Amazon brings its Fire TV system to televisions along with Alexa

In addition, the Alexa assistant is also part of this equation. All televisions will bring with them a remote control with a microphone with which to interact with the virtual assistant Alexa. The deal has been carried out and new Element televisions will be available soon.

Four models with Fire TV

It is a total of four models, between 43 and 65 inches, which will have Fire TV and the assistant Alexa. It is a most interesting package. The Alexa wizard offers numerous functions that make it a great tool to consider. From internet connection, downloading games and applications to creating a content guide, it has many possibilities for users. If we add to this the presence of Fire TV, it is a winning combination without a doubt.

The televisions will have the Fire TV Edition 4K TV Lineup. All models are currently available to reserve on Amazon. The interesting thing is that they all bear the name of Amazon. None are named after Element, the manufacturer. Although it is a movement with logic, since Amazon is a brand with greater confidence and more recognizable. Prices range from $ 449 for the cheapest to $ 899 for the most expensive. They will be available starting June 14, in the United States at least.
