Easiest setup: Apple TV / Amazon Fire TV Stick If you want a budget-friendly streamer, the Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite is the cheapest streaming model from Amazon yet at just $29.99 / £29.99 / AU$59.99. When looking for a brand-new streaming video player it's important to find one that's easy to setup – especially if you're buying it for someone who might not know their way around technology like you do. That being said, all four of the major streaming video players are pretty easy to setup. #ROKU AMAZON PHOTO APP CODE#Ĭhromecast and Roku require you to connect the players to the web using a code that appears on your screen, while Apple and Amazon can connect to the internet without requiring you to go to a website to register them first. While all four major players differ in the variety of ports offered along their backside, there's one common thread among all of them: the HDMI cable. What does that mean for you? Well, any TV you want to hook up to one of these players will require an HDMI port (except in the case of the Roku Express which can use standard composite RWY cables). You should also have a relatively fast internet connection (greater than 15mbps) if you plan on streaming 4K videos.
Winner(s): None of these players are hard to setup, but we quite liked how easy it was to setup both the Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV. Setup is one thing, but actually using the device on a day-to-day basis is another.Īfter using each interface for a number of years, we have to say, Roku probably has the best, most-intuitive interface.
