The new Amazon Fire TV Stick launched in the US back in October and now Amazon is launching the device in the UK.
The updated Amazon Fire TV Stick is now available to pre-order from Amazon and it will launch in the UK from the 6th of April 2017.
Enhanced Performance and Features
The new version of the device comes with a quad-core processor, making it around 30 percent faster than the previous model. This significant boost in speed ensures smoother streaming and quicker load times, enhancing the overall user experience. Additionally, the device now supports 802.11ac Wi-Fi, which offers faster and more reliable internet connectivity compared to the older 802.11n standard. This means users can enjoy high-definition streaming with fewer interruptions and buffering issues.
One of the standout features of the new Amazon Fire TV Stick is the inclusion of a new Alexa remote. This remote can be used with voice commands to control Amazon’s voice-activated assistant, just like on the Amazon Echo devices. With Alexa, users can search for movies and TV shows, play music, control smart home devices, and even get weather updates, all through simple voice commands. This integration makes the Fire TV Stick not just a streaming device, but a central hub for smart home control.
Expanding Entertainment Options
The Amazon Fire TV Stick offers access to a vast array of streaming services, including popular platforms like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video. With the new model, users can also enjoy enhanced support for 4K Ultra HD and HDR content, provided they have a compatible TV. This means crisper, more vibrant visuals and a more immersive viewing experience.
Moreover, the Fire TV Stick supports a wide range of apps and games, turning your TV into a versatile entertainment center. Whether you’re in the mood for binge-watching your favorite series, catching up on the latest movies, or playing casual games, the Fire TV Stick has you covered. The device also supports various music streaming services, such as Spotify and Pandora, allowing you to enjoy your favorite tunes with ease.
For sports enthusiasts, the Fire TV Stick provides access to live sports channels and streaming services, ensuring you never miss a game. With the ability to customize your home screen and organize your favorite apps and channels, the Fire TV Stick offers a personalized entertainment experience tailored to your preferences.
