    Freeze up, needs rebooting often. Not near as reliable as the old fire stick. Only upgraded because my remote quit on the old one and a replacement remote didnt make sense because the whole fire stick upgrade was not much more.

      Hi JAMESB,

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about the Fire TV Stick 4K Plus. I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing frequent freezing and reliability issues that require constant rebooting – that's definitely not the experience we want you to have with our newest model.

      It's particularly frustrating that you upgraded from your old Fire Stick (which sounds like it was more reliable) and are now dealing with these glitches. Your device should be performing better, not worse, especially given the 4K Plus's improved specifications.

      Here are a few troubleshooting steps that may help:

      Try unplugging the Fire Stick from power for 30 seconds, then plug it back in for a full restart
      Ensure your Fire Stick is plugged directly into a wall outlet using the included power adapter (not a TV USB port, as this can cause power-related issues)
      Check for any pending software updates in Settings > My Fire TV > About > Check for Updates
      If you're using Wi-Fi 6, try temporarily switching to a 2.4GHz or 5GHz band to see if connectivity is contributing to the freezes

      If these steps don't resolve the frequent freezing, please reach out to our support team at 1-888-280-4331 or through the Fire TV app. They can help troubleshoot further or discuss replacement options to get you a device that works reliably.

      We appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve our products. AmazonDevices

    Rating if for being rush requested for an opinion. if this one works as well as the others I have purchased, then it is OK. Dipsticks send me a survey request days after I had purchased and give NO time for it to be installed, used, tested. it was for a seldom used guest room TV.

    This is a great product, but has slugglish navigation due to a lack of CPU power. If you want a smart tv stick that has more power and is smoother, just buy the better version of this stick.

      Hello VictorIF! Thank you so much for your valued feedback and time as we are always working to improve upon the customer experience based on feedback like this. The Fire Stick is set to automatically select what is the best available frequency based on distance from your router and amount of devices currently using the 5Ghz frequency in your home. One way to try to fix this is to restart your router. This typically reprioritizes the devices on your network and may help in getting your Fire Stick to pick it up. I presume that by 5G that is what you meant. You can also always reach out to Amazon Customer Support at 888.280.4331 for further troubleshooting as well. I do hope this helps resolve your problem and that you have a terrific day! AmazonDevices

      Hello Grizz57! Thank you so much for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience with our Fire Stick 4K! I am glad you got a nice deal on this device! I am so sorry for the misunderstanding of exactly what live programming is available for each area. One thing that you can do to access your live local programming is via a live service subscription through services and apps such as Hulu Live, YouTube TV, or Sling TV. While those services do require subscriptions, they do give the full experience of streaming a cable service provider. In addition to this, you can access a wide plethora of free live programming through apps like PlutoTV and there are even select markets with free Live Local news and weather available via the News app. These are all just the tip of the iceberg of what one can do with a Fire Stick as well! There are thousands of movies and shows available with an immense amount of them all being free. Also, if you do have a cable service provider, we have access to apps like DirecTV Stream and Xfinity that you can use. There are games available for download and via our Luna cloud based gaming service. And with Alexa fully integrated into this, you can use your voice and remote to control your smart home services through brands like Ring or Blink amongst many others. I hope this gives you a small taste of the many ways you can utilize the terrific priced value you got on your Fire Stick and that you have an improved experience the more you dive into your options. Thanks again for your feedback and I hope you have an amazing day! AmazonDevices
