Your first streaming device doesn't need to be the fanciest option — it needs to fit how you'll actually use it.
The number of streaming device options can feel overwhelming for a first-time buyer, but narrowing the decision down to a few practical questions makes it much simpler.
If your TV is already a Smart TV, you may not need a separate device at all — see our explainer on what a Smart TV is and how it works.
Streaming sticks are generally the most affordable entry point, while boxes like the Fire TV Cube cost more but add extra performance and features.
If you only plan to run a couple of apps regularly, there's little reason to pay for a more powerful device than you need.
