Upgrade your Amazon Fire Stick while it's at 'lowest ever price', says TV expert

Amazon’s huge Prime Day sale is now in full swing, with shoppers able to bag big savings on top tech. One of our favourite deals is on Amazon’s popular streaming gadget, the Fire TV Stick, which upgrades a TV to the ultimate entertainment system packed with films, TV shows, music, games and more.

There’s several different models of the Fire Stick, but it’s the 4K Max version that’s at its ‘lowest price ever’ in the sale and gives users the most bang for their buck. The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is now almost half price at £39.99, a huge drop from its usual £69.99 price tag at retailers including Amazon, Currys and John Lewis.
