    The product was easy to use and will save lots of money on a monthly basis. It is just like using your regular home phone. Reception is extremely clear. The great thing about the transition to this phone was I was able to keep my same phone number.

    Since the Fire TV stick was announced, I've heard a lot of people wonder if it was something worth picking up, essentially asking "what does this thing do that my TV doesn't do already?" The answer is going to be different for different people, but here's an easy way to think about it; Amazon Fire TV Stick is an excellent purchase if: -Your TV is not a "smart" TV. Meaning your TV or dvd player did not come pre-loaded with apps such as Netflix, Youtube, Pandora etc... -Your TV is a "smart" TV, but apps do not perform well. Some smart TVs have painful performance when streaming video, apps can be difficult to update, wifi connection can be spotty etc... -You want to access Youtube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Pandora, and other such apps on your TV -You are an Amazon Prime Member and want to access your Prime Video, Prime Music, and Prime Photo accounts -You want to participate in casual gaming on your television. -You want to listen to music on your TV -You want to have portability. In other words, Television access to the above services while you are travelling. (Amazon says the capability to use in hotels/dorms etc... with shared wifi that requires frequent password entry is coming soon) So, the bottom line is that the Fire TV Stick allows you to access your movies, music and photos as well as games and more via your television. If your TV already does these things well, or you're already doing them via other devices such as a game console, then this may not be worth your while. So, how easy is it to use? I'm telling you, you do not have to have an ounce of technological know how to have this thing up and running in a matter of minutes. There is a set of 5 very simple instructions for set-up that had me watching House of Cards less than 10 minutes after I unboxed it. It comes with a remote that includes just 7 buttons (your phone can also become a remote by adding an app, though this is not quite ready on the iPhone yet) and upon completion of connecting the stick, you are taken to a simple tutorial video that explains very well the use of the remote. There is also an optional voice control remote that can be separately purchased. It is in no way required to operate the Fire Stick. Sidenote: If you buy the Stick online, it comes preset to the account from which it is ordered. If this is not the account you plan to use (I needed to use my wife's because she has the prime account) it's very easy de-register and change accounts; took me less than a minute. I have accessed Prime Video and the picture and speed is fantastic. I've accessed Prime Music and the sound quality and speed are excellent and include nice background photos of artists and albums. Apps are easy to browse and download as are games. I was also able to "fling" to Netflix etc... from my Kindle Fire quite easily. I've been using a Chromecast since they came out, and I think the Fire TV Stick competes very well. I like the remote (which the Chromecast doesn't have), and I love the memory and speed. And if you are an Amazon Prime Member, this is hands down your best option. This would make a great gift, and is easy enough to use that you could give it with confidence to someone who has no technological savvy at all. If you're looking to get the most out of your HDTV, The Fire Stick is a fantastic way to go about it. I highly recommend it, and based on how smoothly everything went on what was probably a very busy day for Amazon servers, I'm confident that you'll have the same or an even better experience. Enjoy!

    I received this item via Amazon's first offering to Prime members and I'm really, really impressed with the build quality and performance of this streaming device. I own an Apple TV, Roku 3, Chromecast, smart TV and other streaming media devices, but the Amazon Fire TV Stick is quickly becoming a favorite. It's small, highly portable, is easy to install and use, and zips right along, especially when accessing Amazon's app. It has game apps, but this is where it's less appealing. The remote is the real issue. I didn't get it for gaming, so it's not a big deal to me. I use Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon, Pluto TV and other video streaming apps without issue. They open quickly on my home network (60 Mbps) and there's no buffering, which is great! I am a cord cutter (meaning I don't have cable or satellite TV), so streaming media supplements the over air TV I get with my Mohu Leaf 50 antenna. (I wrote a Kindle book to help others cut the cord: Simple Guide to Over-the-Air Free TV .) The Amazon Fire TV Stick works well and could easily be used by cord cutters to supplement their OTA TV entertainment with streaming media. It works on a HDTV or PC monitor with a HDMI connection and has to have a AC plug nearby as the Stick is powered. A HDMI extension cable is included with the Fire TV Stick and AC power adapter in the box. When you consider how much this thing can do, how quickly it does it with a dual core processor, the simple user interface, the help videos in Settings, the ability to get a voice activated remote (as with the Fire TV) and/or a game controller for it, and the ability to use it to mirror what's on your Kindle to your HDTV - you've got a winner! Even non-techy types will love this thing. You'll love it even more if you have Amazon Prime membership at $99 a year. Your Photos and Videos that you've uploaded to the Amazon Cloud (unlimited space for Prime members) can be accessed by the Fire TV Stick to be shared on your HDTV. You also get access to all that great Prime programming. There's also an Android app for this thing that gives you voice activation - a remote for your smartphone. There's not yet one for iOS, but I"m sure they are working on it. The only app that is missing (popular ones anyway...) is HBO GO. Not sure why? You can setup this Stick on a motel HDTV on the road. You just need the motel's Wifi network and password (setup in Settings) to link up. Once you get this thing and register it, you input your Netflix, Hulu Plus and Amazon info. If you don't have Netflix - you can get a 1 month free trial. If you don't have Hulu Plus - a free 7 day trial is offered. Amazon Prime members also enjoy Prime Music (their library is accessed from the Amazon Cloud via the device), Pandora, Spotify and other music media. Apps are downloaded onto the device which has limited memory, but can be removed to make more space if needed. Photos and Music from Amazon remain on the Cloud, and do not take up space on the device. I'm just really sold on this thing at this low price point, with this great performance out of the box. I think it would be the perfect gift for college students, travelers, cord cutters, or anyone who wants to enjoy streaming media cheaply, but with quality hardware and ease of use.
