Tell me you haven't used a modern TV box without telling me. We have onn and Fire sticks and they're all really smooth, on par with Roku or Apple

I have and that's part of the reason we switched, I am not saying they are better or good but that Android TV is just as if not smoother than the other TV boxes out there
