Amazon has long offered its own lineups of smart TVs powered by Fire OS. These products usually boast plenty of useful features, decent picture quality, and a good value for money. Now, Amazon is refreshing its Fire TV Omni Mini-LED and Fire TV 4 Series. Plus, the company launched the powerful Fire TV Soundbar Plus cinematic sound system.
Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED brings a premium cinematographic experience
The Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED is the best TV the brand has ever launched. It boasts a 55″ QLED Mini-LED display that supports 4K resolution, a refresh rate of up to 144Hz, and 1,400 nits of peak brightness with up to 1,344 dimming zones. The TV also supports Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+ Adaptive for better picture quality on compatible content. Gaming fans will be happy to find support for features like AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, VRR (variable refresh rate), and a low latency mode.
Amazon integrated AI-powered Intelligent Picture technology to automatically optimize the image. The system analyzes the lighting conditions of the room and the image on the screen to tweak parameters such as brightness and color temperature in real-time. When the TV is idle, Ambient Experience will come into play. This feature turns artwork into attractive and vibrant screensavers. You’ll also find the AI Art option to generate screensavers using the power of artificial intelligence.
To offer an immersive audio experience, the TV integrates a 2.1 Dolby Atmos system with two speakers and two built-in subwoofers. The company promises that the speakers can deliver deep bass and a wide dynamic range. For wireless connectivity, the Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED supports Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2. It will also be compatible with the Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids (ASHA) protocol, enabling simultaneous audio playback on the TV and hearing aids.
Amazon Fire TV 4 Series, the affordable option
If you are looking for a more affordable smart TV, the Amazon Fire TV 4 Series may be what you are looking for. The new TVs have the “core features” you need to get good image quality without spending too much. It boasts a 4K screen with support for a 60Hz refresh rate, HDR10, HLG, and Dolby Digital Plus. It is available in 43-inch, 50-inch, and 55-inch variants. Voice control lets you manage both TV features and your Alexa-compatible smart home devices.
Fire TV Soundbar Plus Series for an immersive audio experience
If you’re looking to upgrade your smart TV’s audio, Amazon has you covered too. The company announced the Fire TV Soundbar Plus series of products featuring a 3.1-channel all-in-one soundbar. It offers support for Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and DTS TruVolume, promising crisp, powerful audio. The company claims the soundbar can reproduce a wide frequency range, so bass should be deep, too.
The soundbar features four preset listening modes to match what you’re listening to. You’ll find dedicated “Movie,” “Music,” “Sports,” and “Night” modes. Plus, you can complement it with a new wireless subwoofer and more wireless surround speakers. You can choose to buy the soundbar alone, the soundbar + subwoofer, or the soundbar + subwoofer + two surround speakers in bundles.
