Although the Lite is a better value, the Amazon Fire TV Stick is another good choice for those who are still rocking regular HD.

Vibrant 4K cinematic experience - Unlock a complete 4K Ultra HD experience with support for leading HDR formats, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos Audio, access to the latest 4K content, and a lightning-fast processor, Fire TV Stick 4K enables you to experience the beauty of 4K Ultra HD movies and shows on your TV.
