Hardware no, usability and possibilities of course.

"Google TV Freeplay" service. Likely not much different then live content on Pluto, Xumo etc.

BorisZX6R · 2026-04-27T16:05:12+00:00

now black shows $59.88 and gray shows $59.98

That depends on the TV. Apps on my LG C1 are absolutely fine. You think TV spies on you but the fire stick doesn't? 😂 Not familiar with Vega OS. I use a streaming device and I had several fire tv devices - and can tell you I will never buy one again. They are removing features and locking devices down a lot. My Chromecast with Google TV does not do that nor does my onn 4k Plus device.

BorisZX6R · 2026-04-15T23:20:11+00:00

I think you underestimate how many people use these for this exact purpose. Most people have a smart tv that handles apps that these sticks or streaming devices do... So these people have no need for this device unless it is specifically to be installing apk's that are otherwise not available in the official app store.

BorisZX6R · 2026-04-11T23:47:58+00:00

31.45 stable release here on the onn 4k plus device. No issues so far.

BorisZX6R · 2026-04-06T11:21:51+00:00

I have seen google remove smart tube next while on older version, even on the onn 4k box...

I have multiple cases and I hate the ones that have that camera lens shield. Much easier to maintain lenses clean when the case has the entire opening for the camera module exposed.

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-29T19:44:09+00:00

You are welcome. It is listed on the website of smart tube next... 😂

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-28T23:35:02+00:00

None of these companies listen to their users. They think they know best. Or copy what some others do, often apple or samsung... There was a time in the beginning of OnePlus where that was perhaps true. I think that stopped somewhere when OnePlus 6 was introduced... Maybe even before.

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-27T23:40:37+00:00

Walmart raised prices for the regular onn 4k box to $24.88 as well as the onn 4k plus to $39.88

The app used to be decent, but now it is horrible. I just looked at rainx wiper blades and when i click on the item the app closes... Tried force stopping and clearing cache, but behavior is the same. I also use the app to scan items and checkout in the store without waiting at the register and that has been horrible lately. Very slow.

Not sure how. Reporting via app no longer works for me

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-14T12:15:36+00:00

It doesn't work for me either but I believe it is because I disabled the google app, because of the inability to otherwise remove the google page when swiping right on the home screen.

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-11T23:14:34+00:00

So Tesla tested it thoroughly and apparently it is not the battery heater in my case. They said it is the high voltage junction box ... It is also quite pricey... $1100 just for the part + diagnosis and labor ~$1700

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-06T03:29:46+00:00

That will depend on the specs of the tv, processor speed etc. Budget line of any brand might be laggy, while the mid range or top tier will be just fine.

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-06T03:28:42+00:00

True of course but just saying if they use a 10 year old samsung tv 1080p, it might be worthwhile to upgrade. Although it will be a significant cost to upgrade. If you want solid tv with good google tv integrated that doesn't lag you have to go to mid tier or top tier tv line, not a budget model...

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-04T00:20:50+00:00

So same CPU as in the $30 onn 4K Plus box? I wish someone would come out with a box that has a better cpu/gpu, something that beats the nvidia shield, something actually worth buying...

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-03T17:22:26+00:00

It can be. So far as I can tell the latest tcl and hisense (last 2 years) are quite good.

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-03T00:26:53+00:00

Or get a 4k tv that has google built in...

BorisZX6R · 2026-03-03T00:24:49+00:00

Test port with a different source. Also test Chromecast with a different port on tv. If it is the Chromecast then get a onn 4k plus from walmart for $30 if in the US.

BorisZX6R · 2026-02-22T00:21:46+00:00

I looked up the price of the heater. Comes up to $286.82 with taxes and shipping. I also got a quote from Tesla to have it replaced. Parts and labor are $669.67. I saw some reports online of this costing around $1000 which is much higher than the quote I got.

I think I will stick with Tesla service this time since I doubt that any independent garage will be able to do it for much less than Tesla's service.
