The Amazon Fire TV Cube promised a hands-free experience and advanced features.
As COVID-19 raged through the world, TV entertainment systems were a godsend that kept watchers amused and engaged in the safety of their own home.
While the Amazon Fire TV Stick brought the joys of binge watching to diverse app and device users, we had the opportunity to review the Amazon Fire TV Cube that promised a hands-free experience and advanced features. Here’s what we discovered.
In the box we received, there was a Fire TV Cube, a power cord, an adapter for the Cube, a Fire TV remote, batteries for the remote, and documents for the device.
The package did not have an HDMI cable, which is required to connect the Cube to the TV. This was disappointing, considering the device’s price point.

The Fire TV Cube is small enough to fit in one’s palm and its sleek design helps it blend well with the existing home entertainment system.
The device has four buttons - a microphone mute button for privacy, volume up and down buttons, and an Alexa activation button. A thin light-up bar along the top edge glows when the volume is adjusted or Alexa is active. The Fire TV Cube has a fine mesh finish which makes it resemble a speaker.
