Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K (newest model) with AI-powered Fire TV Search, Wi-Fi 6, stream over 1.5 million movies and shows, free & live TV

Firestick 4k works the best out of every streaming device I've used! Highly Recommended! I love that I can side load APK apps (Android apps) onto the firestick using Downloads app on Fire or using a file manager with LAN (to transfer APK from computer or device on the same network to firestick). Pretty easy to setup additional remotes, like my Android phone, and my Bluetooth keyboard with roller ball mouse works great for navigation and typing. Bluetooth is great also for connecting any Bluetooth speakers wirelessly-it always works for me without any extra work The 4k version seems faster than the HD firestick, and blows the Firestick Lite out of the water!When I use 4k firestick on a regular HD TV (1280x1020), I change the settings to steam at a lower resolution, which helps conserve bandwidth by not streaming higher resolution than needed-this is a huge benefit bc I prefer the 4k stick because it seems to work better for me than the HD & Lite versions. I sideload the Stremio app (configured w Real-debrid) by enabling developer settings > allow external apps to install > select the app used to download the APK (to allow the app to install external apps). Then install app onto firestick and login to your Stremio acct.I recommend setting up your add-ons using a phone or PC because the Stremio app updates all devices on the same account with the add-ons, including configurations that you setup using another device. It's almost impossible to sideload apps onto Roku and impossible on Apple & Google devices, so I prefer firestick because FireOS is a flavor of Android, which is why apps work perfectly on Firestick. The remote works great too. I use rechargeable batteries bc I dislike 1-time use batteries-they last a long time before needing to be recharged. Its compact size makes it simple to install, store and travel.I connect firestick into any HDMI TV and provide Internet using a travel router¹ whenever I stay at a hotel so I can stream my YouTube, Netflix, Prime etc without remembering to logout of my services at checkout (besides, I don't like to login to anything in a hotel - including smart TVs)!I recommend accessories like the power cable that turns the USB on your TV into a power source for the Firestick, and a double prong micro USB cable that allows you to connect a USB thumb drive that expands the drive GB or connect another device like Android phone or Windows PC to do developer tasks like adb debugging etc. The firestick has an intuitive UI making navigation and settings easy to use. I wish I could customize the UI and settings more, like colors, navigation of the app and how it recommends shows or movies, and I wish I could connect services like IMDb and others to track watched content and search for content using their parameters (like filters for date, actors, production Co, genre, producer, director etc), but it's not a deal breaker to search for stuff to watch on a web browser then look up the title in firestick Search or voice search. Almost forgot, I love Alexa and it works seamlessly with firestick-a simple voice command to watch my video cams on TV or play music through the Bluetooth speakers & woofer. I think you can even use firestick in separate rooms to begin watching in 1 room and continue in another.Anyhow, explore everything you can do with your firestick - you won't be disappointed!* ¹ a Travel Router is an affordable device I highly recommend. It connects to any WiFi network and rebroadcasts it as a new, secure WiFi that you can add password like your home network. This lets your devices connect securely without the risks of connecting your multiple devices to open or public WiFi. Firestick connects Internet automatically to the travel router after configuring it 1x (and connects to any available Bluetooth devices Automatically)!

Holy moly, the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is an absolute game-changer! I had an older streaming stick that felt like it was powered by a hamster on a wheel, so I was prepared for more of the same, just... 4K. But no, this thing is a proper speed demon, and honestly, it's blown my expectations out of the water. Five stars, no question.From the moment I plugged it in, the difference was night and day. Apps load in a flash, navigating menus is incredibly zippy, and there's no more infuriating buffering mid-show. It's like my TV finally got a proper brain transplant. Everything just flows. I can jump from Netflix to Prime Video to YouTube without skipping a beat, and the picture quality, especially on 4K content, is absolutely stunning. My old stick made everything look like it was painted by a toddler; this one makes colors pop and details sing.But here's the kicker, the feature that truly solidified its five-star status: you can stream Xbox games on it! Yes, you read that right. With an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, you can download the Xbox app, pair a compatible controller, and suddenly your living room TV is a cloud gaming powerhouse. I've been playing Forza Horizon 5 and Starfield without even owning a console. The input lag is minimal (for cloud gaming, anyway!), and the ability to jump into a full-fledged Xbox game from a little stick is borderline magical.The remote is intuitive, the voice controls actually work, and the whole experience just feels incredibly polished. If you're looking for a streaming device that's not just quick but also offers unexpected gaming superpowers, do yourself a favor and snag an Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K. It's fast, fantastic, and frankly, a bit mind-bending.

item as described. our Xfinity bill became way too high over the years, as we decreased our plan, price still went up. customer service has diminished to point of you go in store, they still put you on the phone with someone. Never resolving your concerns and started to feel like the company is outside the U.S. and doednt care about their customers. So we finally switched to a Fiber Optic service and we have been much happier, fraction of what we paid for Xfinity. Problem was, we have older TVs, still work great but you cannot download all the newest streaming channels. We were told to get this Fire Stick or the Roku device. We opted for the Fire Stick. We purcgased during a sale so we paid half off. It arrived quick and we set it up quick and easy. we are very happy. Voice control works well. Only thing we do experience is controller is sensitive. If the slightest touch to any button. i.e. it falls on floor or off our lap, it has turned power off or change the "channel". It's a smaller controller than we have been used to so it's just something we need to get used to. we had Xfinity for over 20 years with same remote and this being new for us, just getting used to it but we have adjusted quickly. Highly recommend! We do have Prime with our Amazon account, not sure if that matters.
