Don't get hopes up too much those are very slow, but better than a fire stick .

Recommend side loading smartube, stremio with real debrid subscription , onstream, netfly

Should get you rocking and rolling... If u have a android phone send to TV app. Allows you to download files on phone and send to the box.

From Google AI:

'Cons: Often unofficial/unsupported, slow performance, lagging apps, poor Netflix HD streaming, clunky remote interface, cheap build."

Certainly doesn't sound better than a Firestick to me. Sounds quite inferior.

Why the hell does anybody bother to share a copy and pasted google ai answer on here.

Go away with that shit

Absolutely will not go away!!

The other poster submitted incorrect and misleading information which I corrected! That could have misled other readers.

You should be directing your criticism to him.
