    This is the second one I've purchased. Works great on an older tv. I've cut the cord and have been able to find enough channels to watch, and much cheaper than cable. I also have a Roku TV and between the two, have plenty of choices.

    Add Smart TV Functionality to Existing TVs

    The Fire TV does a good job providing basic smart TV apps with access to Amazon store and your existing Amazon library of TV and Movies. It's small, can hide on the back of your TV with virtually no cables, and the included smart remote works well as a TV remote replacement. If you're looking to add smart tv functionality to a spare bedroom TV, this is a good option. However, it's not all rosy. Amazon has restricted apps like Vudu or the Google Play store. You can access YouTube, Sling, AT&T, Pandora, and Movies Anywhere, but I wish I could access my Vudu library without essentially installing unauthorized software. The device can hook up to a USB power port. Many TVs have USB ports available. In my experience, the USB port on my TV worked, but it worked with huge drawbacks. The FireTV isn't the fastest device in the world. If I kept the device plugged in to the TV power port, my fire stick wouldn't update while the TV was off. That resulted in long waits after turning the TV on to be able to stream or access apps. Also, the included TV USB port didn't provide enough power to power the system updates required by the device. Plugging in to the included AC adapter solved those problems, but it also meant I now have two device and a long cable to deal with. So, it works. It's not the best streaming platform, but as a way of adding smart features to an older tv in a guest room, it works pretty well.

    Of all the digital streaming devices out there, the firestick is the best for my needs. Seamlessly sync accounts and the many streaming services that they offer as well. No need to start a separate account like Roku.

    This has made my streaming experience so exciting, it offers all the programs that I need and I was able to ditch the cable and save one $100 a month. YaHoo I have recommended to all my friends who are doing the same.

    Glad I finally picked one of these up. It's much easier than trying to use my phone with a Chromecast and it's definitely less finicky with starting and pausing content. Still a little slow but it's hard to complain for the cost.

    This is my second Amazon Fire stick; purchased as a back up in case my 1st one stops working. I can watch all of my favorite movies and shows at a fraction of the cost of purchasing DVD’s or renting movies from Redbox.

    Amazon has really mastered the art of turning a regular TV into a smart TV! This device is powered, quick and VERY reliable! I use mine for iptv Cable TV! This brings you Live Cable Channels {over 600 channels} for only $25 a month..

    I love. I’m Inc to Best Buy knowing they have the best products available, and the staff genuinely want to help. I’m so fricking pleased with the Firestick; it literally has allowed me to save $130/month canceling cable TV.
