Then, what is the difference between the fire stick and the fire cube?

Simply put: The Fire TV Cube and Fire TV Stick 4K support 4K resolutions and HDR protocols. The Fire TV Stick does not. If you have a TV that maxes out at 1080p, the standard Fire TV Stick is fine; otherwise, you'll definitely want one of the other two devices.

Likewise, does Fire TV Cube work with TV? The Fire TV Cube can basically do everything an Echo and Fire TV/Fire TV Stick can do, plus a few extra things. You can control compatible TVs, soundbars, set-top boxes, and A/V receivers. You can tune in to live TV channels through your existing cable or satellite service.

Also, is the Fire TV Cube worth it?

To help with that very thing, the Amazon Fire TV home screen has a 4K HDR row, so it's worth taking advantage of it. Well, the Fire TV Cube does a good job working with your 4K TV to upscale them for the higher resolution, but you'll still see a difference.

Is the Fire TV Cube an Alexa?

Fire TV Cube is the first hands-free streaming media player with Alexa. From across the room, just ask Alexa to turn on the TV, dim the lights, and play what you want to watch. With far-field voice recognition, eight microphones, and beamforming technology, Fire TV Cube hears you from any direction.
