  • Easy to use, fast, good WiFi plus Ethernet, plays games, competitive price
  • No support for USB flash drives or media servers. No web browser
  • As we've come to expect from Amazon, Fire TV is a well thought out, easy to use and pleasant product. It's backed by a name that many folks trust, and their customer support and purchasing systems are top notch. Amazon's video library is decent, and s...

  • Fast performance, Impressive list of apps, even at launch, Voice search is convenient, fast and accurate
  • Voice search doesn't work within apps, Onscreen keyboard is offensively bad, Inconsistent gaming experience, Carousel UI doesn't work as well on Fire TV as it does on tablets, Many apps and games are buggy ports from other platforms
  • The Fire TV is a compelling proposition, so long as you're already locked into the Amazon ecosystem. It's fast, powerful and priced in line with its higher-end competition. The addition of a single game controller for $40 gives access to gaming that doesn...

  • Device specs run circles around the nearest Android-driven competition, Build quality and design of hub, remote, and gamepad are sleek, If you want to find Amazon-hosted content like videos and games, the microphone gets the job done
  • Media browsing puts all Amazon content front-and-center, making Hulu, Netflix, and other apps less convenient, particularly since they can't tap into microphone search, Launch game selection ranges from uninspired to wholly unoptimized
  • Putting money where the buttons areIf you have other systems' controllers and want to save a few bucks, you might be in luck. Sony's DualShock 3 didn't play nice, but we were able to pair DualShock 4 controllers with only slight issues. Even better, our w...

  • Effective voice search function, Powerful quad-core processor, ASAP feature loads movies for instant playback, HDMI CEC functionality
  • Voice search and watchlists not functional for all services, Limited on-demand video apps
  • Fire TV is a solid performer, but it needs more content and services, and a global search option, to make it a hit....

  • Impressive hardware specs lead to a lagfree experience, Voice search works as advertised, Gaming with the FireTV goes beyond what anyone else can offer
  • Limited internal storage, Gaming controller is an extra $40 on a device is already at the top of the price range, No killer feature to make it a must have
  • Amazon has put together an impressive package with FireTV, offering specs to rival last year’s hero phones and positively dwarfing the competition in the streaming market. The voice search is unique and works well and the FireTV’s gaming capabilities f...

  • Fire TV is a first-gen product, and it feels it. For all the clear benefits - the fast processor, ease of setup, accurate Voice Search, and solid picture quality - there are still glitches. The UI can be confusing, and searching by voice ignores the vas...

  • Great content selection, Can play games well, Competitive $99 price
  • Voice search only works with Amazon content, Not all games are optimized well for the controller, Content support nonexistent for non-U.S. users
  • The Amazon Fire TV brings all of the company's content ecosystem to the living room for just $99. This is what Google TV should have been...
