Amazon Fire TV (stylized as amazon fireTV) is a line of digital media players and microconsoles developed by Amazon.[12][13][14] The devices are small network appliances that deliver digital audio and video content streamed via the Internet to a connected high-definition television. They also allow users to access local content and to play video games with the included remote control or another game controller, or by using a mobile app remote control on another device.
The device is available in two form factors, set-top box and HDMI plug-in stick with, in general, lesser specifications than the contemporaneous boxes.[12] The current set-top box model is the Fire TV Cube with embedded Amazon Echo smart speaker (which effectively replaced the Fire TV box model[15][16]), while the stick form factor encompasses three models, the entry-level Fire TV Stick Lite, the standard Fire TV Stick, and the high-end Fire TV Stick 4K (the last of which effectively replaced the third-generation Fire TV with 4K Ultra HD "pendant"[17][18][19]).[20]
The first-generation Fire TV device was unveiled on April 2, 2014. The second-generation version was released in 2015, with additional Fire TV devices released on regular basis since.
In March 2016, Amazon began collaborating with television set manufacturers to include the Amazon Fire OS and Fire TV interface built-in with televisions sold to the public, labeled as Fire TV Edition.[21][22][23][24] In September 2018, Amazon extended the use of the Fire TV brand to the Fire TV Recast, an over-the-air television digital video recorder exclusively for viewing use with Fire TV and Amazon Echo Show devices.[25]
Fire TV hardware[edit]
Original model[edit]
First generation[edit]
The first Fire TV was made available for purchase in the US on the same day of the April 2014 announcement for US$99 and was launched with a video game called Sev Zero.[7] Codenamed "Bueller", after the eponymous character from Ferris Bueller's Day Off,[26][27] it offered HDMI audio, with support for Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 surround sound pass-through, if the user's Internet bandwidth was sufficient. According to Amazon, the Fire TV was designed to outpace competitors like the Apple TV and Roku in performance: the 0.72-inch-thick box featured a 1.7 GHz quad-core CPU (Qualcomm Snapdragon 8064), 2 GB of RAM and 8 GB of internal storage, along with a MIMO dual-band radio for 1080p streaming over 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi and a 10/100 Ethernet connection and USB 2.0 port. Included with the box is a Bluetooth remote control with a microphone for voice search.
The company said that it did not intend the Fire TV to compete with gaming consoles; instead, its gaming capabilities were geared toward people who did not already own a console but may play games on a smartphone or tablet. It has a dedicated controller accessory.[8]
Second generation[edit]
Amazon released a second-generation Fire TV, codenamed "Sloane",[26] after the film love interest of Ferris Bueller,[28] in late 2015. This version had 4K resolution support,[29] improved processor performance, and a MediaTek 8173C chipset to support H.265 (HEVC), VP8, and VP9 codecs. Wireless hardware upgrades included 4K capable, a dual-band 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi with 2x2 MIMO and Bluetooth 4.1.[30][24] It was effectively replaced with the Fire TV Cube.[15]
Third generation[edit]
The third-generation Fire TV, also known as the Fire TV with 4K Ultra HD and Alexa Voice Remote, was released in 2017. It eschewed the previous set-top box design for a small, diamond-shaped "pendant" reminiscent of the Fire TV Stick, which plugs directly into a television set's HDMI port and can be hung from a short HDMI extender cable. It contained a slower processor but more RAM than the second-generation Fire TV, and also had support for 4K resolution streaming, Dolby Atmos, and HDR10.[31][32] Production was discontinued in 2018 in favor of the Fire TV Stick 4K.[17]
Fire TV Cube[edit]
First generation[edit]
The Fire TV Cube was released in June 2018. It is similar in function to the third-generation Fire TV, but also includes embedded Alexa functionality similar to the Amazon Echo smart speaker line, and can use HDMI-CEC and an IR blaster to control other devices with voice commands. As its voice functionality is integrated into the device itself, the Fire TV Cube does not include the voice remote.[33][34] The device uses a 1.5 GHz quad-core ARM 4xCA53 processor, 2 GB RAM, and 16 GB storage.[35]
Second generation[edit]
A second-generation model was unveiled in September 2019, featuring a hexa-core processor, "Local Voice Control" (which allows client-side recognition of common voice commands to improve response time), and support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+.[36][37] It supports 4K output.

First generation[edit]
On November 19, 2014, Amazon released its Fire TV Stick, a smaller dongle version of the Fire TV that plugs into an HDMI port. Codenamed "Montoya",[26] it retains much of the functionality of the larger Fire TV.[38] It has 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of internal storage, weighs 0.9 oz (26 g), and it uses a Broadcom BCM28155 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 processor and a Broadcom VideoCore IV GPU. Wireless hardware includes a dual-band 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi with 2x2 MIMO and Bluetooth 3.0 [24][39] The Fire TV Stick is bundled with a remote control, in either of two variants: one with Alexa voice search and one without Alexa.
