The streaming device supports leading HDR formats: Dolby Vision, HDR and HDR10+ and brings visuals and audio to life with immersive 4K streaming and Dolby Atmos audio. It's compatible with next-generation wifi 6E and with 16GB of storage, it offers the most storage in a Fire TV Stick, double that of a Fire TV Stick 4K and the brand's other streaming sticks.

Users gain access to more than 700,000 movies and TV episodes, including favourites from Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ and Crave. Plus, with the enhanced Alexa voice control feature, you don't have to touch the remote to search and launch content and control compatible smart home devices.

What reviewers are saying

Fans of the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max say the device has "revolutionized" their home entertainment setup. Despite its small size, it "delivers impressive performance" and offers "smooth 4K streaming at remarkable speeds."

It's the "best" Fire TV Stick "to date," writes one shopper. The reviewer, who has tried a "good number" of previous Fire TV Sticks, says the 4K Max offers a "slightly faster CPU" and notes its increased storage (16GB) makes this the Fire TV Stick "the one to buy from now on."

It's a "no-brainer," they add.

Another shopper says Amazon's Fire TV Stick 4K Max is "faster" and "much better" than older Fire TV Sticks. It's "super fast for scrolling" and "well worth upgrading."

Despite thousands of rave reviews, some say the remote feels "cheaply made" and note the wifi can be "temperamental."

If you're in the market for a new streaming device or want to upgrade your old Fire TV Stick, this is a deal you won't want to miss. Dubbed the "best" Fire TV Stick "to date" by shoppers, reviewers report that the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max streaming device is "faster" and "much better" than previous models.
