Hello PCGQ. Thank you so much for your time and feedback of your Fire Stick. I am sorry to hear that you are not finding it easy to use at all. There are numerous Help features embedded into the setup of your device as well as in the Settings. There is a Help icon that gives a lot of tips and tricks and ways to troubleshoot. Also, the microphone button on the remote allows you to do quite a bit of navigation directly by using Alexa. You can just hold down the button and say what you are trying to do. Lastly, you can also always contact Amazon Customer Support directly at 888.280.4331 for further assistance. We would love the opportunity to help improve your experience. Thanks again for your time and have an awesome day!

I returned this item after I realized that I would have to go through Amazon for all of the subscriptions we already had on Google. We purchased a Google streaming device that works with all of our current subscriptions.

Hi Buyer,
The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max has so much more to offer than the Google streaming stick. Yes, you would have to download and log into the apps you wished to use on the Fire TV Stick 4K Max, like Netflix, that require a subscription. The device would have prompted this during set up. You would not have been going through Amazon, you would have been downloading apps or signing up for streaming you wished to use on the device.
Hope that helps!

Worst Firestick Ever

Not recommended because Wifi 6E upgrade is not worth it to spend extra $, better to buy regular 4k version
Brand response from Amazon Devices Customer Support

Hello and thank you for your review and feedback on your Fire Stick 4K Max. I am sorry to hear that you think this is the worst Fire Stick as this is our flagship model. It is only $10 more and offers not only the WiFi 6E support as you stated but also has a faster processor than the 4K model, has double the storage, and also has Fire TV's Ambient Mode feature which offers 1500+ free images and artwork to be used in standby mode to turn your TV into a work of art, for example. It also comes with the Enhanced Alexa Voice Remote which has some extra button controls. While the 4K model is a fantastic choice for streaming platform, this model offers quite a bit more for a small increase in price. I hope this helps shed some light on some features you have with your model so you can have a better experience with it. Thanks again for your time and feedback and I hope you have a fantastic day!

Yes the 3 free items with purchase is misleading as this is not offered if bought in store. Also customer service was not helpful in resolving the issue so I will return the item.

I bought two. My friend who has Direct TV tried to connect his and couldn't. We called Best Buy but the wind up was that we could pay to have a Best Buy rep come out and hook it up. I returned both. For people who know what they are doing with these items, I'm sure it's a win.

not 4k, and consistent connectivity to work for streaming, that selling point for all unnecessary services
Brand response from Amazon Devices Customer Support

Hi Nimeshp, thank you for providing feedback on the Fire TV Stick 4K Max. I am sorry to see you have been disappointed in your experience thus far. If your Fire Stick isn't playing 4K, the most likely reasons are: your TV might not be set to 4K resolution, your HDMI cable might not be 4K compatible, your internet connection might not be fast enough, or the content you're trying to watch might not be available in 4K on the streaming app you're using; to troubleshoot, check your TV settings, ensure a high-quality HDMI cable is used, verify your internet speed, and make sure the content you're selecting is offered in 4K within the app. If these steps do not help and you are still experiencing issues, you can reach out to Amazon Customer Support 24/7 at 1-888-280-4331. Thank you again, wishing you a Happy Holidays!

If im being completly honest this firestick is junk. Half the time it might play movies and the other half the movies will buffer. No its not my wifi because ive tested it and wifi is 600mbps.

Hello JacobM, Sorry, that you're experiencing issues with streaming content on your Fire TV Stick 4K Max device and it keeps buffering. Is this happening with a particular app or all? Have you tried connecting to a different network like a mobile hotspot? Just questions to think about, lets see if I can help... Here are some troubleshooting you can try: -Check that your Fire TV is on the latest software version. To check for updates, go to Settings and then My Fire TV or Device & Software. -Restart your Fire TV. You can restart from Settings or unplug the power adapter for 1 minute, and then plug it back in. -Restart your modem and router. To restart your devices: Unplug your modem and router for 30 seconds. Plug in your modem first and wait for the lights to turn on and for it to connect to the internet. Plug in your router and wait for the lights to turn on and for it to connect to the internet. If you are still having issues, you can reach Amazon Customer Support 24/7 on the device. You can reach them at, #1-888-280-4331. I hope this information helps. Have a great day!

Hello EnocH,
Tuvo una inconveniencia con su Fire TV Stick 4K Max, pensó que el problema estaba en el control y no en los cables. Es frustrante cuando pasan estas cosas, especialmente después de poco tiempo de uso. Si está dentro el primer año que compró su dispositivo tiene garantía con Amazon, puede llamar servicio al cliente 1-888-280-4331 podrá resolver este asunto. Espero que esto le ayude. Tenga un gran día!

Worked great for 3 weeks then went into loop and wouldn't connect to remote. After hours of tech support Amazon replaced it under warranty. Best Buy refused to help because it was outside their 15 day return window.
