I watched most of it, very good. Have to finish it off sometime.
As an aside, I got a replacement Amazon TV box a few weeks ago, the Cube. My old Fire TV was 8 years old and whilst it was 4K you could see it was struggling with the modern UIs on the apps. The Cube also combines an Alexa speaker, so that’s one more box I can get shot of.
The quality of the picture is incredible, we even watch live TV through iPlayer or ITV Hub etc. I always thought the HD picture via FreeSat was very good but it’s rubbish compared to the Fire TV. I can only assume there’s some clever upscaling going on and whilst you can’t add detail, there’s some sort of processing enhancing things. Of course content like anything Attenborough, The Mandalorian and Obi Wan Kenobi etc. are 4K these days.
The Sound Bar is being properly dealt with (we used to lose it if you paused for too long, it went back to the TV speakers) and the voice control is a lot better and gives limited control of the TV too without installing the Panasonic “skill” which was a bit crap anyway. It comes with an IR sender, so you can use it to control any other IR remote capable equipment you have.
They’re normally £100, but I got it for £70 in one of the flash sales Amazon have now and again.
