A great budget pick, this Fire Stick Lite isn't one to skip over. "This Amazon Fire Stick is easy to use. I appreciate the fact that it can manage my TV just as much as [my former] TV remote can (power on/off, volume) and the Alexa voice feature makes it possible to simply speak what I want, and it's done," says one reviewer.You can stream more than 300,000 free movies and TV shows with this basic Fire TV Stick model. It's a great choice for newbies to voice-activation,since all you have to do ispressa button on the remote to ask Alexa to find, launch, and control content from sports scores to programming—feel free to explain this to any giftee (Mom!) who's worried about Alexa listening all the time.
