Save big on Amazon's Fire TV Stick with the all-new Alexa Voice Remote

Share This Post

SAVE $14: The third-gen Fire TV Stick that comes with a revamped Alexa Voice Remote is on sale on Amazon for just $25.99 as of Oct. 4. (That’s 35% off its $39.99 MSRP.)


It’s about that time already: Amazon is rolling out some Black Friday-worthy discounts on some of its devices as part of an early holiday kick-off sale.

Among the absolute best deals is a 35% markdown on the third-generation Fire TV Stick, which includes the updated Alexa Voice Remote that came out this spring. It usually retails for $39.99, but as of Oct. 4, you’ll pay just $25.99 — that’s its lowest price to date.

Initially introduced last fall alongside the Fire TV Stick Lite, this iteration of the standard Fire TV Stick is a 1080p media player that’s ideal for making older TVs smarter. It looks pretty dang similar to the second-gen model from 2019 — big flash drive vibes, IMO — though Amazon’s equipped it with a 1.7 GHz quad-core processor for 50% more power.

Other “clutch” additions include 60fps streaming and HDR compatibility, which make it better capable of streaming sports (and other fast-paced content), wrote Mashable tech reporter Alex Perry; Dolby Atmos support is just the cherry on top.

But that’s not even the fun part: When Amazon quietly reissued the dongle past spring, it threw in an upgraded Alexa Voice Remote with a microphone, dedicated TV controls, and preset shortcuts for all the big streaming apps (Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video). That, combined with its faster processor, was “enough to preserve its status as the best media streamer for 1080p TVs,” according to our pals over at PCMag, who gave it a coveted Editor’s Choice Award not too long ago.
