1. Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max (2nd gen) – Best overall
The 4K Max (2nd gen) is the best Amazon Fire TV Stick yet, with the most storage ever, the most powerful performance and a wide range of features.
It delivers 4K resolution at 60Hz, with support for Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos and other HDR and surround-sound formats.
The Alexa Voice Remote Enhanced remote adds more buttons for more TV control, including a live TV key which is very useful for when live sports are airing. The Ambient Experience gives you a customisable screen saver with useful productivity widgets such as the weather and reminders. If you’re in the US, you can also take advantage of the generative AI features.
It doesn’t have hands-free Alexa like the more expensive Fire TV Cube, but at only £10/$10 more than the next model down, it’s still the best choice if you have a 4K TV. If you only have a 1080p panel, opt for the 3rd-gen Fire Stick.
