Bengaluru, India—19 May 2026: Amazon has announced the launch of the all-new Fire TV Stick HD in India. This is Amazon’s fastest HD streaming stick yet, delivering over 30% faster performance on average than the previous generation. It provides customers access to full HD streaming with HDR10+ and Wi-Fi 6 support, a slimmer, more portable design, and a new Fire TV experience, redesigned for faster, more organised navigation. With Fire TV Stick HD, customers can stream lakhs of movies and TV episodes across content providers and enjoy Xbox cloud gaming without the need for a console (subscription fees may apply).

“Customers expect their TV streaming experience to be fast and responsive—apps that load quickly, content that’s easy to find, and streaming that’s smooth and lag-free. Our latest Fire TV Stick HD delivers exactly that. It’s over 30% faster on average than the previous generation and comes with our new, faster Fire TV interface for seamless streaming. It’s also our slimmest, most portable Fire TV Stick yet, designed to fit neatly behind a TV, offering a clutter-free setup,” said Sayantani Choudhuri, Head of Fire TV, Amazon India. “From performance to design, we’ve built this device to offer a streaming experience that’s fast, smooth, and convenient. We’re excited to bring it to our customers in India.”

Enjoy fast HD streaming performance with quicker app launches
Fire TV Stick HD delivers noticeable speed improvements compared to previous HD models. It is more than 30% faster on average than the previous generation, which means it turns on faster and opens apps more quickly. It provides access to 1080p full HD streaming with HDR10+ and comes with Bluetooth 5.3 support and Wi-Fi 6 for reliable and better-quality video streaming, even with slower internet connections

Take the streaming experience anywhere with the slimmest Fire TV stick yet
The new Fire TV Stick HD is Amazon’s slimmest streaming stick yet—about 30% slimmer than other sticks in the Fire TV range. It can be powered through a TV’s USB port via Direct Power, fitting more neatly behind the TV with no need for a wall adapter. The new device is also designed to fit easily into a carry-on bag or in small pockets so that customers can take it on-the-go and continue to stream their favourite content while traveling.

Spend less time searching, more time streaming
Fire TV Stick HD comes with the new Fire TV experience that is redesigned to be cleaner, faster, and better organised with dedicated categories for movies, TV shows, free, and live content, helping customers get to what they want to watch, fast. It also makes smart home controls easily accessible within the interface, making it convenient to manage and operate Alexa-compatible smart appliances, such as ACs, geysers, fans, and lights.

Earlier in 2026, Amazon also rolled out its redesigned Fire TV mobile app in India. The updated app allows customers to browse and discover content directly from their smartphones, manage their watchlist on-the-go, and play titles on their TV remotely—all with a refreshed look and feel that matches the new Fire TV interface.

Get easy access to all entertainment in one place
With Fire TV Stick HD, customers can access lakhs of movies and TV show episodes across thousands of apps on the Appstore, such as Prime Video, Netflix, JioHotstar, YouTube, Zee5, and more (subscription fees may apply). They can also enjoy free/ad-supported content, which also includes live content such as sports matches, news, and more. The Alexa Voice Remote makes discovering and launching content easy through voice commands to Alexa or by using the remote’s pre-set buttons.

Fire TV Stick HD also brings cloud gaming to Fire TV HD streaming devices for the first time, helping customers enjoy their favourite Xbox games without any need for a console. By pairing the new streaming stick with a compatible Bluetooth-enabled controller, customers can access and play hundreds of cloud-enabled games directly through the Xbox app on Fire TV Stick HD (requires Xbox Game Pass subscription).

Pricing and Availability
Customers can buy the Fire TV Stick HD at ₹4,999 on Amazon.in, Blinkit, Flipkart, Swiggy Instamart, and Zepto, and will be available in retail stores soon.
