Amazing!
I love my FireStick. I’ve had it for years and it still works great. It was amazingly cheap compared to other similar products (plus I got mine during Amazon Prime Days) and works just as well, if not better
Good product with a few minor downsides
We got one of these a few months ago and have found it a big improvement in our watching experience compared to the Telus box we had before, or just using the smart tv apps. Everything you want to watch is in one place, and is searchable. Here are the only downsides I have noted so far:
- When you set Amazing picture favourites as your screensaver it tends to only play a few of the photos over and over again rather than cycling through all of them.
- It makes recommendations for items from Amazon Prime on your homepage and will not allow you to change or remove them.
- It occasionally just needs to be rebooted when it stops working properly.
- There is no setting to only bring up search results available for viewing with current subscriptions - meaning you will get results that cost additional to watch when you search for something.
Maybe they will address some of this in future releases. In any case, a good product overall.
Makes streaming simple on any tv
Bought one for my husband last Christmas and then two more this year. Works on our tvs and projector. We love having all the streaming services easily accessible and have since ordered one more for my parents. Love love love our firestick. You do need a Prime account, but we already had one so this was no extra expense.
Will always buy
Our house loves the fire tv stick! We currently own 3 of them and use them every single day. We have cable, but don’t watch it much due to having everything we need right on the fire stick for easy access… all the apps we watch including Netflix, Hulu, Disney plus, espn plus, discovery plus and more.
Perfect gift
~~~ BENEFITS ~~~
• I have TV Stich and Chromecast and I much prefer TV Sitch.
• No need for a cell phone because it comes with its own controller so the television becomes truly intelligent and not a duplicate screen.
• The interface is good and simple.
• It’s really a very good price $ 50 to make a smart TV, what could be better?
• The controller is very simple. There are not a million buttons on it.
~~~ Disadvantages ~~~
• Does not have the Bell fiber TV app.
• Not yet able to control my dot echo to operate the TV stich alexa.
~~~ CONCLUSION ~~~
Very good purchase although it should have a little improvement.
~~~ FEED-BACK AFTER 3 months ~~~
Works very well.
Worth every penny
The firestick is so much more user friendly than any Andriod box I've ever come across.
The firestick is consistent and easy to navigate. The Alexa remote is also easy to use and quite convenient.
Wish I'd bought it sooner!
My family and I were searching a long time to find a cost effective way to cut our cable, and along came the firestick. I gotta say, I really wish we had bought this sooner, it suits all of our needs!
Transform your "normal" tv in smart tv
I love this! I have a smart tv that is a bit old... and some of the apps i was using were not working anymore. (Tv said that it could not support the new update of the apps) The tv was still working perfectly and didn't want to chamge it, so i bought this, and it works better than when i was using the smart options on my tv (even when it was new). I got a second one for the other tv also! Would definitely recommend!
A must have item!
We ditched cable and went to full streaming. You can find one of these little miracles in every room of the house that has a television. Easy to use, we can share a digital library, and if the TV remote is lost you can still control the power and volume. Having the Alexa feature is very helpful for children too young to manipulate all of the remote functions to "find" the show they want. Much better than the previous version that didn't have tv controls.
The watching never ends!
Amazing product! It is so easy to set and begin using right away! You can find all your favorite apps and use them right on your television! Watching tv was never so fun!
