Cyber Week is still going strong, but not for much longer. Amazon is currently discounting its Fire TV Cube by $40 for the holidays — leaving a sale price of only $80. It’s time to grab those presents if you want to guarantee shipping by Christmas. Cyber Week deals has got you covered.

Amazon’s Fire media devices, including the Fire TV Stick and Fire TV Cube, are ways of connecting your streaming devices straight to your TV. Many smart TVs have a lot of these features included in them, or you can hook up a video game console or certain cable boxes. But if you have a regular TV and want the cleanest setup available, the Fire TV Cube is a great option.

Besides letting you stream Netflix, Hulu, ESPN, and dozens of other apps (provided you have the subscriptions), Amazon’s Fire TV Cube comes with some other snazzy features. The Cube has Alexa built-in, so it’s also a smart home device. You can ask Alexa questions, get the weather, and set your schedule all through voice commands — the TV doesn’t even need to be on. But when it’s movie night, “Alexa, dim the lights, turn on the TV, and play Star Wars.” You’re watching Rey and Kylo battle without lifting a finger. The Cube is the top of the line for Fire devices. You have the ability to stream fantastic 4K Ultra HD movies. There’s no point in having a 4K TV if you can’t stream the quality they demand.

The Fire TV Cube is a great addition to any smart home. If you already have Alexa-enabled devices, or even another smart homes assistant like an Amazon Echo, the Cube will integrate into all of them. Tell the Echo Dot in your bedroom to turn on the living room TV, and the Cube plugged into that TV will get the message. Ask the Cube to show you a feed of your front food camera and it will pop up right on your TV screen. It’s also the perfect gift for a significant other or a roommate — then you can use it, too!
