16 gb would make a lot of difference if you want to use builds

Well at least that’s one rumour confirmed. I wonder if the RAM will be 3 instead of 2 also as romoured. That would make it even more useable. A bit of speed increase on the Chip should help as well. Tx for this.

Bumping to 3gb ram would be a reach if they’re keeping the $60 price point.

You never know though. The unconfirmed bumps in SoC speed, storage, and wifi seems logical. New remote is a good idea - since it’s just imported from an existing platform.

You are correct 3GB for $60 is a definate stretch, but I am not only a dreamer but an eternal optimist. I believe it will remain at 2 as that bit of info wasn’t given with the size increase of storage. Then digging into the programming and added simplicity of functions will be a blast. News at 11. :wink: :crazy_face: Thanks @TXRon for always being on top of this stuff for all of us.
Have fun and STREAM ON!!!

…plus if it did bump the ram, it would be an awkward placement in it’s fire lineup, as their flagship cube would have less system ram.

It would be a marketing mess.

The 2 gb ram will work great with the processor bump to 2.0

IMO, the 16gb is a pretty big deal regardless.

Lol. Not me. I’m waiting for the hands on users comments. I made that mistake with the KM2 and Onn. Maybe a couple of months from now.

The real kicker for customers who purchase a new Fire TV-branded streaming player or smart TV will get a six-month subscription to MGM+ at no extra charge.

Fire OS 8 - I think I’ll wait until they get some of the bugs worked out there!

I’m also waiting. I see some stuff regarding new functions, but most of that just seemed to be fluff. That’s why I’m going to give it a couple of months untill the experts like Troy, or others, who can dig into the inner workings of the Fire OS 8 and give us an idea of what’s under the hood, report back. I do know the 16GB storage is huge for me as I don’t do recording so that’s plenty to run apps for testing.
