🏆 What Experts Say

“Fire Sticks accumulate cache and background processes over time, which significantly impacts performance. Regular
maintenance like clearing cache, force-stopping apps, and disabling unnecessary features can improve performance by
50-70%. Ethernet connection is the single best upgrade for streaming quality.”
