Prime Video Review: New Upgrades, Quality Originals Are a Plus

The streamer improved its search function, making finding TV shows and movies easier than before. But it's still not perfect.

Prime Video review: One of Prime's best perks or just a neat treat?

Prime Video has big, beloved original shows, but it isn't quite on Netflix's level.

Some amazing shows and movies ; X-Ray mode is neat ; Live sports events and concerts ; Included in Prime membership

Library doesn't stack up to Netflix's ; Interface missing key options on non-Amazon devices

That said, I keep the Prime Video app on my streaming devices, even though I don't use it that often. You never know when Prime Video will drop a new season of something interesting, or have a licensed movie that you can't find anywhere else.
