It's probably an HDMI stick if it's in the HDMI slot (so not really a USB device).

Amazon's Fire TV Stick will run Kodi if it is side loaded, but they aren't a great performing solution, and Amazon don't really go out of their way to support Kodi and similar apps.

You can get countless Android HDMI TV sticks - but they're mostly all a bit rubbish.

There are some Intel HDMI TV sticks (like the Intel Compute Stick) - which will either run Windows 8.1/10 or Linux - but they also have their limitations.

What are your main aims for your Kodi use? Playing back content from a NAS or USB local storage?

It sounds as the Amazon Fire Stick. And no, do not know of any stock USB device with Kodi pre-loaded.

if you have a network share, it is a lot easier to just use "ES File Explorer" which is available in Amazon Store. Or even without network share, see following video.
