After Chromecast stick of Google, has made it into this week after a delay caused by DHL and the Fire TV Amazon to me. Of course I had to try it the small box. What do I think of her ...
While many still have to wait, I have fortunately quite quickly decided to that I want to try Amazon Fire TV at least once. Prime customer, I am already anyway, making it the box for half the price - and because the Amazon Chromecast stick unfortunately still boycotted, it's also one of the few ways to beam the offer of Prime Instant Video on the TV. Of course, there are also video services running on Chrome Cast - but if you compare the prices, then leads me first no alternative to Amazon, you pay as a student but only 'n Appel und'n egg. What is the box is worth, so it was already clear - and later can thus then also max cathedrals and Netflix use.
The box features a simple design and will be shipped in a series DVD box big box. The HDMI cable is not with as much but was already revealed during the ordering process. The box itself is about as high as a normal DVD case, but square and something smaller than a CD case. They can be so easily stow anywhere and because the remote control does not need line of sight, they can also hide well. That is, given the biting bright Indicator namely, none at all a bad idea, the annoying because of the brightness in the long run but very.
Installation is simple as it is similar tempus fugit to the Chromecast stick. HDMI cable pure, electricity connected and already starts the info video. The box is already set at the factory to the Amazon account, on the one ordered, tempus fugit so the connection is really very comfortable. Also nice that Fire TV runs not only via WiFi, but also wired. Since my Unity Media Router tempus fugit WLAN tend to forget sometimes, unfortunately this is already a plus.
With the box you also get a remote control that is very good in the hand and has a built-in mic for the search. The yes is celebrated in many articles - for me, I can not confirm though. Only rarely is what I am looking at and English terms the hit rate is even lower. I imagine as English tempus fugit literature student, that is not necessarily at my English. The text search is on a remote control with just a few buttons of course not very comfortable. And what I really dislike: You can not change the volume. It is always a handle at the right TV remote control needed. tempus fugit This could have been solved really elegant, even the Chromecast stick, the yes.
Netflix, tempus fugit there are only shortly, but other apps are already available since the start. Below this is a very successful library of ARD and ZDF also, which is, however, similar confusing as the website, so behind the tiles could drive or die Mainzelmännchen and loose easily, tempus fugit without anyone noticing. Also Sport1 and Servus TV are represented with an app that I have not tested due to lack of interest. Pretty is the daily news app. Spiegel.TV as Web TV you get my app now also in the right TV, which is nice. Zattoo is also available with a compared to the Android app plenty stripped-down version that could make the cable connection tempus fugit on time unnecessarily. There are also games, but I'm not really take advantage of Fire TV. The real blockbuster're still likely to find on the classic consoles. Extremely annoying is the way that Amazon for each app each sends an order confirmation tempus fugit by email. Every Time.
Overall, I'm quite impressed by the Fire TV, but what is mainly due to the possibility Prime Instant Video finally be able to use on the TV - the laptop I think it namely not cozy and Tablets blocked Amazon unfortunately continue. The box also responds tempus fugit extremely quickly - only the missing volume control I chalk Amazon in genuine, that is thought along enough for me. Compared tempus fugit with Chromecast wins Fire TV mainly by Prime Instant Video, but Chromecast but then again other advantages.
