Amazon's personal voice assistant will feature on selected Hisense 4K TVs, including the brand's 100in Laser 4K TV.

It’s been a whole year since we heard Amazon’s now-ubiquitous voice assistant was to be implemented into TVs by US companies Element, Westinghouse and Seiki. It's been a similar length of time since we decided the same innovation must spread to TV brands across the pond too.

Well, 2017 saw Google Assistant voice control arriving on some Sony TVs -since then LG has announced its 2018 TVs will also feature Google’s personal assistant. At IFA 2017 Toshiba announced it's working on an Alexa-supported range too.
