First time Amazon disappoints.

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2018

Never had a bad experience until now. The Fire stick didn't work. Called service and talked to a rep who was hard to understand and it sounded like a party going on in the background. Finally, after a long time on the phone, he came to the conclusion that it didn't work. He told me to box it up and send it back to be fixed. I put everything back in the original box and sent it out. I recieved a email saying it was being sent back. I got the stick today. Just the stick. No remote. No cords. No nothing. Just the stick.
I have always bragged to people about Amazons service, but I feel it's taken a step backwards lately. Maybe they just got to big and can't handle it. Getting help from someone you can understand and knows what they are talking about is getting harder.
Amazon has issued me a credit to get another one. I will update this further when I get the new one. I just hope that service, not just pricing, has put them where they are.

Great Product for Tech Troubled Seniors

Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2018

Configuration: Fire TV StickVerified Purchase

I bought this Fire TV Stick for my 85 year old grandmother who has trouble navigating through technology. I knew that this device would be helpful because instead of navigating through the apps (which is a foreign concept to her) she is able to ask Alexa directly to play her shows.

Pros:
- Easy to set up. I set this up in my Grandmother's rehabilitation center while she was recovering from a broken hip. I plugged into her TV and paired with the Rehab Center's free Wifi. No problem!
-Grandma is easily able to ask Alexa to play 'This is Us' - her favorite show! It was difficult for her to understand at first that she would need to navigate to Hulu and then open 'This is Us.' The major benefit of having Alexa is that she can easily ask for a specific show (ie: "Alexa, play the most recent episode of 'Modern Family'" or "Play 'Queer Eye'") without having to know which app to go to.
-She also asks Alexa what the weather is or to play some Frank Sinatra or Michael Buble.

Cons:
- Grandma had trouble understanding the button meanings, but I explained them to her and she jotted them down for reference. I believe she is grasping it now. The limited amount of buttons is actually ideal and less confusing.
- She did have a bit of difficulty toggling between live TV and the Firestick (HDMI1 vs. TV) but practicing or writing down for reference is helpful.

Overall, very happy with this product for my Grandmother. Apps, Streaming services, etc, are difficult for her to understand. However, this userinterface was fairly simple and only took a day or so for her to grasp. Plus I love that she likes to ask "Alexis" instead of "Alexa." Pretty cute.

Fire Stick Sucks (literally.)

Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2018

Configuration: Fire TV StickVerified Purchase

So, my Fire Stick died tonight. I came on here to check my purchase date - Dec. 15, 2017. I'm not really even sad about this. I have actually fantasized about the day this happens, so that I can replace the dreaded device with a Roku (of which I also own one unit.)

Just a few things that led me to despise the Fire Stick:

-It constantly downloads, even when you're not using it. There isn't a way to turn this feature off, so if you're like me and your internet isn't the greatest, it'll suck and suck and suck your bandwith. We have to unplug the dang thing when we play online games, because it will literally drive our ping up into the 1000s. Unplug the Stick, ping back down to 20. Hm.

- It's been buggy and sluggish since day one. The voice remote sometimes responds right away, sometimes pushing it will make the Stick crash. Netflix constantly crashes. Sometimes it takes over 5 mins to boot up the device. What a fun surprise!

- The remote randomly unpairs itself from the Stick. This is a real pain.

- They did away with the YouTube app, and they don't support Crunchyroll.

In short, I won't be shedding any tears for this thing. I'll have the husband dig a shallow, unmarked grave in the backyard by the moonlight and cut my losses.

Normally I love your stuff, Amazon, but this one was a real bummer.

Kick cable to the curb!

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2018

Configuration: Fire TV StickVerified Purchase

My cable bill was north of $200 a month and i started realizing i could not for the life of me figure out why i was still paying this much. After picking up a couple of these Fire TV Sticks I kicked the cable company to the side, picked up a TV tuner, and turned my home computer into a Plex Media Server. I now get over 100 HD channels, with DVR capabilities completely free, and the best part? I can stream it to any TV in the house and it is all thanks to these little Fire Sticks. Besides my own media I am an Amazon Prime member which means hundreds of TV's and Movies can also be directly streamed through this little Fire TV stick, as well as Hulu/Netflix if you are a paying subscriber to those as well.

That's essentially a small car payment i am saving myself every month and it is made entirely possible by these little Fire TV Sticks. I highly recommend you look into cutting the cord and switching to in home streaming!

What I once thought was silly is now a good thing!

Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2016

Configuration: Fire TV StickVerified Purchase

Earlier this month, my TV entertainment included Dish 200+ channel satellite TV, 20Mbps turbo internet, Netflix, and Amazon Prime. After doing some research, I bought 3 Amazon Fire Sticks with the voice remote, cancelled Dish, upgraded to 30Mbps internet, added Sling 25 channels, added standard Hulu, and CBS All Access. Guess who still gets 96+% of the channels watched, added Prime Music and several hundred shows (that networks don't play) to all the TVs in the house, and saved over $700 per year compared to what I paid this past year? I did. I never thought of "cutting the cord" until I really looked into it all. Getting Amazon Fire Sticks are worth it and they work well....and once you get used to knowing what show plays where, it's a no-brainer. Just like how you originally had to figure out how to use a smart phone back in the day. After a while, it's a breeze. I highly recommend everything I listed in this review. Seriously....take a couple hours and make a spread-sheet listing the must-have shows that people in your household watch. Then make a comparison to what's available on the streaming services. If you're like me, and you don't watch 80% of the channels you pay for, it's so worth it.
