  • PositiveGreat performance and operation
  • PositiveGood remote control
  • PositiveVery fair price
  • NegativeFew connection possibilities

With the Fire TV Stick 4K Max, Amazon is launching its most powerful media player in stick format to date. And in our test, it impressed us with its good performance, powerful operation and practical features. The whole package is also available at a very fair price. In the video you can see the Fire TV Stick 4K, which we would like to recommend to you as an alternative.
