Hi.


The 55 inch version of the fire tv edition Insignia is accessible. But
Insignia is a Best Buy brand and not all of them are Fire Tv Edition.


Yes, if it's not a Fire Tv Edition, then you should be able to get some 
accessibility from it using a Fire Stick 4k or Fire Stick 4k max, which 
has home media control capability and should be able to power the tv on 
and change inputs, which is most of the tasks you probably really care 
about. Of course, when you're tuned to the input the Fire Stick 4k is 
on, Voice View screen reader on the Fire Stick will make it as 
accessible as a Fire Tv Edition smart tv would be.
