90% of ones I've pre-loaded have just been fire stick lite's. They're about £35. Work perfectly fine.
Few people have requested ultra 4k.

Cheers, do you get many people contacting you with issues throughout the 12 months? |

Very interested chap. I’m a complete newbie to these kind of things. Just to clarify will this cover me for Swindon games home and away or do I need an Ifollow account. I’ll be on a Mac rather than PC but I’m guessing no software is need to download? |

Yes it covers you. I watched every away game on it last season. PM me |

Interested.
Can it go into a tv or just a laptop?
Would a 10 year old laptop be ok with it?

Any TV with a USB Drive? I'm asking as such because am I right in thinking that the Firestick/similar only needs the WiFi/Hotspot/Data/Broadband/Fibre signal. Basically I'm asking if any modernish monitor would be fine to plug into? Also, DV asks a good question and how is it easier with a TV than via a laptop? Finally, does this include overseas networks {esp US} like AMC, HBO, Max, etc? I'm not fussed if I have to use a VPN but curious if the sticks are loaded with those types of channels too?  |

Sorry if I’m being dense but how does it work? I plug it into my tv (if I can?) and then what? |

As far as I know you plug it in the TV then use the Firestick remote to access all channels

The firestick plugs into a standard HDMI port which outputs video/sound. It connects to the internet via WiFi. Presumably, Pericardinho then side loads a dodgy app + VPN which shows you the footy etc
