According to Amazon, the new streaming stick also brings Xbox cloud gaming support to Fire TV HD devices for the first time, allowing users to stream games without a console. Amazon claims the latest Fire TV Stick HD delivers over 30 per cent faster performance and slimmest compared to the previous HD generation. ## Amazon Fire TV Stick HD: Price and availability - Price: Rs 4,999 The new Fire TV Stick HD is available through Amazon, Blinkit, Flipkart, Swiggy Instamart, Zepto and will also be available through offline retail stores soon. ## Amazon Fire TV Stick HD: Details According to Amazon, the new Fire TV Stick HD offers faster app launches and smoother navigation compared to the older generation. The streaming device supports 1080p Full HD playback with HDR10+ and includes Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity for improved streaming stability. The company has also introduced a redesigned Fire TV interface that focuses on quicker navigation and better organisation. The new layout separates content into dedicated categories such as movies, TV shows, free content and live TV. The interface also gives users quick access to smart home controls, allowing them to manage Alexa-compatible devices such as lights, fans, ACs, and geysers directly from the TV screen. The new Fire TV Stick HD is around 30 per cent slimmer than other Fire TV sticks, according to Amazon. The company said that the device can be powered directly through a TV’s USB port, reducing the need for an additional wall adapter and helping create a cleaner setup behind the television. **READ: Oneplus resumes OxygenOS 16 update rollout, boot-related issues fixed** Amazon is also positioning the device as a portable streaming solution for travellers. Users can carry the stick easily and plug it into compatible TVs while travelling to access their streaming services. The Fire TV Stick HD supports streaming apps including Prime Video, Netflix, JioHotstar, YouTube, and Zee5. Users can also access free and ad-supported content, including live sports and news channels. The included Alexa Voice Remote allows users to search and launch content using voice commands. One of the key additions is support for Xbox cloud gaming through the Xbox app. By connecting a compatible Bluetooth controller, users can stream cloud-enabled Xbox games directly on the Fire TV Stick HD without owning a console. However, the feature requires an Xbox Game Pass subscription. Earlier this year, Amazon also updated its Fire TV mobile app in India with a redesigned interface and remote streaming controls for connected Fire TV devices. **READ: Apple reveals WWDC26 schedule: Platform updates, AI Siri, and more expected** ### Amazon Fire TV Stick HD: Key features - Supports 1080p Full HD streaming - HDR10+ support included - Wi-Fi 6 connectivity - Bluetooth 5.3 support - Redesigned Fire TV interface with cleaner navigation - Dedicated tabs for movies, TV shows, free and live content - Built-in smart home controls for Alexa-compatible devices - Can be powered directly via TV USB port - Supports Prime Video, Netflix, JioHotstar, YouTube, Zee5 and more - Xbox cloud gaming support via Xbox app ### Related Stocks - [MSFU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSFU.US.md) - [AMZU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZU.US.md) - [AMZW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZW.US.md) - [CLOU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CLOU.US.md) - [AMZZ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZZ.US.md) - [AMZN.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZN.US.md) - [AAPL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPL.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Amazon.com Adds AI-Powered Alexa Responses to Shopping Search Bar](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286329275.md) - [Amazon Expands Health Coverage for 90,000 Delivery Associates across India](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286525772.md) - [Leaked images show Microsoft’s new Xbox Cloud Gaming controller](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286444169.md) - [Users turn to jailbreaking their older Kindles as Amazon ends support](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286647314.md) - [08:01 ETPrime Video and (STRING) Theory Launch Limited-Edition Off Campus Fragrance Collection](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286561252.md)
