Abstract: Amazon has started shipping the Fire TV Cube, a media player aiming at the Apple TV 4K. But, can it bring as much to the table as Apple's device does, for just a little bit less money...
The Amazon Fire TV Cube lets you control power, input switching and volume on your TV, sound bar or AV receiver hands-free from across the room, using only voice commands. You can also use your voice to change channels on a cable box. The microphones are
If you want to use a source device beyond Fire TV -- like your cable DVR, game console, smart TV, Roku or Apple TV -- you'll have to keep its remote on-hand. The included Fire TV remote can't control other devices and even lacks volume and mute keys. Many

Launching videos with Alexa is glorious—when it works, Voice control for TV volume, sound systems, and cable boxes is a nice touch, Visual Alexa responses turn the TV into a powerful Echo-like device
Alexa is embarrassingly bad at genre search and inconsistent at playback controls, No volume control on the remote, Ads and promotional materials clutter the on-screen interface
The Fire TV Cube wants to replace your remote with voice commands, but Alexa isn't up for the challenge...

Speedier performance, Alexa's cable box controls are great, Great 4K HDR picture quality, Lively interface
Home screen can't be edited, packs ads, Awkward Ethernet adapter
Amazon's previous streaming devices have scratched at greatness, but the Fire TV Cube's union of Alexa and Fire TV makes for a harmonious marriage. Not only is it excellent at pumping out brilliant picture quality, but its ability to switch between inputs...

Alexa makes a capable media navigator, Setup is straightforward, Still get many of Alexa's other Skills, Competitively priced
Not a fully-fledged Echo, IR can still be awkward, Built-in speaker is weedy, Full Alexa support is app-dependent

Adds Alexa to your living room entertainment system, Controls more than just your TV, Supports 4K HDR content, Picks up voice commands even while video or music is playing
Stumbles when controlling certain devices and set-top boxes, Included remote is too simple, Doesn't come with necessary HDMI cable, Still doesn't offer any Dolby Atmos content or a YouTube app

Voice searching is convenient, Still a capable Fire TV 4K streaming device, Brings in many useful Alexa features
Alexa still can't handle common video viewing commands, Almost twice the price of the $70 Fire TV, Voice controls might not work for all of your devices
In fairness, all these movies and television shows (not to mention the specialized vocabulary of home theater gear) are new territories for Alexa, and it'll take time for Amazon's assistant to get really good at dealing with everything. At this point, the...
