With a streaming stick, you can instantly equip your TV with a wide selection of streaming apps and services just by plugging in a tiny little device. Amazon’s Fire TV Sticks are among the best-selling models, as they’re easy to use and bundle numerous streaming services.
The newest Fire TV Stick 4K model is currently on sale for $24.99 on Amazon. That’s a huge 50% discount on the original $49.99 MSRP, and this deal is “selling fast” according to the product page. More than 10,000 units have been sold in the past month alone!
Why the Fire TV Stick 4K is great
The Fire TV Stick 4K supports 4K Ultra HD, Dolby Vision, HDR10, and Dolby Atmos for a high-quality home cinema experience (provided your TV and sound system support these standards). Its Wi-Fi 6 tech ensures more stable connections, even when several devices are active on the network at the same time. (Again, given yours is a Wi-Fi 6 router. Don’t have that? No worries. It’ll work with older routers, too.)
One special feature is the Xbox app integration: with a Game Pass Ultimate membership, you can stream Xbox games such as Starfield or Forza Motorsport directly via the stick without an Xbox console. For casual gamers, this is an inexpensive way to play the latest titles.
With the included Alexa voice remote, you can easily navigate through the menu/apps using buttons and/or voice commands. This allows you to audibly search for genres or launch a TV series, for example. Similarly, you can integrate the stick into your smart home, using Alexa to control compatible devices such as lights, cameras, and thermostats.
Why this deal is worth it
For just $24.99, the Fire TV Stick 4K is one of the cheapest ways to significantly upgrade any existing TV setup.
It combines great picture and sound quality with Wi-Fi 6 support, voice control, and a large selection of apps and services. Although some features require compatible devices or subscriptions, the device’s overall performance and ease of use are impressive.
The Fire TV Stick 4K has a 4.7 rating on Amazon with over 87,000 reviews. The easy installation, smooth operation, user-friendliness, and price-performance are particularly praised. There’s some criticism of the remote control, which isn’t fully appreciated by all users. But overall, the positive reviews clearly outweigh the negative ones.
