Are you still paying for cable? Ugh. It’s time to get your home entertainment system up to date. Amazon’s Fire TV Cube, which is currently on sale, could be just the thing you need.

The newest member of the Fire TV is on sale for $89.99, $30 off its listed $119.99 price, through Aug. 25.

At its core, the Cube is a streaming player in line with the other Fire TV streamers. If you have a 4K TV, it can also output content in glorious 4K, as long as the service has 4K content available. Where the Cube stands out is thanks to voice controls.

Hook up the Cube to a compatible TV, cable or satellite box, sound bar, and/or A/V receiver. Once set up, you’ll be able to issue voice commands to operate each device as you’d like. This includes turning the TV on and off, changing the channel, and adjusting the volume. You also get all the traditional features you’d find with Echo devices, like news and weather updates and music.

With features like that, Amazon clearly wants to be the center of your home theater set-up. And considering the flexibility it provides, it’s hard to argue against the appeal of the Amazon Fire TV Cube
