Amazon Fire TV devices should abandon Android for Linux in 2025

In particular, Amazon should not update current Fire television aircraft with Vega, Lowpass reported today.

Amazon does not say it publicly, but it would be intelligent that it has the operating system used in its owner streaming devices. Having total control over the operating system carrying out streaming sticks, fire boxes and televisions would give Amazon a stronger basis on one of the fastest growth consumer technology markets. The search for recurring income on sales of hardware units, actors in the television industry focused on software, and operating system operators contain success in the monetization of advertisements, monitoring and services.
Vega would also give Amazon greater flexibility and power in the integration of Alexa +, the new vocal assistant generating that it is desperate to monetize, with its streaming devices. Due to the potential of generative AI to provide precious intelligent television capacities, such as suggesting content based on viewers’ conversation requests, firefighters can be one of Amazon’s best plans to earn money from your AI assistant.
The reduction in dependence on Google could also help Amazon extend its streaming activity. In 2022, Amazon accused Google of preventing Android partners from creating third -party televisions. Shortly after, the protocol reported that Amazon and Google had concluded an agreement allowing certain television OEMs, such as Hissense, to make fire televisions. Google and Amazon have never publicly confirmed such an agreement, but an owner operating system would help Amazon break with all expectations that could have been defined by Google.
Finally, the execution of Android on streaming devices is delivered with a useless raw, because the code required for smartphones is not necessary in devices such as smart televisions.
Lowpass cited three anonymous sources which said that Amazon will announce Tuesday Vega OS for TVS during its event of devices planned for New York. However, Amazon should announce Vega before, but this is not the case.
