Amazon earlier this year renamed its line of smart Fire TVs to “Amazon Ember.” This change helps shoppers easily differentiate between Amazon’s lineup of smart Fire TVs (as in actual TVs with the display panel and everything) and its lineup of Fire TV Stick (the small plugins that enable smart TV features to any TV with an HDMI port). This is definitely a wise decisions as these are wholly different products and both having been referred to shorthand as “Fire TVs” certainly caused some confusion. Anyway, the new Amazon Ember TV happens to be on sale.
The latest model of the Amazon Ember comes in three different sizes, all of which are currently discounted when purchased from Amazon directly. You’re now able to save roughly 40% on the smart TV. The 43-inch model has come down from $330 to just $200 (saving you $130), the 50-inch has come down from $400 to just $240 (saving you $160), and the 55-inch has come down from $460 to just $280 (saving you $180).
The Newest Fire TV Experience
These TVs from Amazon each support high quality 4K resolution with HDR10+ for added color and depth of contrast. Everything on screen will be show with crisp visuals, and whites that are bright and blacks that are deep.
The Amazon Ember is made with a fast, quad-processor and support for Wi-Fi 6. This will ensure that apps load quickly, navigation remains smooth across the interfaces, and content will play with minimal buffering. No waiting for the menus or content to play catchup to your intention.
These TVs are now equipped with the all new Alexa+. This is an enhanced version of Amazon’s voice assistant. You can press the Alexa button on the remote and then talk naturally to the system to find the specific content you are looking for. Search across every app’s catalogue of movies and shows all from one place. You can also use Alexa+ to manage the smart devices in your home such as lightbulbs, thermostats, or video doorbells.
Amazon’s Fire TV interface allows access to hundreds of thousands of movies and shows across all the popular streaming apps including Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, and more. It also offers tons of free-, ad-supported content you can enjoy at no added cost. I mostly use my TV to watch YouTube while I’m eating lunch and I know I’m not the only one out there who does this.
The Amazon Ember also now has an Instantly On feature that can detect when someone has entered the room. This will keep the screen off most of the time, then turn on to show some pre-selected artwork or other content when you or someone else comes by.
