@@CordCuttersLI The stick is a loss leader, they make their money on selling you a power strip with surge protection. Come to think of it you should've a power strip to begin with.

The stick is loss leader for Walmart, they make their money selling you a power strip, preferably with surge protection. Better yet, he should have had a power strip with surge protection built-in to begin with. Also 100Mbs is plenty fast, according to Netflix you need 15Mbs to stream 4K and 5Mbs for HD. Also the the delay he experienced was probably a hiccup because the system was overwhelmed by those 100 million bits of data.
Does the 4K box come with a longer cord? Use the five bucks you save buying the stick and either get a longer HDMI cable or a power strip with surge protection.
Agree with the upgrade to the box. I have found that with both the third party apps are more of a pain to load than the fire stick but better than the TiVo device. I still put the fire stick 4k max as the leader in streaming. Please keep those updates coming 👍
I haven't tried the Onn devices yet, but since I've been having a great reunion of sorts with my Tivo Stick for the last few weeks- I can attest that the device still performs with great speed 2 years on. Especially when it comes to adding 3rd party apps, which I've been doing recently.
@MrNewktrane Have you had issues with your Tivo Stream 4K's remote disconnecting. I have two friends that have them, and I have to fix it for them often.
@@CordCuttersLINo, I haven't had any remote disconnect issues at all- from my 1st purchase 2 years ago- to my heavy usage these last few weeks. Since the Tivo remote is one of my favs with it's size & layout, I consider myself lucky now reading about this remote disconnect issues.

