We know that most modern TVs come with streaming services and apps built right into the screen (you can even find a full list of them in the best smart TV guide<\/a>), but we also know that you may not want to buy a whole new TV just to re-watch Friends for the tenth time \u2013 and plugging in your laptop with an HDMI cable certainly isn\u2019t the answer! Enter the streaming stick.<\/p>\n

Not only are they compact and convenient, but these sticks are also used to transform a non-smart TV into a feature-packed smart telly, becoming a simple way of playing shows from apps such as Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube, Apple TV+, Twitch, Disney+ and more.<\/p>\n

In recent years, major tech and entertainment brands have released their own sticks, giving you plenty of options to choose from. To help make this decision easier, our expert team has pulled together our pick of the best streaming devices available in 2024.<\/p>\n

From Amazon to Roku, in this guide you\u2019ll find our pick of the best streaming devices that we\u2019ve tried, tested and reviewed. Each one has also been given an award \u2013 from the best budget option to the best voice control and the best 4K video abilities.<\/p>\n

So how much should you be spending? That really depends on the streaming quality you\u2019re after, what design you prefer and the apps and channels you use most often. Pricing can still vary quite significantly, from the relatively inexpensive Roku Express<\/a> at well under \u00a330, to the premium Amazon Fire TV Cube<\/a> costing over \u00a3100. Whatever your needs, the RadioTimes.com<\/a> team has an option for you.<\/p>\n
