Amazon has already started to mark down its in-house made gear for Black
Friday, and some of the best deals so far are on its streaming devices. The
Fire TV Stick 4K Max, the company's most powerful streaming dongle, has
dropped to a new low of $33. That's a 45 percent discount off its original
$60 price tag. This compact streamer supports 4K content and comes with an
enhanced Alexa Voice Remote and Wi-Fi 6E support. You can, of course, use it
to access Amazon Prime Video, along with Netflix, Disney+ and all your
favorite services.

While the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is a good option for streaming, we also
use it for something a bit different: playing retro games. Our senior
reporter Jeff Dunn bought one to play games from the PS1, Game Boy, Genesis,
old arcade games and more. He finds it works much better than having to lug
around any bigger devices. However, using your Fire TV Stick 4K Max to play
old games requires a bit of setup so, if you're interested in trying it, may
I direct you to Dunn's helpful guide here.

Amazon's Fire TV Cube is also discounted as part of a larger sale on Fire TV
devices for Black Friday. Right now, you can pick up the streaming device for
29 percent off, dropping to $100 from $140. The Cube is your pick if you want
access to ethernet and hands-free use with Alexa. It's more powerful than the
4K Max, but, for the price difference, it's a tough call if it's worth it.
