@CouchPotoCafe great video I have a question I have 1 of the first Boxes (No Blue Back Light Button) how do u work the speaker on this, only way I can get It to work Is when I take the HD I cable out now I know that's can't b how It works, If so that's Dumb, who wants to keep doing that all the time? 🤔
This box is amazing! It comes with this GPU: The Arm Mali-G31 GPU is an ultra-efficient GPU based on the Mali Bifrost architecture. Bringing the benefits of Bifrost to a different tier of device, Mali-G31 builds on the success of the previous ultra efficient products in the Mali-400 Utgard series. With significant energy and area savings compared to the next level of device, plus support for the very latest APIs, Mali-G31 is the GPU of choice for cost constrained devices.
No speaker on monitor? I connected a “4K HDMI Audio Extractor HDMI to HDMI + Audio” box on my ONN & put a Y splitter into my computers speakers. Or you could get a B.T. Speaker / headphones.
Nice job. I liked your down-to-earth style. The Apps Only mode almost makes Google TV look like a custom launcher. I don't have any reason to stay with Fire TV anymore.
@@juanmasa3020 You have to disable ATV Launcher Pro first (or I did). Under Settings, go to Accounts & sign-in, then scroll to Apps-only mode. Wonderful option. I'd use it if I wasn't using ATV.
I have been a roku user pretty much since the first model came out and I love thier interface . The big downside to them is that they don't have good parental controls so I bought the Onn Stick and it's pretty slow and freezes up with only 1gb of Ram but has dedicated profiles so I can have a kid profile on there. I went back and bought two of the Onn 4k boxes and they are much better than the stick. I think I may get the 4k pro as an upgrade to the slow stick .
THE ONN 4K PRO HAS 3 GIG RAM THE ONN THAT YOU HAVE ONLY HAVE 2GIGS OF RAM THE ONN 4K PRO HAS 32 GIGS OF STORAGE AFTER SETTINGS IT UP YOU END UP WITH 23 GIGS OF STORAGE THE ONN YOU HAVE DOESN'T COME CLOSE TO THAT MUCH STORAGE I KNOW BECAUSE I HAVE BOTH ONN 4K STREAMING DEVICE AND THE ONN 4K PRO STREAMING BOX
Extensive review. Almost an instruction manual. I'm going to get a couple to bring back to the Philippines. I have a 2018 Nvidea Shield, but this might be a good backup
Love the box. However I'm having pairing problems. I have a aer of Bose ear plugs and a bose headset and The box will not pair to either product. I even attempted to pair my Plantronics and the same issue. I can pair my Bluetooths to all my firesticks. Any suggestions?
@@CouchPotatoCafe Thanks for replying. I’ve checked multiple stores in southeast Florida. They only have the ones with the A2405 and some with A2408 on the boxes, which represents the model with the non-backlit remote.
@@JustWinBaby_23 I talked with them yesterday and they told me that 75% of the stores in the lower 48 have them, also depends on how much stock the stores go through to when they will get the next roll out.
I'm trying to figure out the best unloaded box that can be loaded if needed😉. There are so many boxes and clones of clones you never know what you might get. Yes i lived through the satellite days in the 70's to 2000's and all the boxes and devices that were out there. The good thing was that there wasn't very many players like there are today. Thanks for the content.
Very cool, the best straight up android box in my opinion is the Nvidia and the cost reflects that. Thanks for the input and watching, I appreciate it.
@@KD0LRG I don't ever use the built in DVR options but like the exterior dedicated ones like ua-cam.com/video/KPsH4Dxk3is/v-deo.htmlsi=gnS8sIPBfDyBI7m1
Everything I had on my firestick is on my Onn4k devices. Downloader I put on the Onn4k. You have to enable the Onn4k to sideload.I have no problems and I have apk's that I sideloaded and other apps Netflix, Paramount ect.
I have one. Great box. Things I don't care for: 1. You cannot adjust the size of the screen. In order to see the whole screen, I have to shrink by 3% and you cannot do that with this box. Shield, firestick and the china boxes can. 2. The tiny select button on the remote. My fingers keep pressing the directional button with it. 3. No IR programing any of the buttons on the remote.
I got one of these and installed but the problem is when the TV is off and I ask question like "Hey Google how is the weather today?" the speaker of the TV box does not respond! I am sure that the TV box gets my question and it is answering but the voice is going to TV through HDMI cable even though the TV is off! Then when I disconnect the HDMI cable from TV and try again I get the answer from TV Box speaker! I don't know what is wrong but while the HDMI Cable is connected to TV and TV is turned off I can not hear any answer from my Google! Any suggestions will be highly appreciated to solve this problem!
@@CouchPotatoCafe Thanks for your response. I already did that and when the TV is on it is working well but when I turn the TV off it does not work! If you have the device you can try by yourself to see what I am saying. I expect this device to work as a smart speaker when the TV is off but it will not work as smart speaker until I disconnect the HDMI cable from TV!
@@omiddavami8706 That is correct, it is designed to be used with the tv on but can be used as a single smart speaker like in the nest system when no HDMI source is present.
I think the fire stick is complete garbage. You have more than 20 min in to watch something and then it's a hit or miss. Too much lag and buffering. You always get buffering.
Can anyone comment about Bluetooth connection strength? I'm hard of hearing and use headphones 90% of the time, on my fire stick, without issue. I've heard that Bluetooth connection strength is poor with the ONN, that would be a deal breaker for me, regardless of how open Google TV is. Software support longevity is also a concern. Thank you, in advance everyone.
It was hacked and videos deleted, then UA-cam tried to stop it locked up the account for prevention and doing so deleted more, anyways it got to the point of just starting over.
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 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.

