Walmart Streaming Devices

Walmart is releasing their own streaming devices.

https://techcrunch.com/2021/06/02/wa...and-4k-player/

The 1080p stick version is $25 and the 4K UHD device is $30. They're powered by Android TV. It has Chromecast built-in, and uses Google Assistant for voice commands.

I like the dedicated buttons on the remote. Those are popular services people use, unlike Roku which always has weird stuff like Sling and Rdio.



Here's the store listings. They're currently out of stock.

^^^ My newest Roku remote has those. They just keep changing up those buttons for some reason.

So is this new brand ONN Wal-Mart property? I saw one of these brands TV’s at a condo I stayed in last April. I had never seen that name before.

I'm pretty sure companies pay Roku to get the dedicated buttons on the remote, so I assume the same thing here. Still crappy that they can't be reprogrammed at all.

Looks like a cheap way to get an up to date Chromecast. Wish someone would make something with both Airplay and Chromecast included, then I’d be set.
