Great video! And I just love my new onn 4K Pro (bought about a week ago at my local Walmart). So much better then the chromecast with Google TV. I use mine with an external USB hub, so I can get 1GB ethernet, keyboard and additional storage (if needed). With regard to using the internal speaker of the Onn (when TV is off) you have to turn on HDMI-CEC for both the Onn and the TV (this makes sense, but it took me sevaral days to figure out that this was the problem -- my TV was not using CEC).

I have three old ones for $20 each that I purchased previously and the graphics is perfect and the speed is exceptional. I had one that I bought that was slow so I gave it away.

I replaced my Google Chromecast With Google TV 4K with this Onn TV 4K Pro Box and honestly the Onn TV 4K Pro Box performs way better and it doesn't have Lag or Slowness like the Google Chromecast With Google TV 4K. If Walmart can keep these Devices Updated consistently and keep them at a good Price then I think they will take over Amazon and possibly even Google Roku and Apple for the best Streaming Devices out there. I'm still keeping my Google Chromecast With Google TV 4K as a Backup because that's what Google has over Onn is consistent Updates since Google is Stock Android but like I said if Walmart can keep the Onn Brand Devices Updated consistently then I can surely see them leading the way with the best Streaming Devices. You also get way more with the Onn TV 4K Pro Box then you do with the Google Chromecast With Google TV 4K or other Brand Streaming Devices especially at a $50.00 Dollar Price point you can't beat it.

I'd like to see you do an actual set up with the 4K Pro so people, myself included can get everything working right. I hope that Amazon will stop messing with the old Firestick format and just bring out the new system and leave the old ones alone. Some say they will and some say by fall all the old Firesticks will be converted to the new system.

Let me put it to you this way, I can assure you that Amazon will NOT be forcing all the old devices to "upgrade" to the new Operating system. I don't think it's technically possible, and if it is, the amount of "bricked" devices they'd have on their hands would bankrupt them. Plus, there's a VERY good possibility that the existing hardware won't be compatible with their new Vega OS.

The ONN 4K Pro is a serious upgrade from the 4K Max it reminds me more of the Firestick cube except its about 100 bucks cheaper.

@CordCuttersLI8 ай бұрын
Great point, but EVERY streaming device seems to get away with this misrepresentation of storage. Firesticks with "8GB" really have 3 to 4 useable. Even my nVidia Shield with 16GB only had around 10GB if I recall. I think if there was a way, which I haven't been able to find, to show ALL the storage including every system file and other preinstalled apps, it MIGHT show something close to the amount advertised. Bottom line, like you said, this device has around 20+GB available for apps after all the preloaded stuff, and that's pretty hard to beat at this price.
@bigkahuna20846 ай бұрын
@@CordCuttersLI Actually the 8 GB FireStick devices leave you with 5.1 to 5.4 GB out of the box. That's what I expected from the 2023 ONN 4K 8 GB box (I have one, but haven't set it up yet), but all the video tutorials usually show it starts with only '3.x' GB of available space! Even though both are pitifully low, 2GB is a significant difference. With the FireSticks, you could get by for a bit longer, before being forced into an External USB setup. With the ONN box, you practically need to do it from Day One! Which is why the 32/23 GB for the ONN Pro is a game changer. But my hope would be for the price to come down to maybe $35 (since it's not a very powerful device ... actually slower than the original 'Android-TV' ONN 4K box (by benchmark-testing, anyway)!

It's 2024, not 2014. A lack of updates can be a genuine selling point for a lot of people, now that updates usually downgrade something notable (unlike a decade ago where it was usually a net gain). Frankly, I'm so tired of updates making things I paid for worse that for some things, I'd rather have a more insecure AND more functional device. I'd actually be more likely to buy a streaming device if there was a commitment to NOT push major updates. The older versions of Android TV are still objectively superior in dramatic ways if you hate ads and roughly have an idea of what you want to watch before you sit down.

They MUST create option to change to a different 'wake word'! I always keep my Android phone ON next to me. If I want to have the ONN do something by using the 'Hey, Google' command, then my phone is going to respond to that, as well. I mentioned this in a reddit thread and the only response I got was a guy who set he has that mic turned off on his phone (and has for years). But I don't want my phone microphone turned off! I want it active, if needed when I'm in the car! Hands-free, you know? Do you think Google (ONN) will do this? Amazon got around to it a few years ago (and they rarely do anything good for us end-users ... unless it makes them money!). WTH can't Google?

I see that you have a remote that does NOT have the stupid big "Free TV" button. Have they changed the remote? Good video by the way! Edit: I found out the answer to this so figured I'd let others know... the newer Onn 4K Pro devices have the stupid "Free TV" button. However, for me, it's definitely worth it because it is backlit. That's huge for me when watching in bed at night.

Nice! What new features from this video, if any, is most important to you? I'd love to hear more about how people pick which devices they buy.
@alfmeister138 ай бұрын
The feature that convinced me to buy this is the USB 3.0 port. My video files play great using the VLC player. The only downside is the remote which won't control many of my Sony STR-DN1040 features such as the power button and mute. It will however control the volume. It would be great if they add more codes to a future update.

Hi, and thank you for the kind words. I'm honored to have a subscriber from 1/2 way across the world in a country that I've always wanted to visit, and someday will! I hear what you're saying. I think sometimes we in the US take for granted all the things that are readily available here . I've been buying these and shipping them to my fellow KZbin creators in Canada, Spain and the UK. The cost to ship can exceed the price of the device in some cases. If you like what you see in the GoogleTV interface, I'll assume you can probably get the Chromecast with GoogleTV, which is a great streaming device. There are also some MeCool devices with GoogleTV that I've reviewed here that you might want to check out.

To answer that question in short, it has a different interface, but can do ANYTHING a Firestick can do and more, especially with all the changes Amazon is making lately to cripple it's capabilities.

Question: Why can you install Sling TV on this box? I use Sling TV to watch live TV so this box is useless to me.
@PghGoodGuy648 ай бұрын
I discovered this completely by accident but when I did a factory reset, Sling TV was listed on the group of apps to initially install. Not sure if I missed it during the first setup but it was definitely there and functional on subsequent setups.
@CordCuttersLI8 ай бұрын
You can 100% install SlingTV on this device. It's available in the Google Play store.

It's not worth the hike in price. Too many gimmicky updates that is not relevant on a streaming box. I don't need my streaming box to tell me a joke, the built-in speaker is useless. I am sticking to my current ONN box!!

@awesomeferret6 ай бұрын
I wish you could elaborate too. In 2024, saying something is bad and making no effort to explain why often just tells us that you can't justify your statement, and then we write you off and ignore your opinion. If it was actually junk, then you got a defective unit. I assume you're being irresponsibly hyperbolic with the word "junk"?
