All new Fire TV Cube
Last year we launched Fire TV Cube with the vision of giving customers a product that would make it easier than ever to watch the shows and movies they want, while simultaneously allowing them to control their smart home. Customer response was positive, and we spent the last year listening to feedback to build an even better version. The all-new Fire TV Cube, announced today, is the fastest and most powerful Fire TV ever. With an ultra-powerful hexa-core processor, it is more than twice as powerful as the first generation device, delivering a fast, fluid experience with instant access to 4K Ultra HD content at up to 60 frames per second. The all-new Fire TV Cube also comes with Local Voice Control, which is a new on-device processing feature that lets customers more quickly execute some of the most frequent voice commands. For example, “Alexa, scroll right,” “Alexa, go home,” “Alexa, select number one,” and more, are up to 4 times as fast as before. The all-new Fire TV Cube is available for pre-order today, and it will begin shipping on October 10 in the U.S., Canada, the UK, and Germany, and on November 5 in Japan.
The first-ever Fire TV Edition soundbar, the Nebular Soundbar from Anker turns your TV into a cinematic smart TV experience.

It is launching in the U.S., Canada, the UK, and Germany, and will begin shipping in November.
