Overview

A living room TV with an HDMI input gains streaming apps through this box style player. It connects to the network over Wi-Fi or Ethernet, and the voice remote handles search and control.

A box form with Ethernet as well as Wi-Fi suits a TV placed where wireless signal is weak, and the listing names several included cables. The limit is the short list of named services, so a favorite app outside that list needs a check before purchase.

Who it's for

A living room or bedroom TV with a free HDMI input is the setup this player serves. Owners of a television that already has streaming built in, or anyone who needs a service missing from the listing, should look at their options first.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Ethernet and Wi-Fi both listed
  • Several streaming services named
  • Wide codec support listed
  • Cables listed in the box
Cons
  • Named services list is short
  • Bluetooth purpose not described

Performance notes

Picture quality depends on the TV and on the stream, since the player outputs up to the listed resolution. A wired Ethernet link avoids Wi-Fi interference for steady streaming, while Wi-Fi suits TVs far from the router. Codec support decides which streams play smoothly.
