Fire TV Stick HD drops to £4.57 in Prime Day deal stack

Shoppers can get the Amazon Fire TV Stick HD for £4.57 by combining its current sale price with a TopCashback sign-up bonus and cashback. The device has dropped from £59.99 to £19.99 ahead of the Prime Big Deal Days Sale on October 6-7, but new TopCashback members can stack a £15 bonus (when spending £15 or more) with cashback on Amazon devices to bring the effective cost down to £4.57 — a saving of £55.42 off the non-sale price.

How the deal works

Only new TopCashback members can claim the £15 bonus; existing members would pay £19.57 after cashback. A similar deal applies to the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Plus, which drops from £34.99 to £19.26 using the same method.

The Fire TV Stick HD is described as Amazon's best-selling device, with more than 5,000 customers ordering one in the past month. It plugs into a TV's HDMI port and provides access to streaming apps like Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ and HBO Max, as well as free content on BBC iPlayer, ITVX and YouTube.

Features and alternatives

The new generation HD stick is said to be the 'fastest ever' and features a redesigned interface for quicker content discovery. It streams in Full HD up to 1080p with Dolby-encoded audio, supports WiFi 6, and includes 8GB of storage, an Alexa voice remote and gaming from Amazon Luna and Xbox Game Pass.

Competing devices include the Roku HD Streaming Stick at Argos, which costs £29.99, and Sky Glass TVs, which start at £7 for the Sky Glass Air with a monthly contract. To get the Fire TV Stick HD for £4.57, shoppers must sign up to TopCashback, search for Amazon Devices, click 'Get Cashback Now', and shop as usual. Cashback appears in the TopCashback account within seven working days of purchase and becomes payable after Amazon pays TopCashback the commission.

Shopper reviews

The Fire TV Stick HD has a 4.2-star rating from 4,300 reviews. One customer said: "Such a great, clever device. It's turned my old TVs into smart TVs. Instantly connects to my Alexa profile, connects to the TV via HDMI and is able to control the volume using the TV's pre-existing interface. Has everything we need, including saving money buying a new TV."

Another review noted: "Great value and really easy to use. It was a good price, easy to set up and getting it connected to the TV didn't take long at all. The remote is responsive [and] the Netflix, Disney+ and YouTube buttons are especially handy. Everything has worked well so far and streaming is smooth." Some users reported that certain programmes take 'a while' to load, while others praised the quick setup and reliable performance.
