features.

Fire TV Cube 2nd Gen makes Life Easy

• Plenty of choices for steaming 4k (make sure your TV can be built for that resolution). I mainly use Netflix, but you have Prime and thousands of more apps with this little guy. Have to admit it’s a pretty large library (that also has simple games to play).
• My TV is built to play 4k, and I found no difference in quality if I put in a Blu-ray disk instead.
• I’m getting a pretty immersive experience. 60 fps with HDR10 support and Dolby Atmosphere for audiophiles.
• The Cube is pretty fast as well. The response time is very efficient when you’re asking simple questions/commands. I have to assume that because of the Cube software, it doesn’t need to rely on Amazon’s servers.
• Have to give props on the microphone inside this machine. Even at the movie volume level, saying Alexa, will pick up your voice. I haven’t tested this out if you’re in a room full of loud people, but I assume you’ll get the same results.
• I felt to have more use of using my voice than with a controller with this one. One example, I can tell Alexa which way to scroll and to open an app (Netflix for me) that I want to watch and Alexa follows that flawlessly. The voice recognition is more of a tool than a little side perk in this Cube.
• It’s a smart home device, so you ask the Cube to turn on almost anything that is connected to a smart plugin. I found this great to use to just turn on the TV. No remote required.
• The YouTube experience is also right on point. I’ve read that the past Fire TV Cubes from Amazon didn’t have a YouTube app. Well, this one does have it and it works without issue. I found this better if you already have a list of videos in your “Watch List” as searching will take time since you have no keyboard. What I do is I use my smartphone to quickly add the videos I want to my watch list and then refresh the YouTube page on the Cube. Simple and quick.
• A very lively interface. It’s not complex and the simple guidelines it provides you make this ready to use right out of the box.
• It does have an Ethernet adapter. I strongly recommend you use this. My Wi-Fi tends to disconnect at random times and an Ethernet connector prevents this from happening.
• The remote that it comes with has a nice “clicky” touch and an excellent touchpad. The voice layout works well enough that I use the remote only to explore new apps on the Cube, or type.
• When you start digging around with the Cube, some great features pop up. One is when you move your cursor over to a live channel (If you have “On Now”) it gives you a preview of what is happening on that channel. Similar to when you go on YouTube and move your move over to a video. Very efficient and something I had to make a pro for.
• The setup took less than 3 minutes. The Cube identified my Samsung the moment it was connected.
• If you have an Amazon Echo, then it’s exactly that but merged with a Fire TV Stick. This means, besides the simple weather questions, you can ask for directions to the closest restaurants and so forth. I live in a location where fast food restaurants are the lay of the land, but I can see this to be helpful for those who live deep in a city.
• The microphone is set up in the Cube, and not the remote. You won’t have to worry if you lose the remote.
• Amazon is not kidding. Ten of thousands of channels you can search through. I have to believe that Amazon has a channel for every person.

So much more reliable than Firestick and Firestick 4K. Faster processor and lots more memory. Great with Recast DVR too. I have two and they replaced the slow Firestick’s.

Has worked very well, but for some reason I did need to reset it once in the past month. Not sure why but was surprised because it had worked so well. Setup could have been easy, but I needed it to work with my Tivo, A/V receiver, and smart TV. Got everything working except for having Alexa turn off TV when it turns off the receiver. IT will turn everything on (including TV) and switch to the Fire cube input, but not turn the TV off with voice command. For people with a less complicated setup, I think this would be a great choice. The only other comment, is there are so many streaming options and app, it can become overwhelming.

Easy to set up and navigate. Voice command is very impressive and responsive. I own 3 4K Firesticks and they are great but this new cube is awesome! Added a USB drive with an OTG cable and added 32 Gigs of memory no problem. Great device absolutely would recommend this to anyone.

I like the Amazon box because it has 16gb of storage to download a lot of streaming apps. The 4k is excellent and the built in Amazon Alexa is even better.

I recently purchased a Sony 65 inch 900 series 4K tv and tried to use the TV’s smart functions fearing I would lose some picture quality if I used a streaming device. Finding the Sony operating system awful I took a chance with the 1st generation Fire Cube I had. The picture was definitely comparable. Wanting the best picture possible I purchased the 2nd generation Fire Cube and I have to say the picture was quite nice. If there is a lower quality picture I can’t tell. Very happy with this fire cube and interface. Would definitely recommend it.

I have both the firestick and cube. I like the cube so much better. It has more memory than the firestick. Love the 4k picture quality. Works great with Ring cameras.
