But you'll need to add it to your basket before midnight

Want to supercharge your streaming set-up without buying a brand-new Fire TV Stick?

Amazon's latest site-wide sale has the solution.


The Alexa Voice Remote Pro replaces the remote control that shipped in the box with your Fire TV Stick and adds several clever new features you'd expect from the most popular Sky TV set-top boxes, like Sky Q and Sky Glass.

Usually £34.99, the popular accessory has dropped to £19.99 — its lowest ever price.

Why should you switch to this feature-packed remote control? First up, the Alexa Voice Remote Pro has a built-in speaker, so you can ask AI assistant Alexa to "find my remote” and it'll emit a ring — like a pair of AirPods, or the redesigned remote that ships with the latest set-top boxes from Sky TV.

If you spend hours hunting for a lost remote under the sofa cushions, this could be worth the upgrade alone.

Upgrade your existing Fire TV Stick with Pro remote

Bolster your current Fire TV-powered Smart TV or Fire TV Stick with this all-singing, all-dancing remote control. It sports customisable buttons that can be set to control lightbulbs in your home, launch your favourite app, and anything else you can think of! There's also a built-in speaker, so you can ask Alexa to play a sound whenever you misplace the remote down the back of the sofa

This clever accessory works with all recent Fire TV Stick and can also be paired with a Smart TV that's powered by the Fire TV operating system, like those built by Amazon, Panasonic, and TCL. Earlier this week, Amazon confirmed that its latest flatscreen Smart TVs have been upgraded to support Freely.

This isn't the first time that Amazon has slashed the cot of its Pro-grade Fire TV remote, but until this year, the best-ever discount cut the price down to £22.99.

During the Black Friday sale, Amazon cut the all-singing, all-dancing remote to its lowest ever price — and today, it's price-matched the Voice Remote Pro to that record discount.

As well as this much-loved remote (it boasts an average rating of 4.4 on Amazon from a dizzying 2,100 reviews) Amazon has also unveiled price drops to a number of its popular Fire TV Stick and Fire TVs too.

What makes the Alexa Voice Remote Pro for Fire TV so special?

Unlike the standard Fire TV remote control included in the box with your set-top box, the premium Alexa Voice Remote Pro has a motion-activated backlight that illuminates the buttons in dimly lit rooms.

This is something that Sky introduced with its newer Sky Glass and Sky Stream boxes, which both ship with an all-new remote.

As well as a backlight behind the keypad to make it easy to work out what button you need — even with the curtains closed for movie night, Amazon has fitted this Pro-grade remote control with two customisable buttons. These can be assigned to your favourite channels, apps or an Alexa command.

With a single tap, you'll be able to launch an app like BBC iPlayer, Netflix, or Disney+ or trigger an Alexa command to dim the lights, summon a live view from a Ring video doorbell, or play a radio station. If you've got several Alexa-compatible smart home gadgets, this could prove especially powerful.

Voice Remote Pro also has universal TV controls. Without picking up another remote, you'll be able to adjust the volume, channel surf with dedicated channel buttons, and switch off your television too.

It's worth checking your current Fire TV remote as some pricier models ship with a version of the Alexa remote equipped with some universal remote functionality, although you won't find the customisable shortcut buttons on any other model.

Amazon has fitted its remote with a Headphone button that summons an on-screen Bluetooth menu to help you pair wireless earbuds or headphones as fast as possible.

Unlike remote controls from Roku, which come equipped with a 3.5mm audio port to plug-in headphones to the remote, you'll need to rely on Bluetooth with Fire TV. But for those who want to watch a blockbuster late at night without disturbing family members or neighbours, this is a helpful new addition for streamers.
