Our Review :
1) You do not need to purchase a smart TV if you have this smart product. It serves all your smart TV needs.
2) If you want to watch TV via internet, if you want to enjoy TV show whenever you want, then this device is for you. Go ahead, Buy it.
Suggestion to developers of this product to add two more features into it.
1) One is add volume controller, so that we can increase or decrease the volume through the stick.
2) Another one is video resolution controller. It always picks the highest resolution and eats up the data pack fast.
Note :
1) There is a Youtube app for fire TV stick in the app store which will not support on it after 1 January 2018.
2) You should have a high speed WiFi internet connection at your place of using (Upto 10 Mbps recommendable) for best viewing quality.
Consideration :
1) It always run on highest quality, you will not get an option to watch videos at 480p if you want to save your data. (however if your connection speed it slow it will run on 480p or lower)