Yeah but it wont work pretty soon. Amazon is ditching android and soon they will update current versions of devices rendering them almost useless. Fire products used to be good before amazon decided to tell us what we can do to things we bought and paid for. Those days are coming to an end and the cube is a total waste of money in the first place
Hmm, I wouldn't be so sure about Jimmy's Cube being updated to Vega. As of now, all that is speculative. Nothing official announced and a complete OS change has never been attempted on devices like these. Regardless, his cube will work through 2027 as is.
I didnt mean cube would change os i meant newer models would have new os. I have had so many problems with fire devices lately its just really becoming more and more obvious they are silently retiring devices or just rendering them close to useless. Fine one day then next day two devices have same issues, one of which is fairly new and clean.
1:42 I think because it's processing "1k" video rather than "4k", much less space is needed. I remember using "high end" video cards from 20 years ago that only had 256 MB or RAM.
the only reason to use the included HDMI cable is if you need to get the stick away from the TV in the case of wifi interference. otherwise, I'm guessing it will plug directly into the HDMI port on the TV? I'm guessing you can't power the device off of a 5V USB port either, which kind of stinks. I bought two of the original Onn Streaming boxes, and both of the remotes died pretty quickly. Will be interesting to see how these hold up.
You really don't want to plug this stick directly into the hdmi port on your TV. It can heat up pretty quickly and fail. But yes, you can power it with 5v microUSB
Don't think I will bother but great video I have been looking at the chromecast with google TV tho to replace my fire products as I'm sick of amazon's intent on telling us what we can do with our products I'm sure you must of done a video on this so I will take a look 😊
Yes, I have, but Google just released a significant update to their devices. I may need to make an updated video. I hope you subscribed, so you don't miss it. 👍 Oh, and thank you for the kind words! 😉
There's a strong rumor that Amazon will be switching over the Firesticks to a Linux based operating system in early 2024. This is gonna wreck a lot of people who use the Downloader app. I'm thinking about buying a Nvidia Shield mainly because you can turn off the auto update feature. Something you can do on the Firesticks.
One of the main things people like to download with the Downloader app is Kodi. Did you know there is already Kodi for Linux? I use Linux a lot. It's not scary. Been using Kodi for years on it. This will have no impact.
I don't think streaming in 1080p is a deal breaker. Its not bad for a small thumbdrive sized computer. If you want better, get a Firestick, or an nVidia Shield.
I live in a small town where you can't get high Internet speed I stream everything and can't play in 4k anyway so it's perfect for that if you don't care about 4k
No a stupid question at all. It will work on any monitor with an HDMI input. But if you're monitor doesn't have built-in speakers that work with Audio over HDMI, you'll need Bluetooth Headphones or a Bluetooth Speaker to hear anything.
Just purchased the onn 4 k streaming box for 19.88 at walmart. So far i like it a lot and i have a firestick 4k max as well. Wanted to try out the onn box and see how it works and compares to the firestick . I am having a problem every day when i first start it up, i have no sound ! The rest of the remote features all work but no sound. Am reading online that other people are having this problem as well ! I called walmart and the clerk suggested buying a high quality hdmi cord with a copper tip ! Another person online commented that he changed his hdmi cord and it fixed the problem for him ! Have you heard anything about this problem and if so your suggestions / thoughts ? Will change my hdmi cord out and see if that fixes the problem..
You can position it in a more convenient spot. Also, depending on the angle of the connector on the TV, you can always position the TV better against a wall.
I wouldn't get a stick, I've had them and they overheat and not much you can do about it. I get the box, opened it up and removed the electronics. Then I drilled holes in the top and bottom of the case to allow air flow, then snap the case back on. They run much cooler that way.
My roko stick over heated. Had to unplug it every night and it was an annoying routine. Replaced it with an upgraded stick. So far so good. That's a great idea! I might try that with the older roku stick.
Thank you for this video. I did get one of these and it works great, with one exception. I cannot figure out how to get it to turn on both my HDMI Tv as well as my AV receiver at the same time. It will do one or the other but not both at the same time. Any idea if this is a capability, like it was with my Firestick 4K?
@arniep740 Have been through all the settings and can't find the right combination? If so, I'll take a look later. I don't have a receiver, but I do have a soundbar that I'm hoping will be similar enough for the correct settings. Stay tuned. 👍
All my firesticks lately seem to have a lot of buffering problems. My xfinity is great and xbox games are fine. Firestick even lags on prime videos. Constantly having to figure out what the problem is and never seem to find anything wrong. They just don't work as well as they used to, even my 4k max
Wow 100Mbps is Fast. I'm getting about 5Mbps down and 0.7 Mbps up I pay $30 a month for a 10/1 connection. The fastest connection I can get where I live.
According to Netflix you need 5Mbs to stream in HD and 15Mbs for 4K. I agree you're getting ripped off on Internet service. I'm paying that for 400Mbs down and 20Mbs up with Comcast.
Great question! GoogleTV is actually the operating system, not a streaming app. Think of it as Windows 11 on your computer, or IOS or Android for your cell phone.
Question does this will play Spanish channels in live tv . Like Telemundo and Univision.. that is for my pops , bc that's the only thing they watch . Or anyone knows and app or APK ❓ thanks. Like your channel by the way🔥👍🏽
I have an older sanyo tv and it's only 720p resolution I'm wondering if the box would be worth the extra money if my tv doesn't need the 4k resolution.
Great question! In your case, nearly any streaming device would be sufficient, but it comes down to the interface (GoogleTV, AndroidTV, FireTV) you prefer and the features you like. Check out my most recent video showing the features of this new box. None of them are directly related to the 4K resolution.
@@CordCuttersLII've looked at my HDMI ports and I'll have plenty of room to plug straight in to my TV and the power cord would still be long enough without the extra HDMI cable. So it went be an issue on hooking it up even though I could use the short jumper HDMI cable that's in the box.I so have a big tablet to watch TH-cam on the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+, 11 inch screen and it sounds better than the TV but I'm recovering from a stroke I had a little over a year ago and it's kinda hard to hold the tablet until I'm propped up against the bed and lay it propped up against my legs.
What you you recommend for me just to cast my apps and Brower from my android s23 phone? I don't care if it comes with Netflix etc. I already have all the streaming apps I want on my phone. Plus, I think I have to sign another device out just to add another streaming device. I work on the road and live in motels a lot. But when I do get home I don't want to have to sign back into my accounts on my smart tv.
@CordCuttersLI Thank you for the quick response. Would I still need to sign into my Google account? My brother called and told me to get a MiraScreen? I like the simplicity of just plug it in, switch to hdmi and cast my phone to it. I have many streaming services and I sometimes use my android browser to stream from.
@skoal022 I think the easiest way is to use the Google Home app on your phone, which you will need to log into. I haven't done a video on this myself, but there are a number of them out there. Here's one for example: th-cam.com/video/H4Xt0AdW7UI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=S-M06Ru3deX8Bd-5
Not sure what this device does. I have ‘Direct TV’ satellite service. I pay about $120 monthly to watch 100 channels. Would this device replace the satellite service saving me the $120 I’m being charged?
May be, but if rather they just provided a super short HDMI extension cable like the firesticks and provide a 6 foot power adapter/cable instead. We shouldn't have to buy something to make the thing work, in my opinion.
dont have wallmart n uk - we have asda - but wont pah anohter device any more - doether continuing updates n gives us stuff we dontwant n cnt remove them
Well, it's a matter of having all your apps, both official and non official, on one device, rather than watching some on the TV and have to switch to the other device to get to apps not available on the TV. If you're not interested in unofficial 3rd party app, then a smart TV might be all you need. 😉
If you pre-save some video files to a USB drive, I think you can on this device. I know 100% that you can do that on a Firestick. I do it all the time when camping.👍
Yes. One of the 1st steps in setting this up after connecting to WiFi is logging into your Google Account. They are free and easy to set up. Just go to Google and look at the top right for Logging in.
The included HDMI extension cable is there in case your TV is too close to the wall to plug in the stick directly into the HDMI slot. If you do not understand that simple design decision, how am I supposed to take your review seriously?
am reading a lot of people do not recommend plugging any stick into your tv as they overheat .. is better to use the hdmi cable to get them a way from the back of the tv.
And your phone is listening too as well as any device with amicrophone. Gotta learn how to shut down the constant spying ability if you dont want them hearing you yell at your family members
You might be right. I've often felt that it was a waste to offer both at such a close price. For $5 more, it really makes no sense, economically, to get the stick. I haven't see these sticks at Walmart when I've been there the last few times.
Nope. both versions (reportedly) support the exact same Wi-Fi versions: 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac MIMO. That being said, I would not put it past Amazon to use a cheaper Wi-Fi chip on the stick vs. the 4K box. They do not list the specifics on that.
But the $20 little box version works really well. I have had no buffering or problems with mine not even with side loaded apps using wolf launcher. I am really impressed
My Internet speed is plenty to download that small update a lot faster than it did. I'm happy yours worked better. What do you like (or dislike) most about this stick from your experience?

