On June 21st, Amazon is releasing the device that will allow you enjoy all your favorite content in the living room or bedroom without ever having to touch a remote–Fire TV Cube. The tiny Fire TV Cube is basically a new container that combines a Fire TV with Alexa voice support to make hands-free streaming box that delivers vivid 4K Ultra HD up to 60 fps and HDR picture quality along with the audio clarity of Dolby Atmos. The eight built-in far field microphones make sure Alexa can hear you from any direction when you’re telling her to turn on the TV, fire up episodes of The Grand Tour or get your daily briefing. You can also use the new device to control the rest of your home entertainment system if the devices are compatible (the supported devices list is quite expansive), which means the only thing you’re going to have to worry about is opening the door for the delivery guy on weekends.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
