“Our mission at Fire TV is to reinvent what customers can expect from a smart TV experience.

We’re also excited to deliver Fire TV’s best-ever 4K experience for under £60 with the new Fire TV Stick 4K.”
All-New Fire TV Stick 4K Max—Now with the Fire TV Ambient Experience, plus more power, speed, and storage, for £69.99
The new Fire TV Stick 4K Max (2nd Gen) is the first streaming media player to come with the Fire TV Ambient Experience, and features an upgraded 2.0 GHz quad-core processor, making it Amazon’s smartest and most powerful streaming stick yet. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max is the industry’s first streaming stick to include support for Wi-Fi 6E, meaning customers with a compatible router can enjoy the smoothest streaming experience with lower latency, faster speeds, and less interference from other Wi-Fi-enabled devices in the home. With ultra-cinematic, vibrant 4K Ultra HD, and support for Dolby Vision, HDR, HDR10+, and immersive Dolby Atmos audio, the new Fire TV Stick 4K Max delivers Fire TV Stick’s best visual and audio experience yet.
Fire TV Stick 4K Max features 16GB of storage, doubling the previous generation’s capacity, and enabling customers to store even more apps and games directly on the device. It is also the first Fire TV Stick to come with the Alexa Voice Remote Enhanced, giving customers dedicated channel buttons and a “Recents” button for one-touch, instant access to their most recently used app or channel.
Fire TV Ambient Experience—Now available on the all-new Fire TV Stick 4K Max, and upgraded with hundreds of new pieces of free artwork
Previously only available on the Fire TV Omni QLED Series, the Fire TV Ambient Experience transforms the TV into a beautiful, always-smart display, and is now available to more customers for just £69.99 with the launch of the all-new Fire TV Stick 4K Max.
The Ambient Experience can turn your TV into an in-home art gallery, with no monthly subscription required. Simply ask Alexa or hold down the “Home” or “Alexa” buttons on the remote when not streaming to replace blank TV screens with beautiful artwork. Today, Amazon added hundreds of new images to a collection of more than 2,000 free, gallery-quality pieces of artwork, and expanded its collection to include artists from France, Spain, Italy, Japan, and Australia with art from notable institutions including Musée d'Orsay in Paris, Museo del Prado in Madrid, and Galleria d'Arte Moderna in Florence. Customers can also choose from motion graphics, landscape art, personalised and always-evolving dynamic art, and personal photos.
With the Fire TV Ambient Experience, customers can also see glance-able information like their schedule with Calendars and Reminders, leave Sticky Notes for family members, control smart devices like cameras, lights, or a Ring doorbell, play audio from services like Amazon Music, and Spotify.
