Where is the best place to get an Amazon fire stick? And is it worth getting 4K Max or just 4K

Posted 1st Dec 2023 (Posted 11 h, 20 m ago)
Hello everyone, I know that I've missed Black Friday but I didn't need one then now I am without fire stick. I had the original so I think it's the second generation now, but is it worth getting the 4K Maxx or would the 4K do? I don't have any special routers or anything like that. Just regular BT box with super fast broadband any advice is greatly appreciate it. Hoping to buy one today. Thanks, for all your help

    I take it the difference is just resolution and speed? I have a 4k TV but how fast is the 2nd Gen compared to the 1st?

    Difference is Wifi 6e (you don't have), double storage (doesn't matter for streaming) and art gallery mode.

    Either of the 4K sticks will be good (ignore the comments above about OLED, the op seems a bit confused).

    4k if you have an oled TV, if not just a normal one

    What's OLED got to do with it ?

    At the minimum go for the 4k firestick. Only upgrade to the max version if you can take advantage of the extra features.

    As for were to buy them. Amazon would be the obvious place. They will be the same price everywhere. They always are (edited)

    4k max you can upgrade the amount of storage, the others you can't so you might run out if you have a lot of apps
