Amazon Prime Big Deal Days haven’t officially kicked off yet, but we’re starting to see some great early-bird offers. This 50-inch 4-Series 4K Amazon Fire TV is just $280 — 38% down from the usual $450 — but just like Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, you need to be a Prime member to get in on this deal. This big TV’s 60Hz LED screen delivers amazing, vibrant color and crystal-clear quality for sports and action movies, streaming, and gaming with its 4K Ultra HD resolution (3840 x 2160p). It has all of the best streaming apps built in with Fire TV OS, along with Alexa to control your TV and also to ask about the weather, sports scores, news, and more. See at Amazon The 4-Series 4K Amazon Fire TV is a powerful entertainment device all on its own. The highly intuitive and clearly designed homepage lets you easily navigate between apps including Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Disney+, and more. Live TV and built-in video games via Amazon Luna are also easy to find and enjoy. Should you need to expand the entertainment power of your Amazon Fire TV, there are three HDMI 2.0 ports and one HDMI 2.1 with eARC, an ethernet port, and a USB port. Gaming consoles are right at home with the Amazon Fire TV, where the rapid 60 fps refresh rate lets you play your favorite games with minimal lag. Calling Fire TV OS a “smart” TV is an understatement. A simple press of a button on the remote engages Alexa, and you can avoid endless channel surfing by simply asking Alexa to put on what you want to watch, when you want to watch it. And since the 4-Series Amazon TV has access to over 1.5 million movies and TV episodes, chances are pretty good that Alexa will be able to grant your viewing wish. And if you have the other Alexa-compatible devices, your TV remote can also perform other smart-home tasks like dimming your lights or answering your front-door camera. Amazon is constantly enhancing and updating both Alexa and Fire TV OS, and they’re pushing out software updates on the fly — guaranteed for four years — so you don’t suddenly find yourself with an obsolete TV. Gentle reminder: You need to be an Prime member to get the 50-inch Amazon 4-Series 4K Fire TV for $280, otherwise you’re paying the full-freight $450 price. This deal alone is worth signing up for Prime, but don’t forget that Amazon Prime Big Deal Days are right around the corner. See at Amazon