Second generation[edit]
On October 20, 2016, Amazon released the Fire TV Stick with Alexa Voice Remote, codenamed "Tank".[26][40] Other than the new remote, the updates include MediaTek MT8127D Quad-core ARM 1.3 GHz processor with a Mali-450 MP4 GPU, and support for the H.265 (HEVC) codec. Wireless hardware upgrades includes a dual-band 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi with 2x2 MIMO and Bluetooth 4.1.[24] It retains the 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage and weighs slightly more at 1.1 oz (31 g).[41][non-primary source needed]
In January 2019, the second-generation Fire TV Stick was re-issued with the updated remote from the 4K model.[31]
Third generation[edit]
In October 2020, two third-generation Fire TV Stick models were released. The Fire TV Stick model includes a remote with TV control buttons where the Fire TV Stick Lite model's remote does not include TV controls. Both models include similar internal hardware as the Fire TV Stick 4K, except for a maximum output resolution of 1080p and only 1 GB of RAM. In 2021, the third-generation Fire TV Stick was re-issued with an updated remote "3rd Gen Alexa Voice Remote".[42]
Fire TV Stick 4K[edit]
In October 2018, Amazon unveiled the Fire TV Stick 4K, codenamed "Mantis", which succeeded the third-generation Fire TV.[43] It is upgraded to a 1.7 GHz quad-core processor and supports 4K output, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, and hardware-accelerated MPEG-2 decoding. It also includes an updated voice remote that contains an infrared emitter and buttons for controlling TV power and volume (which can also be controlled with voice commands). The remote is backward compatible with previous Fire TV models, and also sold separately as an upgrade.[44][45]
Fire TV Stick 4K Max[edit]
On October 7, 2021, Amazon released the Fire TV Stick 4K Max.[46] It includes the updated 3rd gen Alexa Voice Remote, and has Wi-Fi 6 support. It has a 1.8 GHz processor, a 750 MHz GPU, and 2 GB of RAM. It also has Dolby Atmos support.[47]
Fire TV Edition[edit]
Fire TV Edition is the product name applied to smart television sets produced by major television manufacturers that include Amazon Fire OS and the Fire TV interface, licensed from Amazon.[23] They offer basic live television program information and minimal recording capabilities.[22][23] Fire TV Edition television models are available from Best Buy's house brand Insignia, Toshiba (in U.S. and Canadian markets), and JVC and Grundig (in European markets).[23]
Fire TV Recast[edit]
The Fire TV Recast is a digital video recorder that works with an over-the-air antenna to record shows for later viewing on a Fire TV or an Amazon Echo Show device.[25] It is designed for use with over-the-air TV services and is a part of the cord-cutting movement. It was announced in September 2018.
Software[edit]
The Fire TV series runs Fire OS,[48] which is derived from Android Open Source Project source code.[49] It supports voice commands via either a remote control with an embedded microphone, or integrated microphones inside the device (as is the case of the Fire TV Cube), and can also be controlled with Alexa via Amazon Echo smart speakers. The devices support various Amazon-owned services, including Amazon Prime Video, Twitch, Amazon Music, Amazon Silk, Amazon Luna, IMDb TV, as well as other major third-party services such as MyCanal (France only), Netflix, YouTube, YouTube TV, Dailymotion, TED, MX Player, Curiosity Stream, Hulu, Hotstar, Movies Anywhere, Niconico, AbemaTV, Eros Now, YuppTV, Red Bull TV, Philo, AMC+, Disney+, Star+ (Latin America only), Paramount+, BET+, the Showtime app, Noggin, Voot, Pluto TV, Ameba TV, Toon Goggles, Yippee TV, Struum, Vimeo, Jungo+, Shahid, Frndly TV, Tubi, the Fox Soul app, Fox Now, Fox Nation, PokerGO, Viki, Sling TV, Oznoz, Minno, TVPlayer, Zeus Network, Flix Premiere, FilmOn, the Starz app, Discovery+, HBO Max, DirecTV Stream, Vudu, Peacock, NBC Sports Gold, Xumo, Hayu, Xfinity Stream, Craftsy, Night Flight Plus, Dekkoo, Ibakatv, 9Now (Australia only), Stan (Australia only), Videoland (Netherlands only), WWNLive, BritBox, Hallmark Movies Now, the Bally Sports app, Stirr, Shudder, Mubi, Crave (Canada only), RiverTV (Canada only), Allblk, Acorn TV, BBC iPlayer (UK only), ITV Hub (UK only), STV Player (UK only), All 4 (UK and Ireland only), My5 (UK only), NOW (UK, Ireland and Italy only), UKTV Play (UK and Ireland only), FuboTV, DAZN, FITE TV, FloSports, ALTBalaji, Sun NXT, Aha, TVFPlay, Hoichoi, Chorki, Klikk, Plex, the Apple TV app, ZEE5, FunimationNow, Wakanim, VRV, Crunchyroll, Crackle, Pure Flix, SonyLIV, Popcornflix, the NFL TV app, Emby, Jellyfin, MrMC, Spotify, TuneIn, iHeartRadio, Pandora, Tidal, Qello, Audacy, BBC Sounds, AirConsole and others via Amazon Appstore.[32][48][50][51][52][53]

Reception[edit]
Dan Seifert from The Verge reviewed Fire TV on April 4, 2014, giving it an 8.8/10 rating and largely praising its functionality and future potential.[67][68] Dave Smith from ReadWrite wrote, "Fire TV aims to be the cure for what ails TV set-top boxes."[69] GeekWire editor Andy Liu's review is headlined "Amazon's Fire TV sets a new bar for streaming boxes."[70] Ars Technica praised the device for specifications that surpassed competitors, good build quality, and a microphone works very well if you use Amazon content. The reviewer disliked the fact that its media browser puts Amazon content in the front, which makes other applications less convenient to use, limited game selection with many games not optimized, and only 5.16GB of free space, which limits the number of games that can be installed.[71]
Main competitors[edit]
Some notable competitors include Roku, Apple TV, Nvidia Shield TV and Chromecast.
