There’s finally a box that lets you control any TV with Amazon Alexa

Amazon Alexa is taking over the world, and you don’t even need an Amazon device to use Alexa anymore. Just recently we showed you 5 hot Alexa-enabled devices that aren’t made by Amazon, and now we’ve got another great gadget to add to the list. The Blumoo Smart Control is a tiny little box that turns your Android device, iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch into a universal remote that can control anything and everything in your home that uses a remote. But it gets even better — combine the Blumoo with an Amazon Echo, Echo Dot or another similar device and you can use Alexa voice commands to control your TV!

Some key notes from the Amazon product page:
