high speed HDMI cable and a simple remote Works with popular voice assistants: Enjoy easy voice control with Siri, Alexa, or Hey Google
Pros & Cons
Both voice systems let you easily search, launch apps, and control playback (fast forward, pause, etc.) with your voice, but Fire TV also lets you do everything Alexa does, including controlling smart home devices, getting the weather forecast, And answering phone questions, complete with on-screen results. Alexa's voice is also echoed through the TV speakers.
Roku players work the same way as Alexa and Google Home/Google Nest speakers, but not to the same effect - you have to remember to say "Roku" at the end of every command ("OK Google, start Hulu on Roku"). But if you already own a Google speaker and want to use it to control your TV, Fire TV isn't an option.
