My Favorite Amazon Deal of the Day: Fire TV Stick 4K Max
The Fire TV Stick has one advantage over other streaming boxes: it’s owned by Amazon, meaning you can often find discounts on it. For example, right now you can buy Amazon’s top streaming box, the Fire TV Stick 4K Max , for $39.99 (original price: $59.99).
Roku and Fire TV Stick are two of the biggest competitors in the streaming box market. Choosing between them has its pros and cons, so be sure to research their specifications before making a decision. Fire TV Stick excels at voice assistant support, which makes sense since it uses Alexa to execute commands. If you already have Amazon devices with Alexa at home, you can take advantage of all their benefits, as you don’t even need to press the remote to activate them. If you have a soundbar connected, Fire TV Stick will let you control it with the same remote.
It features a new 2.0 GHz quad-core processor, Dolby Vision and DHR10+ support, 16 GB of storage, and other features. One of the Fire TV Stick’s perks is the ability to install Kodi , which essentially gives you free access to almost anything streamable. If you’re an Xbox gamer (or aspiring to be one), all you need is an Xbox Remote to play games over the cloud via the Xbox app (no console required).
The Fire TV Stick 4K Max offers the largest storage capacity at 16 GB, the best Wi-Fi support (Wi-Fi 6E), and the best Alexa Voice Remote Enhanced voice assistant. At its current price, it’s cheaper than its more budget-friendly counterparts.
