Amazon's Echo Show 15 now doubles as a Fire TV
You can use Alexa to open apps or stream specific content, and use either a paired Alexa Voice Remote or the controls in the mobile Fire TV app to navigate without smudging the screen. However, there's also a virtual remote on the Echo Show 15 itself. You won't need a separate controller for those apps that don't recognize touch.
The Echo Show 15 normally costs $250, but Amazon is sweetening the deal to mark the Fire TV launch. A new"limited time" bundle includes both the display and an Alexa Voice Remote. Existing Echo Show owners, meanwhile, can buy the remote for $10 through the touchscreen. As we explained in our review, the Echo Show 15 still isn't for everyone. The camera and speakers are merely so-so, and there's still only a limited range of widgets. With that said, the Fire TV expansion may go a long way toward justifying the design. This may be a viable option for a kitchen or bedroom TV, particularly if you'd also like to see the family calendar or the weather.
