    If only it has Binge and Kayo apps without the hassle of side-loading

      Side loading isn't that hard with Aptiode TV.

      I got Binge working on mine with a bit of mucking around, but it's crazy that Binge still isn't officially supported.

    • Ulysses31 on 15/06/2022 - 19:52

      If this is hard, I can’t recommend living. I guarantee you’ll die of it.

    Can't beat the last expired deal.

  • mapax on 15/06/2022 - 14:06

    Are the current remotes meant to have an led light or something in the top right corner?
    Images online seem to suggest they do however the 4K Max I purchased doesn’t have anything in that corner of the remote.

      No led on mine.

      • mapax on 15/06/2022 - 14:48

          I gave you a bum steer.

          I just hit the Alexa button and a blue flashing LED appeared under the plastic in the top right.

          Well I'll be ….

          • mapax on 15/06/2022 - 16:03

            @MS Paint: Thanks for the update. I just tried it and there it is. I’ve never pushed that button before.

            • MS Paint on 15/06/2022 - 16:09

              @mapax: Same and I can't see myself ever pushing it again.

  • Kill Joy on 15/06/2022 - 14:08

    Only dealbreaker for me with Fire sticks is no cast support

    • thangcuoi on 15/06/2022 - 14:10

      Yes, but AllCast works fairly well as a compromise.

      • Kill Joy on 15/06/2022 - 14:12

        does that allow me for example to cast youtube to the firestick? Thats my primary use case.

        • madpig83 on 15/06/2022 - 14:16
          +3

          Just use the YouTube app directly?

        • bio on 15/06/2022 - 14:26

          You don't need AnyCast, the Fire Stick does cast to YouTube natively, but it is a bit problematic. See my other comment.

          • superforever on 15/06/2022 - 14:57

            @bio: FireStick can't do cast only mirroring not the same.

            • bio on 15/06/2022 - 15:21

              @superforever: YouTube app will automatically detect your Fire TV and cast the selected video. It has nothing to do with screen mirroring.

              • superforever on 15/06/2022 - 16:00

                @bio: Thanks, didn't know it can do cast, just tested also work with Netflix app and PC chrome browser but not Prime video

                • bio on 15/06/2022 - 16:28

                  @superforever: Weird, it worked for me with Prime as well, but it was so inconsistent that I had to return the device.

                  • superforever on 15/06/2022 - 16:30

                    @bio: It didn't show up my firestick only google chromecast TV

                    • bio on 15/06/2022 - 16:31

                      @superforever: That was my problem too, it's basically a hit-and-miss. ChromeCast on the other hand is fairly stable.

                        +1

                        @bio: This time suddenly appear, for $39 I will keep it.

    • Detrimental on 15/06/2022 - 16:48

      I’m using AirScreen on my Firestick which works well for both casting and airplay.

        Thanks, got the chromecast with google tv for $59!

  • LuminousPickle on 15/06/2022 - 14:13

    Nice!

  • ozizoy on 15/06/2022 - 14:15

    It’s well worth the price. I use it for streaming device + smart features for dumb tv. Very responsive almost comparable to apple tv or Nvidia shield tv.

  • bio on 15/06/2022 - 14:18

    FYI I bought this from the previous deal and returned it to Amazon and bought a Google TV with ChromeCast from JB Hi-Fi instead.

    It kept disappearing from the network and neither the remote control app nor YouTube/NetFlix/Prime casting worked. It only "woke up" after I launch an app using the (physical) remote, which was annoying. I don't know if the device I got was a lemon but that was my experience. Otherwise it's a great device (Google one is great too).

    I liked Google TV a bit more since you can cast anything via ChromeCast and Play Store is better (Kodi can be installed from the store instead of sideloaded).

    • Irishness on 15/06/2022 - 14:21

      I got same, previously had an old firestick then went raspberry pi then foxtel now box, so far the chromecast is miles better, impressed with speed of response

    • R3XNebular on 15/06/2022 - 14:22

      Had same issue.

    • mapax on 15/06/2022 - 14:32

      I can open the YouTube app on my phone and it will then wake the Fire TV which turns my TV on, the app on my phone will then show the video I was part way through watching on the Fire TV.

  • atom1319 on 15/06/2022 - 14:25

    I never can side load Google Photos it sucks.

  • Rimus on 15/06/2022 - 16:14

    I’ll share my $0.02, if that helps someone.

    Purchased from JB at the last offer $59, wish if I purchased from Amazon so I could easily return.

    I have plugged this directly to BenQ W2700 HDMI 2 port. When the projector wakes up it doesn’t show the fire stick, says no input. Need to physically disconnect the power to fire stick and reconnect to get the input to the projector. It is a real bum, climbing on chairs to plug power cable.

    Worst case is the wifi. When the speed test done it shows over 100Mbps, but takes ages to load a movie (with any app) and often says poor speed.

    I’ve got Chromecast with Google TV, which doesn’t have any wifi or speed issues.

    • mapax on 15/06/2022 - 16:27

      If you haven’t had it for an excessive period of time take it back to JB and tell them it’s faulty.

      • Rimus on 15/06/2022 - 16:44

        Yeah, should give a try.

    • kfcfatfat on 15/06/2022 - 16:56

      You can always go back to the manufacturer for warranty. Have you spoke to Amazon about your problem? Maybe they will send you a replacement unit?

    • alex27 on 15/06/2022 - 17:30

      May need a new router.

  • PhoenixAUS on 15/06/2022 - 16:43

    I’m having similar issues, using a wifi analyser app on the stick itself it shows great speeds, but Plex just continuously buffers and the bandwidth shown in Plex is terrible. I don’t recall having this issue on another firestick I have. In comparison I have no wifi / bandwidth issues with my Nvidia shield. Is it a dodgy unit, or a universal problem all Firesticks?

    • Detrimental on 15/06/2022 - 17:11

      Sounds like a dodgy unit, I got the Firestick max in the recent $59 deal and have no issues with Plex content or with streaming 4k from various providers.

      But my plex server pc is cabled to my wifi 6 router which is about 2 metres from the Firestick. So maybe that combination is just avoiding the issues you are having.

  • JuryWheel on 15/06/2022 - 16:57

    So any benefit to this vs a googletv? I guess if you are heavily tied into the prime eco system maybe?

    • JoelT on 15/06/2022 - 19:55

      Google TV definitely has the better UI & Chromecast support. Fire TV has a way better remote, wi-fi 6 support, and a more powerful processor = a bit snappier.

    $67 at Target and should be able to combine with $10 off by signing up to newsletter.
