Amazon’s Fire TV stick is not a good-looking streaming dongle. But as the saying goes, do not judge a book by its cover. This 142-mm long stick streams content in 4K resolution, has an intuitive interface and comes with built-in Alexa support. You also get a remote for controlling basic TV functionality as well as the soundbar. Or you can operate it using the Fire TV app. The Stick plugs into a television’s HDMI port and is powered using a microUSB port (comes with cable and adapter). If the TV is wall-mounted, you may have to use the HDMI extender (bundled) or plug it into a port at the side.