Our Fire TV kicked the bucket the other day. Just wanted your video and I really appreciate your time in going over the Onn box. I just ordered one.
I appreciate that Caryn, Thanks for watching and supporting the channel.
I have one and it is amazing so far. It lacks a few features I wish it had, such as full support for DOlby Vision MKV rips.
I am just found out about this great information, I only have internet no box just rotor black box. Do I need the box also ? thanks
Happy with the Fire stick 4k but this looks good and I'll probably try it out. I'm always looking for something new. Great video 👍
Firestick is a good device it's more of what Amazon is doing with the firmware to be more captive and income generating.

Great video as usual. Welcome back!
Thank you, I appreciate it
Can you put everything in dobly atmos and doby vison like on the amazon fire stick 4k max
the ONN 4K TV box supports Dolby Vision, but it does not support Dolby Atmos audio
Great review and comments.
Thanks Victor
Welcome back and great review thanks
Thanks for watching! and good to be back.
Oh yes I would like is Onn box pro 4k
I just bought the original onn 4k box a few months ago. Is this worth the upgrade?
not if your happy with it, it is faster and a google assistant but if the puck is working then just stick with it until you need a new one

33% MORE ram,
MUCH more storage.

Be sure to dis engage from any other devices before trying to pair, My headset only does two devices so when I tried the 3rd one it would not pair
Where are you located that you found a backlit remote? Was it shipped to you?
Arizona and no I just went to the store and bought it

@@CouchPotatoCafe The stores I’ve checked typically have 6-8 units with the regular remote in stock.
How would that USB hub connect to the onn? For whatever reason I just can't visualize the setup.
The wire coming off the hub plugs into the USB port of the tv box

If you don't have to buy additional usb hub and brick, it's a no brainer. In Europe, buy Strong Leap box.
Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
And I just figured out that I can use a Fire TV remote with the Onn device. I definitely prefer that.
But then I realized that the Fire TV remote won't work properly with every app.
I got mine i love it
Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
So this can replace my fire on my smart tv?
I like it much better then the stick, so yes in my opinion
I have 4.and I have had no problems. Firestick took apps away from me.
For me you keep your Firestick.
I will stay with my Onn4k
Yeah I am seeing Amazon shooting themself in the foot trying to squeeze every penny out of firestick owners
Everything I had on my firestick is on my Onn4k devices. Downloader I put on the Onn4k. You have to enable the Onn4k to sideload.I have no problems and I have apk's that I sideloaded and other apps Netflix, Paramount ect.

Excellent video
Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
Why not compare it to the Firestick 4k max 2nd gen?
I was including it in the firestick line but yes there is a video coming on that shortly
YES, of course it's better than the FS 4K, FS 4K Max, ROKU "&" CRapple tv. 👍🏻😁👍🏻
I doubt if the box goes up I work at Walmart
I hope your right, thanks for watching

I retro game on mine love it. ❤️ retroarch works great on it all the way up to ps2 games just saying 👍
Thanks for watching and the input, we all appreciate it!
@CouchPotatoCafe I use a ps4 remote works well with the onn 4k and it also works as a mouse 🐁 for the websites that need it.
Can I add a hard drive to play my movies on here?
Sure you can , here I have a video about setting one up at ua-cam.com/video/nzW5-R5bIls/v-deo.htmlsi=Eb-t8ojHz7wgg_OG

I've had good luck with these earphones amzn.to/4emCOGC with all these boxes, I walk around in different rooms and didn't cut out.
It’s the bloatware from Amazon is why I’m searching for other alternatives
I understand that

The Onn 4K pro is okay.😊
Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
5$ cheaper than Chromecast. I bought it during promotion sales too if not gonna be 50$. Google is a dang ripped off.
Well it's more Walmart brand running google TV but not saying Google may still be a rip
