The 'best streaming device today'

According to one reviewer, the Fire TV Stick 4K is "faster and better" than previous Fire TV sticks. The new hardware makes the device the "best Fire Stick yet," they write. Adding, it's "much better" than the 1080p version while only being "a few dollars more."
The 4K version of the Fire Stick is "blazingly fast" versus the 1080p Stick, echos another shopper. Adding that you can "really notice the huge performance difference" between the two — upgrading is a "no-brainer."
The 4K Fire Stick is the "best streaming device today," says a third reviewer. The "sound and image are perfect" and "everything runs smoothly," they write.
While the Amazon gadget has earned top marks for picture quality, smart features and voice recognition, some reviewers say its 8 GB of storage is "too little for the price."
The 8 GB of storage is "useless," critiques one reviewer.
