Amazon Fire TV Alexa Voice Remote Pro – Review

Lost Your Remote Again? Make Movie Night Easier.

Searching under the couch cushions for a missing remote can turn a relaxing movie nite into an irritating one. The Amazon Fire TV Alexa Voice Remote Pro is built for making everyday entertainment easier with a built-in remote finder, backlit buttons and voice control.
The remote finder is the best feature. If you misplace your remote nearby, you can ask a compatible Alexa-enabled device to find it. Another way to find the remote is by using the Alexa app or Fire TV app to make the remote emit a sound, so you don’t have to go around the whole room looking for it.
Another welcome upgrade are the motion-activated backlit buttons. Or simply pick up the remote in a dark room and its buttons glow so you can locate the controls without turning on the lights. Whether you’re watching a late-night movie or adjusting the volume during a show, this feature makes life more convenient.
With a dedicated Alexa voice button, you can use your voice to search for entertainment and control supported Fire TV functions. The remote also features TV power, volume and mute controls for compatible equipment to help reduce multiple remotes. The remote finder also has a practical limitation: it helps locate a remote that is nearby and able to respond. It cannot track a remote that has been taken far away.
Overall, the Alexa Voice Remote Pro is designed for people who want a more convenient way to navigate Fire TV, especially those who regularly misplace their remote or watch television in low-light environments.
