Amazon has moved into the 4K content with a new fire TV box and ultra-high definition content through its video streaming service. They claim that this has been the best selling box on the market in the UK and Germany, beating Apple. Also, the new Fire TV is 75% faster and handles 4K content; it has a more efficient compression system for full HD content which allows many users to stream 1080p video even with poor connection. Furthermore, the company had released a new games controller with headphones and voice search support, claiming to have the largest games library of any media streaming service with over 3,000 apps, games and channels available through the amazon apps store.
- Connection speeds of at least 15Mbps will be requires for 4K content.
- Ultra-HD content
- The new Fire TV costs £79.99
The box has instruction videos and Amzaon's built in live person tech support called MayDay, which guides users through features and settings via the phone and with a remote control.
In my opinion, i argue that amazons new Fire TV is very useful as it allows consumers even with poor connection to watch movies or games in ultra-HD content. Its so annoying having to watch them in poor quality with poor connection and so this new TV solves all our problems. However, it only allows the audieces to watch content from the amazon app and so movies or games which you really want to watch may not be in their store. But overall, it is a good invention to sell.
