The editors didn't like

  • Amazon makes IP control via advanced control systems a needless nightmare
  • Amazon Prime video content is forcefully prioritized to the exclusion of everything else

  • Simple design, Easy-to-use, Supports Dolby Vision / HDR / HDR10+ / Dolby Atmos
  • Setup could be easier, You need to be embedded in Amazon's ecosystem
  • Even though it can be hard to find, it's the presence of 4K HDR content from Amazon Prime Video (and also Netflix) that makes opting for the Fire TV Stick 4K worth it over and above the Full HD version – if you have a compatible TV.The value of the Amazon...

  • Great price for 4K HDR, Solid app selection, Speedy performance, New power and volume buttons on remote
  • No Now TV app, Not much 4K HDR content, Limited Alexa abilities for non-Amazon apps, Lame YouTube support
  • Amazon has produced another excellent little streamer. Because it's soooo Prime-centric, you'd be bonkers to buy it if you're not a subscriber. Having said that, the selection of third-party apps is excellent if you ignore Now TV, as indeed Amazon has. F...

  • The device comes with built-in parental controls that allow you to set a password or PIN number for purchasing videos, You can pair Bluetooth headphones with the Fire TV so you can watch shows without disturbing others in the same room, Photos or videos t
  • Showing photos and video stored on your smartphone on the Fire TV is a fiddly process, There's no MicroSD card slot to store items on and you can't connect the device to the internet using a wired connection
  • Great value for money, the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Ultra HD is a simple and easy to use way to get movie streaming services on your TV. Ideal for those with Ultra HD televisions that support Dolby Atmos and HDR 10, this is a great buy...

  • Excellent 4K and HD visuals, Wide range of apps and 'channels' means access to a huge range of free, subscription and pay-to-view stuff to watch, Support for Dolby Vision, HDR 10+ and Atmos means it seems pretty future-proofed, Voice control and the ful
  • The sheer volume of stuff to watch makes it inevitably unwieldy, There's very little so far that actually plays back with Dolby Vision, HDR10+ or Atmos
  • Because of the way Amazon has priced its 4K Stick, and the way it's then packed it with quality content, albeit content that you largely have to pay for in one way or another, recommending it becomes something of a no-brainer.To my mind, Roku's Streaming...

  • Speedy operation, HDR10 and Dolby Vision support, Top-notch voice control, Basic TV controls on remote, Alexa keeps getting better
  • Somewhat awkward design, Voice search still needs work, System has a few kinks to work out
  • Yes, especially if you're down with Alexa. Amazon's Fire TV Stick 4K is loaded with features, and apart from a few bugs to work out, it stands as one of the best streaming devices you can get for your money...

  • The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is, in our opinion, the best streaming device available today, all things considered. While some might argue that the Apple TV and Apple TV 4K are better than their Amazon counterparts, these devices also cost a lot more. For i...

  • After using the Fire TV Stick 4K, I'm convinced that this is the most effective way to turn any dumb TV into a smart TV. I started this review by talking about how TVs have done only one thing since inception and with the Fire TV Stick 4K, they still do o...

  • Abstract:  There's no doubt that smart TVs are starting to make inroads in India but the vast majority of televisions remain unconnected, so to speak. With streaming services doubling down on their efforts to capture the Indian audience, there is a need to get this...
