Is the Fire TV Stick 4K Max worth it over the standard Fire TV Stick 4K?

Yes if you have a Wi-Fi 6E router or want more storage and a faster chip. The standard 4K Stick covers the same HDR formats for less demanding setups.

Do I need a 4K TV to use it?

No. It works with 1080p TVs and scales down, but you only get 4K, Dolby Vision and HDR10+ on a compatible TV.

Does it need a power outlet?

Yes. It draws power through the included micro-USB cable and adapter, so plan for a nearby outlet or a TV USB port.

Can I connect it to the internet with an Ethernet cable?

Not directly. It is Wi-Fi only; wired networking requires a separate Ethernet adapter for Fire TV.

The Fire TV Stick 4K Max, the Alexa Voice Remote and two AAA batteries. An HDMI extender is also included for tight ports.

Does it work with Netflix and YouTube?

Yes, both are available, along with Prime Video, Disney+, Max and most major streaming apps.
