    Spend the money and get the 4k model that has power and audio controls. This model is ok but requires the use of another remote to control these items.

    good product, though I did not like that it forced me to sign up for an Amazon account.

    Keep your previous generation Fire Sticks instead

    While I have been satisfied with Amazon Fire Sticks, this New Fire Stick Lite has problems with signing-in to Apps. While code-based apps to be entered via other devices work well, sign-in apps on the Fire Stick itself often fail. Amazon's reviews and customer service strings verify this troubling fact. In addition, updates to the Fire Stick are not packaged or bundled, so you need to update your Fire Stick over several days. Also, it should be noted that location services need to be turned-in for most apps in order for them to work properly.

    Admittedly, it may be my fault I guess for not reading everything on the box (if it's even on there) but never in my wildest dreams would I think a remote control MADE FOR CONVENIENCE wouln't have VOLUME BUTTONS. Just dumb.

      Hello Alexander. I am so sorry for any confusion from the packaging of the Fire Stick Lite. This being the entry level model in our lineup, it is the lowest priced device. To remain aggressively priced, it does not have some of the features that the rest of the lineup has, one of which being TV controls. It is meant to only use the on screen menu of the Fire Stick interface and is meant for people who use their existing TV remote or have a universal remote to control everything instead. The next model up and beyond all have TV controls as well as additional options based on your needs for the device. You can see if you are still within your exchange/return period for your purchase from the store you purchased it from or in a worst case scenario, we do sell the remotes separately and even have 2 options available with additional features as well. I hope this helps improve your experience some and I thank you for taking the time to provide valued feedback. I hope you have an awesome day! AmazonDevices

    It was a great way to get a tv I already have to display my favorite shows, it came with a free month of the food network which was another great perk to this product

    I’m only giving it 2 stars because the online ordering and store pickup was amazing however the process of setting up the fire stick is harder than we thought I got the fire stick for my mom and we have not been able to set it up. I’m getting word from other people stating it needs to be “Jail-Break” whatever that is. So although the price the ordering online and no contact store pickup was amazing the process of trying to get it hooked up is a negative because at this point we still have no idea of how to set it up

    The product worked for awhile, maybe 1month and now the sound stops working. I have to unplug it, then plug back in. Never had this issue with roku, so I’m sticking with that.

    I was disappointed that I need to purchase a separate item in order to control my TV with the fire stick lite. Not Best Buy’s fault but Amazon dropped the ball with this...

    The quality of the product has gotten even cheaper the the previous one we have replaced. Have to not leave it anywhere other than the tv stand so it won’t get damaged.

    This item was returned because I wanted a different device instead. I exchanged it for what I would consider an upgrade....it had a remote control and headphones.

    This firestick started strong. After only a few weeks, I was not able to watch some of my downloaded programs. I had to replace it with Roku and no more problems

    Kinda feel like copy was very sluggish, didn’t enjoy. I would opt for the 4K version. I ended up getting a nvidia shield 4K streaming device.

    I bought this to replace my 2018 fire stick which I could not get Disney+ to work on. Now I can get it to open but nothing will play. Otherwise it works well.

    I don't have anything negative to say about the stick, I just prefer the ROKU platform. I think the ROKU platform is easier to navigate.
