Cheap Amazon Fire TV deals, sales and offers from Currys, Amazon and Argos

When it comes to simply the best value for money for your streaming video content, fewer prices come close to the Amazon Fire TV Stick does. It used to be that if you wanted a smart TV, you would have to be ready to spend big. Now, for few less than £50 for the top Amazon Firestick package, we all can have a smart tele, all you'll be needing is a spare HDMI and a cheap Amazon FireStick.

Larger expensive set top boxes are a bit of a thing of the past, Apple TV, Roku 3 and Amazon Fire TV used to be the top choices, that was until Google Chromecast came on the market and set the benchmark for video streaming to your TV. So Amazon brought out the Amazon Fire Stick to rival the Chromecast and it does a pretty good job of doing this.

The Amazon FireStick is a similar size to the Chromecast, and it's equally as powerful too, however it does come with a fairly decent remote control. One thing we always thought the chromecast was lacking. It terms of content, there's everything you expect from a video streaming device. Netflix, YouTube and Spotify, while Amazon's Prime Instant Video and Amazon TV are the top of the list for obvious reasons.

When compared to it's rivals it's fairly well priced we feel. The value for money is their as we feel that it is a quality product. It's £5 more than the Google Chromecast, but the remote and Amazon Prime subscription make up for this, we feel.

As well as that being a big plus for some, the fact you need an Amazon Prime account can also be a big negative for others. We feel on the hole is makes the Amazon FireStick a good, low price video streaming service.

Just because the Amazon FireStick is an Amazon product, you can still get on the Google Play store and use the apps that are available there too. You also get a free 30 day Amazon Prime trail, but you pretty much need Amazon Prime so all you're getting is 30 days free before you have to start paying for it.

When it comes to the build and design of the Amazon Firestick, well if it's not broke don't fix it. It is built very much in the same mould as the Chromecase and for a good reason. Is does the job without being seen. It's a small 9cm long and 2.5cm wide shape that plugs into your HDMI port on the TV and also the USB port for power. If your TV doesn't have a USB port, then there is an adaptor in the kit and you can plug it in to a power source. The down side of this is that it can no longer be hidden behind your TV as well.

Once it's all plugged in, you're away to go. Set-up is so simple, as with all these devise. Once you've connected them to your WiFi, it's simply a case of signing in and away you go.

The choice between a low priced Google Chromecast and an cheap Amazon Fire Stick is really down to user preference. They both do a great job and are both cheaper alternatives to Sky and other set top box set-ups. They provide excellent value for money when it comes to streaming video and audio content to your TV.

When it comes to getting some good sales deals and money saving offers on a Amazon FireStick, then you should head over to Argos. They are offering £10 off the Amazon FireStick right now. This brings it more in line with the Chromecast and gives you even better value.
