Rank #4 in Best 4K Streaming Stick 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Spec Tables That Don't Add Up
STRONG LEAP-NOVA Streaming Stick 4K, Android 14, 32 GB
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The STRONG LEAP-NOVAUK Streaming TV Stick 4K sits at number four in this guide. It is a £69.99 HDMI dongle running Android 14 with the Google TV interface, listed with 2 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage, Dolby Vision, HDR10+, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, and rated 4.1 out of 5 from 114 ratings. On the headline hardware numbers this listing is the least muddled of the four: 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage are believable for a £70 Google TV stick, and the stated 3840 x 2160 pixels matches the 4K in the product name.
The contradictions here are in the smaller fields. Item Weight is given as 240 g — for something that plugs into an HDMI port and hangs off the back of a television, that is the weight of a small set-top box, not a stick. Box Contents lists a single item, 'Stick', yet a bullet further down the same page promises 'the included remote control with voice control'. Supported Internet Services names three apps (Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube) while another bullet claims the interface combines over 5,000 streaming apps. The 'Other Special Features' row repeats its entire contents twice in one field, and the rating breakdown does not cover the ratings: the five bars add up to 100, against the 114 ratings stated at the top of the page. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing for this product; we have not tested it ourselves.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Fantastic, easy set up,no restrictions, much better than Firestick... Easily side load apps via Downloader.”
Verified purchase“I bought this, a Fire TV box and a Fire TV Stick as I wanted to see what the differences were and what would work best for me and theres only so much reading reviews can do. This is the one out of all 3 that I am going to keep. It's fast, easy to use and has a nice layout. The added flexibility of the Play Store is a real bonus. I really thought I'd keep the Fire TV Stick but the remote I reach for every time is this one. I really wasn't expecting to like it more than the Fire TV Stick! The only wish I would have is to improve the remote, thats not as nice as the Fire TV Stick remote but its not the end of the world. The Fire TV box is vastly overpriced for what it is.”
