Amazon Fires Up New Fire TV Stick 4K with Faster Performance
Amazon has refreshed its Fire TV Stick 4K streaming device. The new model promises faster app launches and content playback. It supports Wi-Fi 6, 4K 60fps video, and ships with Amazon's Vega OS out of the box.
The Fire TV Stick 4K is powered by a quad-core 1.7GHz processor and comes with 8GB of internal storage. It also features a redesigned Fire TV remote with tactile buttons that are easier to find by touch. The new remote has an asymmetrical shape, making it easier to hold.
The device supports Direct Power, allowing users to power the streaming stick directly through their TV's USB port instead of requiring a separate power adapter. Amazon is offering the new Fire TV Stick 4K for $60, with a limited-time promotion of $30 in the US. The new remote will be included in the box.
