    Excellent device well worth the 50 bucks much smoother than the first Gen 4k max fire stick I sold and replaced with this storage, storage expansion over USB 3.0,hands free search well worth it.

    Just purchased and pleased so far. Was hoping he would go into using the USB port to see if there are any limitations. Havent tried it myself yet. No complaints on the remote. I like the backlight.The 32GB of stoarge is a big deal. Suprised he didnt mention that since most budet boxes barely have room after installing a couple apps.

    I don't have the same remote as you, mine also doesn't click at all I think it's got membranes inside, I'd have to do a teardown to see but I noticed its the same type of remote as the mecool device, but I also don't have the free TV button either 🤷‍♂️

    I can't get the "onn. Google TV 4K Pro Streaming Device (New, 2024)" to recognize four of my USB external drives, telling me they're corrupt. Three of them are 2 & 4TB Crucial X10 (exFAT, unpowered), and Sandisk 4TB (exFAT, unpowered). The fourth drive is an 8TB Seagate backup drive (NTFS, powered). The 2TB also failed to even be recognized while connected to a powered dock. However, the Onn. does recognize a 256GB Sandisk thumb drive (exFAT). Do you have any ideas on how to get my portable SSDs working? I'll probably return the Onn. if I don't get it figured out soon. Thank you!

  • @hunterjorschumb8327

      Yes -- there's a physical switch on the side. When you disable it with the switch, the four LEDs on top turn red, and stay on/red as long as disabled. If you re-enable it with the switch, the LEDs briefly turn white, then turn off until the assistent is triggered.

    I wished Roku had more radio stations on their app. I never listen to any of radio stations listed. Even the IHeart radio station listings don't have my favorite radio stations. One of my favorite reasons for having IHEART is Yacht Rock is 70s-80s music. Like, Chicago, Boston, and Debbie Brothers, just ro name a few groups.

      Sony does not update it’s software as often. They are not in the streaming device business. It’s always better to separate technical functions

    I think I’ll pass and stick with the previous device. I’ll wait until they standardize on a remote. Backlight is a nice feature and from reading the comments there are three different remotes “free” button, no free button and backlight. Makes you wonder about quality control. Luke, I’m with you the click on the remote every time you hit the okay button would drive me crazy.

    Why get a streaming player like this when most if not all tvs are smart tvs they have all the apps you want

    • @ericn.wilson2345
      @ericn.wilson2345 Před 2 měsíci +5

      My experience is that baked-in "smart" functions are not only woefully underpowered in processor terms, but the worst case scenario is that the manufacturer might push an update which not only breaks app functionality, but also the TV itself. I have an example.
      Awhile ago, Vizio had one of those great-in-theory ideas to fold the free streaming options and OTA television into the same on-screen guide...and to make that the ONLY guide. It made things sluggish, but at first it was usable. One night during an Internet outage, I was unable to receive antenna television because the TV wouldn't allow the tuner to work unless there was an Internet connection, because that's where it was pulling the guide from. I rolled the firmware back to factory default before bed and will never enable wifi on it again. That turned out to be a call, since eventually they disabled the rollback feature because a lot of people were getting the same idea.
      Say what you will about streaming dongles, but if they stop working, they won't take your TV down with them.

    • @RJDA.Dakota
      @RJDA.Dakota Před 2 měsíci +2

      Because some of these so called smart TVs do go out of date. This way, if something goes down or out it’s then just switched out.

    • @Sacto1654
      @Sacto1654 Před 2 měsíci

      Well, dedicated streaming players can load streaming services a lot faster. This is especially true if you use the Apple TV box, where the speed of the on-board processor and plentiful RAM and local storage means really fast startup and navigation of most streaming services.

    • @g.e.5723
      @g.e.5723 Před 2 měsíci +1

      Agreed. My 65U8G is an Android TV, recently updated to basically a Google TV. I got this box thinking maybe I'm missing something. Nice looking box, seems well made, and it is quick, but, I returned yesterday and got my fifty bucks back.

    I'm not sold on this at all at $50, with most of it being Google TV. Recently got my first generation ONN streaming box back out, and compared to Roku's interface which is far from perfect, Google TV doesn't have much to offer. Apps? Roku every day of the week. If this was at the $30-35 price point, I might be slightly interested.
