Amazon has put their all-new 2020 Firesticks on sale for the first time as part of Alexa’s Birthday Deals. The Fire TV Stick Lite is on sale for $17.99 and the 3rd-gen Fire TV Stick is on sale for $27.99. The main difference between the two is the included remote. See this article for a detailed breakdown of all the differences. The $10 extra for the Fire TV Stick 3 gets you a remote that can control your TV and Soundbar’s power and volume. If you’re considering the Fire TV Stick 3, you’re probably better off getting the Fire TV Stick 4K which is on sale for $29.99.

Bought 2 Lite sticks. Wish all the Fire TV devices came with the live TV button… very handy.
Not sure why someone would buy the $27.99 3rd gen stick over the $29.99 4K stick. Amazon must have significantly less inventory of the 3rd gen stick.
