Ah, yes. Powered on a platform delivered by another large advertising data gobbling and monetizing conglomerate. Such privacy! But at least you have a 5 year old abandonware soc in the shield with no youtube hdr, no av1, no hdr10+, etc etc.

@lexlopez15 15 күн бұрын

@@TechDoctorUK it's great so far. The only slight problem i have with it is the google assistant. I had to disable it because my phone reacts to it as well. So since my phone is usually less than 5 ft away most of the time if i need it i use that to operate the streaming box, or i just use the remote...it's a shame that google doesn't give you the option to change the wake up word like amazon does.... Also, for some reason i can't get some 3rd party apps to show up on the home screen under "my apps" (like your task killer app and anality speed test app), i have to use a file manager to find the app and use it from there. As such i tend to use those apps a lot less than i did on the firestick, (until they disabled them of course). one thing i did notice right away is the sound output is a lot better than the firestick...it sounds much richer without me having to make any adjustments in the tv settings.

@lexlopez15 14 күн бұрын

@@TechDoctorUK not sure why my comment got deleted but i basically said i like it cause the audio seems much fuller and richer without me going into my tv settings...what i don't like about it is i'm not able to see some apps on the homescreen, including your task killer app...i have to use a file manager in order to access it.