Thank you for reviewing of this item I was planning on purchasing a couple but now I'll just stay with the 4k $19.98 .
3:30. Cord length is not a problem. Just find any old extension cable you might have around the house.
For the price, you can't beat the Onn streaming box especially if you're a little techy with finding and configuring applications.
With 8Gb of storage, and most of that taken up with the OS ....... there's very little room for anything else. You get what you pay for !
You don’t need a longer HDMI cable you just need a longer extension cord to plug the thing into the wall
Or that.... My point is, people who buy a $15 Streaming device probably won't be thrilled with having to buy ANYTHING else to get it to work. 🤷♂️

Do you still have to have to have Netflix and Disney? Why do you need a stick for those? The apps are already on the TV. I don't get it.

If you pre-save some video files to a USB drive, I think you can on this device. I know 100% that you can do that on a Firestick. I do it all the time when camping.👍
did he say K application when he reach KODI??
I want to set one up for my mother-in-law, does she need a Google account?
Yes. One of the 1st steps in setting this up after connecting to WiFi is logging into your Google Account.
They are free and easy to set up. Just go to Google and look at the top right for Logging in.
Solid and powerful
The included HDMI extension cable is there in case your TV is too close to the wall to plug in the stick directly into the HDMI slot. If you do not understand that simple design decision, how am I supposed to take your review seriously?
am reading a lot of people do not recommend plugging any stick into your tv as they overheat .. is better to use the hdmi cable to get them a way from the back of the tv.
Could have added a 6ft A.C. power cord for $2
🤦♂️why didn't I think of that?!? 🤣😅
Can I connect my Bluetooth headphones 🎧 with this ? 🤔🤔
Yes, absolutely.
It's cheap because it's a listening device.
Listening to what? Youre paranoid. Just turn all those settings off
And your phone is listening too as well as any device with amicrophone. Gotta learn how to shut down the constant spying ability if you dont want them hearing you yell at your family members
Settings, settings, settings... maybe a video is necessary on settings... 👍
😂 That is cold 😂
Every electronic device approved has a backdoor,one of the requirements of the fcc.
The dark corner in the book 1984. Not a good place
If I’m correct they quit selling these already and just sell the box now.
You might be right. I've often felt that it was a waste to offer both at such a close price. For $5 more, it really makes no sense, economically, to get the stick. I haven't see these sticks at Walmart when I've been there the last few times.
Use an extension cord?
6 of one, 1/2 dozen of the other. Lol
so can you add the same 3rd party apps that you put on the firesticks such as bee tv ect?
Yes
Yep and they work really well, better than the firestick. Can totally mod it too with the wolf launcher
Absolutely, just remember to add real debrid
Yes, but watch the video before deciding to buy this one. There might be better options that don't cost much more.
Faster than a stick half the price
I got the box for 20 bucks
I wanna know
Thanks but I got it to work
how can I watch Netflix on mine firestick free?
Its using N wifi vs AC in the 4k model which is the reason for speed differences
Nope. both versions (reportedly) support the exact same Wi-Fi versions: 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac MIMO. That being said, I would not put it past Amazon to use a cheaper Wi-Fi chip on the stick vs. the 4K box. They do not list the specifics on that.
The onn box has the same specs and even uses same brand processor as googles box and TiVo Stream 4k .. I like onn remote better
Its not worth stick dnt hold up well after time it struggle just mine views on it
Yeah the stick onn only has 1.5 gb memory so its gonna struggle
But the $20 little box version works really well. I have had no buffering or problems with mine not even with side loaded apps using wolf launcher. I am really impressed
I agree on that it struggles, but I feel it's more than the RAM causing it. 🤔
It's your internet because I have gig internet and took half the time
My Internet speed is plenty to download that small update a lot faster than it did.
I'm happy yours worked better. What do you like (or dislike) most about this stick from your experience?
Use an extension cord
Okay this is for computers but if you have cell phone services you can get Google TV for free
Sorry, I'm not understanding what you're saying. This is a review video of a streaming stick. Did you comment on the wrong video? 🤔
How much spyware is built in ?
The usual amount
Woof!!
the mouth breathers and bottom feeders will rush out and grab the latest data gathering device 😏
These devices should have at least 16gb storage......
I agree, but you're not getting that for $15 🤷♂️
Didnt work
What didn't work exactly?
not evry getting it !
Walmart racism stick?
It Sucks
Tell me how you really feel? 😁
I think this has a rockchip RK3326 soc in it which uses a mali-31 mp2 gpu .. Low end chipset
