This really surprises me. The Fire Stick 4K Max doesn't even have enough power to hardware decode locally streamed video and is barely powerful enough to operate smoothly (I own one so I speak from experience), with the regular 4K version being underpowered with a tiny amount of storage. It's also interesting that the much more capable (and horridly overpriced) Fire TV Cube isn't listed...I'm not expecting these things to work well.
