Nowadays, probably 80 per cent of AV enthusiasts have Smart TVs as their display medium. When the Fire stick was introduced at that time, the penetration of smart TVs was not so dense. It was ok, to use the Firestick then if someone doesn't had a smart TV, he can just plug in the stick and enjoy contents on the various OTT apps. But with the advent of smart TVs all over, does the the Firestick hold a relevance. I have Sony X-8500 which is smart TV, and it contains all the popular apps like NF, Amazon prime, Youtube, Hotstar etc and moreover we can download app too on it. I had thought of buying the stick, but then dropped the idea thinking what edge would the Amazon Fire stick have over my existing Smart TV. Would our members shed light over it if I am missing something.
