As part of Best Buy’s Black Friday 2020 preview sale, which runs through November 1, you can get this device, regularly $49.99, for 29.99—the same price it was going for on Amazon Prime Day.
Not only does this device rank among the best streaming devices we’ve ever tested, shoppers love it too: It’s racked up more than 351,000 reviews on Amazon, nearly 300,000 of which are 5-star.
Even if you’ve got already got an older Fire Stick (also on sale for $27.99), you’ll likely want to upgrade to the 4K version, which allows for higher resolution on 4K and HDR-compatible devices.This improved device also includes easy access to more diverse non-Amazon Prime content, such as Disney+, Netflix, YouTube, Hulu and AppleTV+.
As an added bonus, our Home Theater Editor, Lee Neikirk, notes that “handling 4K content means that the newer 4K-capable Fire TV Stick is generally faster to load and stream things overall—even if you’re not watching in 4K just yet.”
All in all, we think this Stick is an excellent, budget-friendly choice. Looking for something even more affordable? Check out the Fire Stick Lite, which is just $17.99 on the site right now. The main difference in comparison to the regular Fire Stick, according to our tech team, is the slightly faster harder hardware and a Dolby Atmos passthrough not seen on the Lite. This less expensive model also won’t control your TV’s power or volume, but for those looking for a basic, budget-friendly option, it will do just fine.
These prices will last through October 31, but there’s no guarantee on the stock, so you’ll want to get on them soon. Happy streaming!
