Arguably one of the most annoying parts about is losing the remote. It can have you flipping over couch cushions and losing all trust in your loved ones when they say they aren’t sitting on it. 

You can cut this out of your life with an Amazon Fire TV device, which allows you to manage your TV with voice commands. Right now, you can save up to $100 on Fire TV devices at Amazon.

The Fire TV Stick is the most basic of the devices; You simply plug it into your TV’s HDMI port and gain access to streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, and more. You can also access websites and apps. The Stick comes with an Alexa remote, which gives you the ability to perform Alexa skills and operate your TV with your voice. Normally the Fire TV Stick costs $49.99, but you can grab it on sale for $39.99.

If you want to take your viewing experience up a notch, check out the Fire TV Cube. The Cube is basically like having an Echo device that also gives you access to streaming services and internet browsing. It has a built-in speaker that allows you to check the weather, listen to the news, and control other smart home devices. The Cube can hear you from across the room (in a helpful way, not a creepy one), so you’re truly able to go hands-free. Usually the Fire TV Cube would cost you $119.99, but it’s currently on sale for $79.99.

One qualm about ditching your cable box for a streaming device is the loss of DVR capabilities. The Fire TV Recast works as a complement to other Fire TV devices and requires an HD antenna for access to live TV for recording. Once you have all of the necessary equipment, you can schedule shows to record and watch them on any compatible Amazon device (Echo Show for example) and on your phone or tablet. Regularly $279.99, you can snag the Fire TV Recast for $229.99. 

If you want to eliminate the need for an external device, opt for this Toshiba with Fire TV built in. It delivers true-to-life 4K UHD picture quality with stunning clarity, contrast, and colors. All of the streaming and browsing add-ons are integrated natively into the TV and you’re able to use Alexa voice commands with the included remote. Normally a 55-inch Toshiba Fire TV Edition would cost you $450, but it’s currently on sale for $349.99.
