We have a fire stick lite which is worse than useless. Can you please advise me which is the best one to get to be able to watch English tv and catchup. Thank you.

Hi

I’ve a firestick 4k, I saw a big difference from the lite version when I replaced it. Loads the apps much faster and seems to play the stream with less buffering.

There’s an updated version now in the form of the 4K Max which should increase the performance further. All on offer on Amazon at the moment with Black Friday.

I agree with flipflops, the 4k firestick is very fast. Don’t forget that to view uk tv you will need a VPN (i use Digibit) and there are a number of low cost apps that are worth checking out.

We purchased the fire stick max. But, can’t get bbc itv and such. We do have a vpn which works fine on the old fire stick and tv. What am I doing wrong. Any help appreciated. Thank you.
