- Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2025Configuration: Fire TV Stick 4KVerified PurchaseThe Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K (Newest Model) is here, and folks, it’s packing more features than I ever thought I needed in a tiny streaming device. With AI-powered search, Wi-Fi 6, and ultra-crisp 4K, this thing turns even the dumbest TV into a full-fledged entertainment powerhouse—all without requiring me to sell a kidney for a new Smart TV.
Setup – So Easy, Even My Grandma Could Do It
Amazon must have hired some wizards for their setup process because it’s ridiculously simple. Plug it in, connect to Wi-Fi, and boom—you’re streaming in minutes. No lengthy installations, no soul-draining firmware updates—just instant access to my favorite shows, movies, and that weirdly specific genre of true crime documentaries I pretend not to binge.
Performance – Faster Than My Willpower to Avoid Binge-Watching
The Wi-Fi 6 support means I no longer have to deal with buffering at the worst possible moment. It loads apps lightning fast, navigates menus smoothly, and lets me jump between streaming services with zero lag. It’s like my old Fire Stick took a few shots of espresso and decided to actually try for once.
AI-Powered Search – It Actually Knows What I Want
The AI search is both impressive and mildly terrifying. I can say something vague like “that one movie with the guy from that show”, and somehow, it figures it out. It also pulls content from multiple streaming platforms, so I no longer have to manually hunt through Netflix, Prime, and Hulu just to find a single movie. My laziness has reached new heights, and I love it.
Alexa Remote – Because Apparently, I’m Too Fancy for Buttons
Talking to my remote still feels a little dystopian, but I can’t lie—it’s convenient as heck. I can tell Alexa to pause, rewind, or launch an app without having to lift more than a finger. Plus, the remote feels solid (not that cheap, plasticky nonsense) and doesn’t eat batteries like it’s training for an endurance race.
Final Verdict: An Easy 5 Stars
If you’re looking for a powerful, fast, and insanely convenient streaming stick, this is the one. It takes everything great about the Fire TV Stick and cranks it up to “why didn’t I upgrade sooner?” levels.
Five stars—because now my biggest problem is deciding what to watch, not whether my Wi-Fi can handle it.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2025Configuration: Fire TV Stick 4KVerified PurchaseWorks great, clear picture 4k quality, and so easy to use. Got this new one because my old fire cube’s remote started having issues with the batteries not lasting more than a few days. This version is less expensive, so compact, and same picture quality so it was a no brainer. Love it, no complaints. I have a smart tv but much rather connect the firestick and have the Amazon platform as it’s what I’m used to and it’s easy to navigate.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2025Configuration: Fire TV Stick 4KVerified PurchaseAll I can say is wow, this firestick is so much better than my old one. Granted my old one was 5 plus years old so that’s a given. Setup was easy what takes the longest is downloading your apps and logging in. The speed is remarkably fast and there was no buffering. The remote feels well made and I couldn’t be happier with this firestick.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2025Configuration: Fire TV Stick 4KVerified PurchaseCaught on special price sale for $30. This is an upgrade from an older Amazon Firestick. We instantly noticed how buggy it is/was on startup. It appears to "adjust" to the HDMI signal which was causing lots of static and dropped frames. It is possible that this is/was some kind of update during startup.
However, on occasion we are still getting a grey static screen and service drop-out. The 4K Firestick device is brand new so we will watch it for at least a few days before determining is there is any further issue.
The good news is the 4K model is a surprisingly wonderful upgrade that impoved speeds, buffering, picture quality, audio, and overall performance. Prime Video and other services and channels work so much better now!
Sold! We love the upgrade and find the new remote to be much more fit for all aspects of Amazon's video services. The initial setup was very easy with two different options to begin. In about 10 minutes we were online, downloaded, updated, and ready to begin watching streaming content.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2025Configuration: Fire TV Stick 4KVerified PurchaseI recently upgraded to the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K (newest model), and it’s been a game-changer for my TV setup! My TV already had built-in apps, but I often experienced lag and buffering issues, which was frustrating. Since plugging in this Fire TV Stick, those issues are completely gone.
The AI-powered Fire TV Search is super handy, making it easy to find what I want without endless scrolling. Wi-Fi 6 support ensures a fast, stable connection, and I’ve noticed zero buffering—even when streaming high-quality 4K content. The overall speed and responsiveness of the Fire Stick are impressive, making everything feel smooth and quick. With the Fire Stick in use, I rarely need to rely on those apps.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2025Configuration: Fire TV Stick 4KVerified PurchaseSetup was amazingly friendly. Not one glitch while setting up. Came with power cord and adapter. To activate Alexa push the button on the remote. Other than limited access to ad free and limited selections (I only have Amazon prime) the device works well. Pleased with the purchase and video quality is a huge improvement from classic DVDs playing on a DVD player! Guess I am old school but I think this device will work great for my application! Definitely recommend, just wish there were more selections to watch with Prime Video.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2025Configuration: Fire TV Stick 4KVerified PurchaseI have to say I had a problem with it. Because of the plug that Amazon supplies for it. It doesn't really have enough power to it or something. Something's wrong with it. Anyways, you need to change the awhether you plug it into the wall. Or are you plugged into a search for tech? But you need to change that adapter as far as functionality. The functionality was fine. I'm not too big on channels. I mean the channels were OK. The sound quality is perfect. I don't have a problem with any of the buffering. A picture quality is great. It's compatible with my t. V. But truly as far as buffering.You don't really have to worry about that as long as your WI.Fi.Is in excellent or very good status
