The Fire TV Stick, small HDMI sticks embedding an OS capable of transforming our old televisions into connected models equipped with all the applications of the moment (Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV etc.) have just been renewed by the giant Amazon.
On the program, better processors for a smoother user experience, more storage than before and a faster Wi-Fi standard. Two versions were presented, but they do not differ much.
Two models from €70
The Fire TV Stick 4K has 16 GB of storage and a new chip displaying 30% more performance than the previous generation. A point that is always difficult to verify in practice, let’s admit it. Of course, Dolby Atmos is there, as well as Dolby Vision, HDR, HDR10+ and HLG.
The Fire TV Stick 4K Max also has 16 GB of storage, but it integrates an even more efficient processor and above all Wi-Fi 6E for those who want to benefit from an optimal wireless connection. In addition, a feature called “dynamic screen” appears on this more high-end model, allowing thousands of works of art to be displayed, similar to what Samsung offers with The Frame. Here, access is free and will also offer widgets to access the weather, information, personal photos or even a calendar.
