Amazon has updated quite a bit in this version of its popular stick. The new design is sleeker, and Fire TV Stick 4K Max gets you a streaming experience that’s tailored to your liking. You can browse dedicated content categories to find what you’re looking for quickly, plus pin your favorite streaming applications to access them with minimal effort every time you turn the TV on.

There’s support for Alexa+ (free for Prime members), which is a smarter, more efficient version of the OG Alexa. You can ask it to search through apps, and it can even create personalized recommendations after learning your interests. So if you’re someone who likes to watch crime thriller series, it’s going to automatically recommend all the popular options you’re likely going to love. This way, you’ll always have something new to watch without scrolling through huge lists.
