Altice One is an ever-evolving platform that combines 4K video,
high-speed broadband, powerful WiFi, and voice capabilities into a
compact home hub with a personalized user interface, integrated
access to streaming apps, and advanced search via a Bluetooth

will be available directly on Altice One and alongside a user’s
live, on demand, and streaming video services included with Altice
One. Additionally, the Prime Video content will be accessible via
the Altice One voice-activated remote control.

Altice One, which continues to evolve with new features and
functionalities that simplify and improve the user experience, such

their must-see games faster and a refreshed home screen for faster
navigation to popular live content.
This is the second innovative collaboration between Amazon and
Altice USA; the two companies recently partnered on Altice Amplify,
