You can read plenty about how this tiny device has changed users' TV time for the better — it has over 411,000 five-star fans.

Pros 👍

"This is so easy to set up and use, I wish I'd gotten this years ago," raved a now-enlightened fan. "I'll be honest, and I feel a bit foolish admitting this, but despite hearing about the Fire TV Stick's existence for years, I never considered it because I thought there was a monthly fee! I didn't want to pay for anything beyond my subscriptions, so I never even read the details."

Take it from this charged-up cord-cutter: "This purchase right here? Absolute game-changer! I mean, I was fed up with those ridiculously expensive cable TV subscriptions. So I took matters into my own hands and got this amazing device. And guess what? Now I'm practically running my own TV network!"

"I got this for an elderly lady that doesn't have cable, and her regular TV antenna would always lose signal," said one thoughtful buyer. "I haven't seen her this happy in a long time. She is now streaming shows and movies, she learned to speak to Alexa at 87 years old. I am very happy with the product, and I highly recommend it. It is very easy for anyone to use, from children to the elderly."

Cons 👎

One user pointed out that storage could be a problem. "The only downside is that there is a limit to the memory, so be careful not to load up too many apps," one user cautioned. "Only put on the ones you frequently use." (Need lots of storage? No worries! Grab the on-sale Fire TV Stick 4K Max instead.)

This five-star reviewer had a rueful reflection: "My only complaint is that screen mirroring from other devices isn't as easy as [I] would like it to be."

This reviewer nabbed the Lite for an older TV: "I get every streaming service that I subscribe to, with options for more if I choose to. I love that I can use my iPhone as a remote. I’m shaking my head right now, wondering why I didn’t get one sooner."
