    Knowing that I can use VLC on this with a thumb drive helps me so much! I’m slowly working on ripping and converting my old DVDs to MKV as I no longer use a DVD player in the living room.
    I’m supposed to get one of these in the mail tomorrow, and that has just made this so worth it!

    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).

    What you don't get is a video card. I bought it, I took it back. They asked my wife what was wrong, she said we have a 4K TV and it looks like crap. It was kind of sluggish and it froze up on me one time. Maybe I just got a bad one. 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. Maybe I'm the only one that didn't have a good experience with this. I line the Onn. brand.

    Thank you for the informative video. I'm currently using 2 Onn 4K boxes (2023 model year), and am patiently waiting for my closest Walmart, in Niagara Falls, NY, to start selling it. I personally think that it is worth the upgrade. Not only for the increase in memory and internal storage, but more-so for the USB 3.0 port as I can use my new UGreen Gigabit ethernet, and USB adapter in it to get faster internet speeds. I have recently switched from Amazon FireTV devices to Onn Android TV boxes. See you in the next video.

    Got this device a couple days ago and its awesome. Never had ONN before but have chromecast and Roku Ultra. I hate Roku menu system and love Googles. The Onn 4K Pro is very snappy. Most imporrantlynfor me, is Bluetooth 5.2. Long range of wireless audio if youmuse headphones, or like me, blue tooth hearing aids. Any other device, i would lose bluetooth connection audio from the tv if i go to a different room. With this Onn 4KPro, I can go far in my house without losing audio. GREAT device.

    Curious as to whether you've set a harddrive up specifically to store recordings from TiviMate?
    I've tried defining the hard drivr as internal and external. Tivimate either doesn't see it as internal or won't write to it as external.
    I get the "failed to change folder" error as external.
    I am pretty sure some permissions need to be changed, as was the case with the Shield last year to get around it but, for the life of me, I cant figure out what needs changed.
    My Firestick 4k Max recognizes the storage and reads and writes to it regardless of internal or external definition.
    I just really hate using an Amazon product.
    Have you been able to attach a hard drive and use TiviNate to record to it?

    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?

    I got mine about a week ago and I'm waiting to set it up , the 4K Max is still working good even though Amazon is removing or changing things in the format. 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. I'd really like to get the new ONN 4K Pro all set up so I don't have to worry if Amazon does decide to say goodbye to the android system.

      Hi and thanks for sharing. I recognize you from some comments on my Rumble channel. Thank you for the dual subscribership (if that's a word, lol)..
      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.

But IMO they will concentrate most of there efforts on the new operating system and the old system will be put on the back burner. 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. Will your apps that I downloaded on the Firestick work on the ONN is the goggle app the same as android? Keep up the great work!!

      "Yet" in the key word.. Just like the older model, at some point an Amazon reseller will offer these on Amazon. I've shipped these to fellow UA-cam creator friends of mine, and it's NOT cheap. Cost to ship far exceeds the price of the device which makes it not economically feasible. Patience my friend. It'll come.

    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 am curious to know if you set the t.v up in the box. like as in making the box know what t.v you are using it on. because. when i talk to my box it answer's me through my sound bar but not the speaker on the box itself. if i unplug the hdmi cable then the box answer's me through the built in speaker. so im confused as to why your box isn't working the same way. maybe a bad hdmi cable ? or maybe the tv isnt setup within the box itself.

      I don't have a Fire Cube, but I'm assuming this IS possible (without it turning on the TV and playing through its speakers) ... though I don't know for sure. So more like a separate Echo Dot speaker?

      I guess only time will tell, but I have the 2021 Onn 4k, which come with android tv 10. I know the 2021 box received updates about as often as my chromecast 4k . About 6 months ago, my 2021 onn 4k updated to android 12, so from previous experience and with the Onn devices using Google TV, I feel comfortable they will continue with the future updates. I have already purchased the Onn 4k pro about 5 days ago, got it set up and so far it is an absolutely great streaming device with lots of storage, Usb 3.0 and an ethernet port for those who wish to wire direct.

      Second, I agree with @darrenp5053, the updates have come regularly on their previous devices, so I don't think this will be different. With the overwhelming initial success this device is seeing, they should certainly have the budget to keep the updates coming.

    • @awesomeferret
      @awesomeferret 4 дні тому

      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.

    I know the box says its 32 Gb of storage space, but under the Storage setting it lists total shared storage at 23. After adding/deleting, I have 20 remaining...not bad, and I expected the available amount to be less when I fired up the box, but its still misleading to say 32

    • @CordCuttersLI
      @CordCuttersLI  Місяць тому

      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.

      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)!
