Amazon launches its first-ever Fire TV series
Plus a new TV stick
Amid its assortment of products, Amazon has always kept its Fire TV lineup relatively simple. The stick is a plug-and-play device that turns a basic screen into a smart TV. However, amid the stick’s proliferation, Amazon has never launched its own TV set. Now, the company is finally cutting out the middleman by releasing its own Amazon Fire TV series.
Fire Omni TV
The new Fire Omni TV series comes in all sorts of sizes: 43-inch, 50-inch, 55-inch, 65-inch, and 75-inch. For its first foray into actual TVs, Amazon wants to cater to a lot of markets. The series offers support for 4K Ultra HD resolution, HDR10, HLG, and Dolby Digital Plus. Further, the two top-tier variants — 65-inch and 75-inch — have smaller bezels and support for Dolby Vision.
As the name implies, the Fire Omni TV sports Amazon’s Alexa assistant. Though most smart TVs have Alexa these days, the Omni series has Alexa natively. It can also seamlessly switch between different Amazon functionalities like Live View Picture-in-Picture which works with your home’s security cameras.
The Fire Omni TV series starts at US$ 409.99.
Fire TV 4-Series
Though not as feature-packed as the Fire Omni series, the Fire TV 4-series offers much of the same Amazon experiences as the aforementioned. The series has three variants: 43-inch, 50-inch, and 55-inch. It offers support for HDR10 and HLG.
The series starts at US$ 369.99.
Fire TV Stick 4K Max
Naturally, Amazon has a new stick up its sleeve. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max improves on its predecessor. The stick features a quad-core 1.8GHz processor, 2GB of RAM, and Wi-Fi 6. In terms of TV features, it supports 4K UHD, HDR, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and Dolby Atmos.
It will sell for US$ 54.99.

LG showcases its latest AI TVs in the Philippines
OLED, Micro RGB, and QNED take the spotlight.
LG Electronics Philippines showcased its latest AI-powered OLED, Micro RGB, and QNED televisions at the LG OLED TV Media Launch on October 30, 2026, at the Ayala Museum in Makati City.
Held under the theme “A Canvas of Possibilities,” the event demonstrated how LG’s latest television technologies can enhance home entertainment, gaming, and digital art experiences.
The showcase featured three television lines: the LG OLED evo AI, LG Micro RGB evo AI, and LG QNED evo AI. Each demonstrated different approaches to picture quality, color reproduction, and everyday viewing.
LG highlights its latest TV technologies
The True Cinema showcase highlighted the picture quality of LG’s latest television lineup. The LG OLED evo AI delivered an immersive viewing experience, while the LG Micro RGB evo AI demonstrated its Triple Crown 100% Color Coverage for vibrant, lifelike visuals.
The LG QNED evo AI also showcased its contrast, color reproduction, and motion capabilities, offering another option for viewers seeking an enhanced entertainment experience.
These televisions build on LG’s broader 2026 AI TV lineup, which the company introduced at IFA 2026 in Berlin, Germany.
Among the technologies highlighted was the α11 AI Processor Gen3, which debuted in the LG OLED evo series and extends to ultra-large Micro RGB evo TVs. The processor enables features such as AI Dual 4K Upscaling for sharper images and AI Sound Pro for more immersive audio.
LG also highlighted personalization features, including Voice ID for tailored content recommendations and AI Concierge for content discovery. LG Shield provides an integrated security system designed to protect user information and privacy.
Gaming and digital art take center stage
Beyond traditional television viewing, LG demonstrated how its displays can serve as entertainment hubs for gaming and digital art.
The Ultimate Gaming zone gave guests a closer look at the smooth gameplay experience offered by LG OLED evo AI technology. The gaming-inspired lounge highlighted how display innovations can make interactive entertainment more immersive.
Meanwhile, the Digital Art showcase featured LG OLED evo AI, LG QNED evo AI, and LG Micro RGB evo AI televisions displaying digital artworks through LG Gallery+.
The exhibit demonstrated how televisions can double as digital canvases, allowing users to bring artwork into their living spaces when they are not watching movies or playing games.
Through the launch, LG presented its latest televisions as more than displays for traditional entertainment, highlighting their potential to complement different interests, lifestyles, and creative pursuits.
“Through this launch, we wanted guests to see these innovations for themselves and imagine how they could bring the same experiences into their own homes,” said Yongwoo Park, Media Solutions Product Director at LG Electronics Philippines.

This pop-up sauna brings the steam room experience into your home
HAZEMOR’s Instant Sauna sets up in about a minute and folds into a closet
A home sauna no longer needs a dedicated room or a permanent spot in your house.
HAZEMOR’s new Instant Sauna is designed to bring the steam room experience into smaller spaces. It comes with a pop-up frame that sets up in about a minute and folds away when the session is over.
The portable indoor steam sauna uses the brand’s QuickFlow semi-automatic frame, which opens without tools or separate poles.
Once the frame is locked and its four support legs are raised, the sauna is ready for its steamer. The 1,300-watt unit has a 3-liter stainless-steel tank. It produces steam in about two minutes with hot water or six to eight minutes with cold tap water.
Inside, the temperature reaches up to 131°F (55°C), with adjustable steam levels and a timer for customizing each session. A remote control lets users change the settings without stepping outside the enclosure.
The design takes a brighter approach to the traditional steam tent. Finished in warm beige and champagne tones, the HAZEMOR Instant Sauna has two transparent ceiling panels under its SKY TOP WINDOWS design, which let natural light into the space.
Its three-layer insulated fabric pairs a water-resistant exterior with a heat-retaining middle layer and a soft interior surface.
With interior dimensions of approximately 43 × 43 inches and 71 inches of headroom, the sauna leaves room to sit comfortably.
It comes with a folding chair and floor mat, along with the steamer, steam hose, remote control, squeegee, and carry bag.
Price, availability
For those looking to expand their setup, HAZEMOR also offers a Red & Near-Infrared Light Kit for an additional US$ 149. It includes three 10-watt tubes that combine 660nm red light and 850nm near-infrared light.
Storage is factored into the design as well. Folded, the sauna measures approximately 41 × 12 × 12 inches, small enough to tuck into a closet or bedroom corner. Assembled, it needs about 47 × 47 inches of floor space and access to a standard household outlet.
The HAZEMOR Instant Sauna is available now in the United States through the brand’s website for US$ 425. An early-bird price of US$ 319 runs from November 3 to 16, 2026.
Each purchase comes with a one-year limited warranty and a 30-day return window from delivery.
