Please keep in mind if you are using Bluetooth headphones with the max version there may be issues. When I connected my Bluetooth headphones it would glitch up when using the fire stick remote. extremely annoying.

I tried two different fire stick Max devices and it did the same thing. I also have the regular fire stick 4K and I have no issues with that one.

Only Fire stick worth owning. All the previous versions are slow as a snail. But many people complain that they all start slowing down after some time. Maybe a way Amazon is creating future sales, just like Apple and their aging batteries in iPhones intentionally causing slowdown/performance issues.

My year old 4K unit has started to crash and restart. Power cycling only fixes the issue. I'm guessing the ridiculously small 8GB of storage is the issue when caches get too big. I have sideloaded a cache cleaner that helps if I remember to run it daily.

For what's worth, I faced many issues trying to miracast using this Fire Stick MAX and read another person was also faced similar issues. Screen mirroring is very laggy, which is not the case with the roku.

Best thing about fire sticks is side loading the ad-free YouTube app.

SmartTube? Or is there another one?

Why would HD kill a sale after only a few hours? Very odd.

It's overheating. A solution is adding a NVMe heat sink.Instructions are at the red it firestick sub.
