Amazon Fire TV Stick HD
You don’t need to pay for features you don’t need. Many of you are still perfectly happy with your Full HD 1,080p televisions. If that is the case, all you really need is the Amazon Fire TV Stick HD, and this one is only $24.99.
It is still a pretty capable device that gives you access to all your favorite streaming apps. These include YouTube, Disney Plus, Max, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Paramount Plus, Max, Netflix, Twitch, and more.
The specs are pretty basic, but you don’t need much to operate this little stick. It has 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage. It comes with Wi-Fi 5. That said, it will still look pretty good, as it has support for HDR, HDR 10, HDR 10+, and HLG.
You can even use the remote for Alexa commands, which means you can even control your smart home devices with it! If you like video games, it also supports Amazon Luna cloud gaming.

The software upgrade your 4K UHD TV needs
The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K brings your favorite streaming services to just about any TV in your household. Its compact size means that it easily fits behind your TV, no cable management necessary. The Fire TV Stick 4K supports a range of video formats and offers faster interface performance than cheaper Fire TV models.
Now, if you have a 4K screen, you can upgrade to the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K. Of course, it can reach a much sharper definition of 3,840 x 2,160. This will make things inherently look much better, but the unit also adds Dolby Vision support to the equation. This is in addition to all the other standards included in the HD model.
You might also notice a slight performance boost, as this model comes with 2GB of RAM. The audio is also improved thanks to Dolby Atmos support, as opposed to the cheaper model’s “Dolby encoded audio.”
Another nice addition is that the Stick 4K gets Wi-Fi 6. Of course, this only makes a difference if you have a compatible router and the internet speeds to match it. Thanks to all these additions, this model also gets Xbox Game Pass support, on top of Amazon Luna. It can also run Live Picture-In-Picture.

Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max
With Wi-Fi 6, Dolby Atmos and Vision, 4K UHD, and a faster processor.
The Fire TV Stick 4K Max is a subtle but welcome upgrade to Amazon’s top media streaming stick, packing extra RAM, a faster processor, and all of the high-end streaming options you can ask for. It’s immediately the best Fire TV Stick on the market, just as long as your TV and home Wi-Fi can keep up.
Those who want to go all out without graduating to the much larger Cube have the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max. It’s the best of its kind.
The main upgrade is the remote. It comes with an Alexa Voice Remote Enhanced. It has shortcuts and can be used to directly control your TV, soundbar, and receiver. You won’t need to have a bunch of extra controllers for all these other devices.
Additionally, the Stick 4K Max has 16GB of storage, and even faster Wi-Fi 6E support. Again, you will need a compatible router and matching speeds to really see a difference in internet speeds.
Otherwise, the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is pretty much the same as the standard 4K version.

The Amazon Fire TV Cube is the streaming device to get if you want an Amazon Alexa speaker as well.
Fire TV Cube lets you put down the remote and dive straight into your favorite movies and TV shows with the sound of your voice. From across the room, just say “Alexa, play The Mandalorian on Disney+” and Alexa will respond to your request.
Those who really want the ultimate experience can upgrade to the Amazon Fire TV Cube. Of course, this one is much larger and noticeable, as the sticks just hide in the back, and the Cube is meant to stand next to the TV.
In terms of specs and capabilities, it pretty much matches the Stick 4K Max, but throws in some extras. One of them is a physical Ethernet port, for much faster internet speeds. It also has an HDMI input, so you can route any video content through the Amazon Fire TV Cube, instead of having to switch between sources.
Likely the coolest feature is that the Cube also doubles as an Alexa speaker. It has its own mic and speakers. You can just yell at it from across the room, without the need to interact with the remote. You may also notice performance improvements. Amazon claims the Fire TV Cube is twice as fast as the Stick 4K Max.
Oh, and it has lighting, so that is definitely cool!
Are you getting any of these Fire TV streaming devices? We would advise that you act quickly, as we’re not sure how long these “limited time deals” will stick around.
