Dear Customers,

We are excited to bring you Amazon Fire TV.

Introducing Amazon Fire TV: Easy and instant access to Netflix, Prime Instant Video, Spotify and much more

Fire TV is a tiny box that plugs into your HDTV for easy and instant access to Netflix, Prime Instant Video, Demand 5, Spotify, Sky News, Curzon Home Cinema, YouTube, low-cost video rentals and much more. With access to thousands of TV episodes and movies, plus your favourite subscriptions and streaming services, you can watch what you want, when you want. If you’re a Prime member, enjoy unlimited instant streaming of thousands of movies and TV shows, including exclusives like VikingsExtantRipper Street, and Alpha House.

Fire TV has voice search that actually works. The old way of searching with a TV remote—scrolling and clicking one letter at a time on an alphabet grid—is painful. With Fire TV you simply speak the title, actor or genre into the remote and you’re done.

Fire TV may be tiny on the outside, but it has huge hardware specs on the inside. It has a powerful quad-core processor, dedicated GPU, 2 GB of memory, and dual-band, dual-antenna Wi-Fi. With a fast, fluid interface, high definition 1080p video, and Dolby Digital Plus surround sound, Fire TV looks—and sounds—amazing. We also added an exclusive new feature called ASAP that predicts what movies and TV episodes you’ll want to watch and gets them ready to stream instantly. No one likes waiting for videos to buffer.

As a bonus, we also added games. There are over three hundred titles to explore on Fire TV including blockbuster games likeMinecraftThe Walking DeadMonsters University and Amazon exclusive Sev Zero, as well as great free games. To enhance gaming even further, we’re also introducing our newAmazon Fire Game Controller—a dedicated wireless game controller designed to take you deeper into the action, with even more titles to enjoy.

Our customers in the US are loving both Fire TV and Fire Game Controller, and we are thrilled to now introduce them to the UK.

— The Amazon Fire TV Team.

P.S. We think everyone will love Fire TV, but it’s especially great for Prime members, who can enjoy instant, unlimited streaming of thousands of movies and TV shows with Prime Instant Video. As a thank you to both new and existing Prime members, we’re excited to offer Fire TV for just £49, for five days only.
