Beam me up to 4K: Your ultimate sci-fi collection for less than $25 on Prime Day

There are heaps of streaming services available, and if you're anything like us, you'll have subscriptions to several — Apple TV for Severance, Disney+ for Avatar, Hulu for Solar Opposites, and more. What you need is something where you can access them all in one place, on any device, whether you're home or away.

This is where the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Plus comes in. If you have a device with an HDMI port, you can plug in this USB-esque device and log in to your favorite streamers with the supplied remote. No separate power source is required (unlike the Roku Ultra).

Sure, the user interface isn't as clean as we'd like, and is quite ad-heavy, but if you can bear with it, it's a small price to pay for such a nifty device that will become your new favorite entertainment-providing travel companion.

We've got you covered with reviews and rankings of the best telescopes, binoculars, star projectors, cameras, drones, Lego, streaming and more.The device is compact and neat, which differs from the slightly clunky, ad-heavy home screen.Amazon

There are several versions of the Amazon Fire TV Stick, so be sure to choose the one that suits you (especially when there's so little price difference between them at the moment).

The main difference between this model, the 4K Plus, and the 4K Max, currently selling for $34.99, is that the latter offers 'Fire TV Ambient Experience,' which transforms your TV into an Alexa-powered smart display. Display your own photos, widgets like weather, calendars, stick notes and more.

Key features: 4K Ultra HD streaming, Dolby Atmos audio, Alexa Voice Remote, 8GB storage

Product launched: 2026

Price history: The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Plus usually retails for around $50, but because it's Amazon's own product, it's regularly discounted, especially during events like Prime Day and Black Friday. If you don't have the cash in the bank right now, we're sure the price will dip again during the next big Amazon Sale.

Price comparison: Amazon: $24.99

Reviews consensus: The Fire TV Stick 4K Plus has earned 4.6 out of 5 stars from more than 110,000 reviews on Amazon - seriously impressive. Users praise its ease of use, reliability, picture quality, value for money and speed. The remote control has mixed reviews, with this seemingly retracting from its otherwise glowing reviews. It's worth noting that the remote can be purchased separately if you ever need a replacement. Remember, the Fire TV Stick has voice control too.

✅ Buy it if: You want a portable means of streaming all of your favorite shows from one cable-free device. Take it on vacation to your hotel, buy one for the guest bedroom, or simply keep it plugged into your TV at home.

❌ Don't buy it if: You don't have a device with an HDMI port (e.g., a MacBook Air) and don't want to have to use an adapter.
