Spending Winter on the Couch with Amazon Devices

I used to be the kind of person who didn’t care much about TV. I had a tiny little TV that I’d actually bought to use as an external computer monitor and that’s all I needed. Who cares about HD? Who cares about cable?

But then…

My mom gave me her old TV when she upgraded to a larger one at her house. And my tube-watching habits did a complete 180. I found it easier to stay engrossed in a show now that I was watching a bigger screen, and I broadened my streaming horizons to include Hulu, Prime Video, and Twitch along with the Netflix and YouTube I was watching before. I was a goner.

Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K and Amazon Fire TV Recast

My Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K, Amazon Fire TV Recast, and beloved Amazon Echo!

And now that I’ve had the opportunity to add the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K and Fire TV Recast to my arsenal, the likelihood of me leaving the couch in the evenings is pretty much nil.

Amazon Fire Stick 4K

With the Fire TV Stick remote, you can summon Alexa by holding down the microphone button and saying Alexa’s name plus your command. You can ask Alexa to search for titles, play music, use skills like “weather” and “Flash Briefing”—basically anything you might ask your other Alexa devices. And of course, Amazon Fire TV devices pair perfectly with any other Amazon devices you already have.

If you’re like me and hate having to use multiple remotes, you’ll like that this remote has power, volume, and mute buttons to control your TV, sound bar, and receiver.

Fire TV gives you access to all the streaming channels you’re used to, like Prime Video, Netflix, Hulu (including live TV and sports packages if you so choose), Sling, and more. And when you add the Fire TV Recast to the mix, you can also watch and record over-the-air programming with no monthly fees!

 

Amazon Fire TV Recast

The Amazon Fire TV Recast is an unassuming little black box that will look at home with the devices you already have.

 

With the Fire TV Recast, your antenna picks up nearby channels and the device integrates them with Fire TV so that you can use your Alexa-enabled remote or other devices to find live shows and schedule recordings.

You can say things like “Alexa, open Channel Guide” or “Alexa, record ‘Riverdale.’” Fire TV Recast delivers the most reliable video streams over Wi-Fi of any over-the-air DVR so you won’t be constantly frustrated by buffering or fuzzy picture.

Ready to finally cut cable and dive into the streaming life? Shop for your Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K and Fire TV Recast on Amazon! (They make great gifts, too.)

      I love Marvelous Mrs. Maisel! I think I’m enjoying season two as much as or maybe even more than season one!

    This is too awesome! There are some things about it I’d have to research, such as does it take up a lot of data if someone is using satellite internet, can someone use it with satellite internet?

    We just received our Firestick as a gift a few months ago. We love it! I plan to relax this holiday as well.

    Now that the holidays are almost behind us, it’s time for me to catch up on my programs that I put off since this fall. Adding the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K and Fire TV Recast sounds like a good motivator to stay huddled under the covers this winter binge watching all of my favorite shows.

    Awww yeah. I’m like you. I’ll never leave the couch again. Why would I? I have all that and a laptop to work from? Bring on 2019 and some sweet tech!
