Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K reaches record-low price at 50% off

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 22 Oct, 19:58 · Archive

The newly launched Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K has dropped to $29.99, half its original $59.99 price.

Amazon's newly launched Fire TV Stick 4K has dropped to $29.99, marking a record low just weeks after the device was announced. Both Amazon and Best Buy are offering the 50% discount from its original $59.99 price.

The most significant upgrade in this new model is that it no longer requires a separate AC power adapter, instead drawing power directly from the TV's USB port. The stick supports 4K streaming at up to 60fps with HDR10 Plus for enhanced contrast. It features an improved remote with a new asymmetrical design, rounded bottom, and more tactile buttons, alongside Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity.

Amazon claims the new version offers 40% faster app loading speeds compared to other streaming sticks and features a slimmer design. The device runs the updated Fire TV OS with a redesigned interface and closer Alexa Plus integration. However, it lacks some premium features found in the pricier Plus and Max models, such as improved Wi-Fi and Dolby Atmos. The new model also does not support side-loading apps, unlike some older versions.
