Amazon’s Fire TV Stick 4K Max hits a record low price ahead of October Prime Day

October Prime Day is nearly here, but you can already save on some tech, including a few of Amazon’s own devices. Its most powerful streaming stick, the Fire TV Stick 4K Max, has dropped to a record low of $35. That’s 42 percent off and a return to the discounted price we saw during July Prime Day. This is part of a larger sale on Fire TV sticks and streaming boxes. The popular Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite is available for just $18, too. Incidentally, this model made our list of the best streaming devices, due to its low price and robust suite of features.

But the Fire TV Stick 4K Max is a great streaming device as well, with support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+. As the name suggests, it can stream content in 4K Ultra HD. The stick also supports Dolby Atmos audio, for added immersion.

This streaming stick includes the company’s proprietary Fire TV Ambient Experience, which allows users to display art and photos on the screen. This mimics the functionality of something like Samsung’s The Frame TV. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max also boasts 16GB of storage, for downloads, apps and games.

Speaking of games, this thing doubles as a highly functional cloud gaming box. It can stream Xbox games via Game Pass Ultimate and integrates with Amazon Luna. We singled out this device as a great option for retro gamers, as it can easily run many emulation apps. Finally, it ships with an upgraded remote that offers Alexa integration.
