From voice remote controls to adapters and even keyboards, there are a myriad of accessories that can enhance your Fire TV experience.
1. CaseBot Silicone Case
As for the rest of the design, the case features tidy cutouts for the interactive buttons, while the back side touts a honeycomb pattern which offers a nice grip. So even if your hands are oily, you will still be able to hold the remote with ease. More notably, the case is shockproof too. So you don’t have to worry about your kids tossing the remote around either. Of course, you will have to contend with more cables if you use an ethernet adapter. Not to forget you will have to invest in a high-quality ethernet cable as well. However, if you’re all about streaming at the best quality, it’s highly recommended to invest in an Ethernet Adapter.
3. Mission Cables USB Power Cable
One of the biggest advantages of using the cable is that it eliminates the need for a separate power adapter. This is particularly useful for those who have limited outlet space. You could even deploy the accessory if you want to reduce the number of cords and cables in your setup. Speaking of which, the cable is adequately long, so you should be able to use it without any hassles – just plug one end into your Fire TV and the other end into a USB port on your TV. One thing to note is that the Fire TV Stick requires a power input of 5V/1000mA. However, if you have a budget TV with a USB 2.0 port, in most cases it will not be able to deliver the desired power output. This can cause your Fire TV to become slow or unresponsive when used with the cable. While the company claims to have a Power Boost circuitry to provide excess power, this may or may not work depending on your TV’s make and model. As such, it’s advised to use the gadget with TVs that have a USB 3.0 port.
4. iPazzPort Mini Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard
Speaking of which, you also get multimedia function keys with the device. The keyboard also comes with a white backlight for use in low-light conditions. It also features a built-in battery, which can be charged via the remote’s USB Type-C port.
5. Alexa Voice Remote Pro
The remote also comes with a dedicated headphone button to pull up the Bluetooth menu and pair devices seamlessly. Speaking of buttons, you also get two customizable buttons with the remote. You can program them to launch your favorite apps and TV channels, or even perform certain Alexa commands.
