Amazon’s new Fire TV Stick 4K comes with an actually good remote
Publisher description: Amazon’s new Fire TV Stick 4K is slimmer and faster, but its biggest upgrade may be the thing you’ll actually hold in your hand: a redesigned remote that’s easier to use, especially in the dark.

Automated excerpt
No more blue Alexa button, a home button you can feel in the dark, a button for adding favorites, and a new shape that makes it more comfortable to hold in the hand. That was the case with the older remote, which featured a prominent, blue Alexa voice button at the top center. The 4K Stick joins the full lineup, which also includes an HD Stick, a 4K “Max” Stick (faster, more storage), and the Fire TV Cube.
