Amazon’s 3rd-gen Fire TV Cube

[Joe Noodles]

Amazon has unveiled a range of new products at its annual event, including the 3rd-generation Fire TV Cube, a smart speaker and streaming box hybrid.
The new streaming box is available to pre-order from today for $139.99/£139.99, and will be on-sale on 25 October 2022 in the US.
The next generation of the Cube comes with a new octa-core 2.0 GHz processor, which Amazon claims makes the device up to 20% more powerful, and boosts app launch speeds.
This product features both a HDMI-input and output – the previous gen only housed the latter. This means that you can use the Cube with other devices besides your TV, including set-top boxes, Blu-ray players, and more.

Exactly, they keep having sales at discount prices.

Well i say those price are all they are worth with ram of the size in these, other firesticks below the MAX have even less.

 

[sneaker]

A built in lan port would be nice in 2022 for that price. I think I'll stick with my old x92 for now.

I would only have 4gb ram minimum on an Android device tbh.

As far as I can see it still does not [lay music independently from the TV one of the most requested features

 

[avid]

I still wouldn’t buy one tbh.

 

[JonMMM]

Far too expensive for what it is

 

[Ferret]

If they had upgraded the ram to 3/4gb id of bought one when they were on offer.

I dont mind the Fire range but they continually upgrade CPU's but not the size of the ram.

Yes mate i had one for a month or so and passed it on to my grandson. Prefer android boxes running a AndroidTV rom with S905x4 4gb/64gb much quicker in my opinion.
