I even tried to contact seller to ask question but I can’t find seller information...

 

Fire stick 

1. Dolby sound is not supported. If there’s no sound, please turn off Dolby Digital in your device.(Settings > Display & Sounds > Audio > DolbyDigital Output > and then turn Dolby Digital (OFF); 2.When connect with iPhone, you need an extra Lightning to HDMI adapter (not included).When connect with android phone, an extra MHL-HDMI adapter (not included) is required. (Note: Android phone need to support MHL function) see less

avoid the Fire Stick. It's overly unstable and starts restarting on its own at random after awhile.

 

I got one last year and it started doing that after a few months; got my free replacement sent to me in November and the replacement started doing the same at the beginning of this month. I've talked to a few co-workers that have a fire stick and they've experienced similar issues with theirs. I had the 4K stick I'm not sure about them though.

 

It's cheap for a reason it seems; I'm betting it overheats damaging itself over time because there's no ventilation for the chip.

 

I finally caved and purchased a Nvidia Shield TV and couldn't be happier; it's one of the top rated on the market for a reason. It runs great and has everything I need on it.

It's a little more pricey at $149 but completely worth it for the quality; it even has a little internal fan for proper cooling/circulation, fan is completely silent too.

Plus Nvidia Geforce Now game streaming on it is a good bonus :)

    • Exciting! It’s amazing how hearing Japanese can naturally enhance the perceived quality of any experience or product.
    • Your other comment in another article says otherwise, namely "Microsoft veteran wants to replace every single line of C/C++ code with Rust and AI".
    • Sued and... exonerated. Oh, they learned a lesson alright. They learned that anyone who uses the word "antiturst" in conjunction with "Microsoft" is an idiot, even if that person is Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson. That judge ruined the image of the US justice system. Microsoft Edge has a 5.14% market share. Also, Windows is no longer the #1 OS. None of this constitutes a monopoly. Google Chrome, however, has 70.25% share. Also, Google's Android is the #1 OS. Now that's closer to a monopoly.
