What is the Amazon Fire TV Stick?
The Amazon Fire TV Stick is a device that you plug into the back of your TV and allows you to stream shows from subscription services such as Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video. It looks a little like a USB stick and slots into the HDMI ports found in the back of your TV. These streaming sticks can be a brilliant way to upgrade an old TV and watch streaming services on a bigger screen rather than a laptop.
What types of Amazon Fire TV Stick are there?
There are three Amazon Fire TV Stick models to choose from and prices range from £29.99 to £49.99 RRP. In addition to these, there is also the Fire TV Cube, which has the capacity to be used as a smart speaker as well as a Fire TV device.

Updated in 2020, the new Amazon Fire TV Stick also streams in HD. One of the biggest differences between the Fire TV Stick and the cheaper Lite is that the original smart TV stick now has power and volume buttons on the Alexa Voice remote. Not a major upgrade but it does save you from swapping between remotes. Read our Amazon Fire TV Stick (2020) review to find out how it compares to its predecessor.
Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K
The cheapest way to get 4K streaming on a Fire TV device. It also supports Dolby Vision, HDR, HDR10+ and Dolby Atmos and has the superior Alexa Voice remote with the extra TV controls. Fantastic for those who want to get the most out of a 4K TV.
Amazon Fire TV Cube
Read our Amazon Fire TV Cube review to find out why we think this device is brilliant for anyone who’s been looking to purchase Amazon’s own devices for a while because it combines two-in-one. The Fire TV Cube is a fully-fledged Echo smart speaker with the added benefit of 4K streaming and all your streaming services in one place. If you’ve considered buying both an Echo and Fire TV Stick and have not yet taken the plunge, the Fire TV Cube is an ideal purchase for you.
