amazon's latest streaming device is nearly identical to the last-gen model that was once one of our top recommendations, only it features a number of iterative upgrades, including Wi-Fi 6E support and double the storage (16 GB). It can also display widgets and artwork when idle, just like recent TV offerings from Hisense and TCLand you can use it to create your own backgrounds using voice prompts and amazon's ai Art feature.
Like previous models, the second-generation Max also includes support for Dolby Vision (in addition to HDR10 and HDR10 Plus) and Dolby Atmos. The 4K-capable device also continues to offer impressive Alexa integration, allowing you to bypass the remote with very specific commands like “Alexa, switch to ESPN on Sling TV.”
