Amazon is handing out cheaper Fire TV Sticks for a limited time
If you are in need of an affordable TV upgrade, you might be interested in the latest discounts from Amazon. The tech giant makes several devices, but few are as beloved as the humble Fire TV Stick, a simple gadget that instantly turns any TV into a streaming machine.
These diddy devices plug into the HDMI ports on any telly and, when connected to your home Wi-Fi, can beam anything from Netflix to BBC iPlayer into your living room. Right now, all four versions are on sale, with the cheapest currently just £29.99.
That great price gets you the Fire TV Stick HD, which comes with the Alexa Voice Remote so you can press buttons or use your voice to select what to play next.
A Fire TV Stick is a great option if you want one place to watch any video content, especially if you subscribe to several streaming services, from Prime Video to Apple TV to NOW TV.
But a Fire TV Stick is also a great way to breathe a bit of new life into an ageing TV that either has ailing smart features, or maybe none at all. Plugging in Amazon’s affordable Stick turns any TV into an easy to use entertainment hub.
If you have a TV with 4K capabilities, the cheapest way to stream in that resolution is with the Fire TV Stick 4K Select, which is currently on sale for an excellent £31.99, down from its usual £49.99. It also supports HDR10+ to ensure compatible screens look their best when streaming the latest blockbusters.
The 4K Select can even let you play Xbox games with no Xbox console required. All you need is a subscription to Xbox Game Pass and you can play titles such as Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Hogwarts Legacy – just remember you need an Xbox controller.
Meanwhile you could opt for the Fire TV Stick 4K Plus, which is £39.99 instead of £59.99 right now. This adds a faster processor for speedier operation and has Dolby Atmos support for TVs with enhanced audio chops. Plus if you have a Wi-Fi 6 router, this Stick is compatible with those faster possible speeds.
At the top of the range is the Fire TV Stick 4K Max, now £49.99, a £20 discount from its usual £69.99 price. This Stick has all the aforementioned perks plus Wi-Fi 6E. It’s also the only one that has the Fire TV Ambient Experience, which can turn your TV into a screen that displays artwork when not in use, or handy information like your calendar or the weather.
Amazon has listed all of these Fire TV Stick discounts as a “limited time deal”, so it’s not clear how long the savings will last. But if you have been mulling upgrading your existing streaming device or want to try your first one, now is a good time to get one while they are still on sale.
