My Favorite Amazon Deal of the Day: Google TV Streamer 4K
The Google TV Streamer 4K is the latest version of Google’s smart set-top box. Rather than being hidden behind your TV, it now takes center stage, mounted on a stand. The Google TV Streamer 4K is currently available for $74.99 (originally $99.99). This is the lowest price since last summer, according to price tracking services .
First, Google released the Chromecast, an HDMI device that lets you stream content from your phone to your TV. Then, in 2022, the company released the Chromecast alongside Google TV, including Google’s operating system. Now, after completely discontinuing Chromecast, Google appears to have decided to take a new path: the new device is powered by Gemini (Google’s AI), has more memory, and faster performance, and costs twice as much.
The Google TV Streamer 4K features 32GB of storage, 4GB of RAM, and the ability to stream HDR content up to 4K at 60 frames per second. It also supports Dolby Vision and Atmos, and has Ethernet ports.
The Google operating system is identical to older models, but performance is significantly improved, according to a CNET review . While the storage is larger than previous models, it’s expandable via the USB-C port. This is my favorite streaming player, and it has the best OS of any I’ve tried. It’s installed on my home TV, and I recommend it to anyone looking for the best viewing experience, especially at such a low price.
