Woot is currently running a sale on several Fire TVStick models. The Fire TV Stick 4K is on sale for $24.99, which matches the lowest price it has ever been. This deal is for a brand new device, but it includes the slightly older remote that does not have app shortcut buttons. Also available in new condition is the 3rd-gen Fire TV Stick for $19.99, which, once again, matches the lowest price that it has ever been. Like the Fire TV Stick 4K being offered, the 3rd-gen Fire TV Stick also comes with the older remote. Lastly, you can get the 2nd-gen Fire TV Stick for $11.99 WITHOUT a remote but I highly recommend you spend the extra $8 on the newer model that includes a remote. Shipping is free for Prime members.
The 2nd gen stick is overpriced because the most Amazon would give you for a trade in is $18 but you need to send in a remote too, so by the time you buy a remote you’re paying more than the trade in value. Plus you have to hack the external storage to move apps. It’s definitely worth an extra $8 for the 3rd gen stick to get a remote and be able to move apps seamlessly to external storage.
Plus the 3rd gen stick is much more responsive than the second gen stick.
