Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The positive: This new generaion fire stick is faster than our old stick. The old one has struggled with the new major update Amazon did and the buttons were worn. The updated processor and increased memory helps. It is really nice having the volume controls on the remote. The two batteries load in a more traditional way as well. The negative: I really wish they made the four quick buttons on the bottom programmable. We ditched Disney + and would much rather have it pull up youTube, HMO Max, or Discorvery +. Oh well. I don't like the new update. I now have to go to the Amazon Prime app to see my purchased videos, where before it was built into the main menu. I also have zero interest in the live TV and believe that is what was dogging down the old Fire Stick. The ad space on top is also a lot bigger and when I search a movie it's not telling me if Netflix has it. I ended up purchasing a movie to watch that ended up being on Netflix.
