All 4k streaming devices can output in 1080p though, it's just a setting in the menu.

The $20 ONN 4k streaming device is highly regarded for people on a budget and better than the hd only ccwgtv.

I use that device with my 1080p TV, and its such a great value. I've never tried it with any 4K content, though

I had written this device off because it did not have an app for DirecTV Stream and so you had to cast from another device, but apparently as of November 1 there is a native DTV Stream app now. So that's good.

Very good device but the frontpage of google tv is one big advertisement by google
It isn't half as bad as Amazon's homescreen. That thing is horrendous.

This is great for use with people using projectors. I personally don't know anyone rocking projectors with resolutions more than 1080p tbh
I have a 4k projector. I know it's not true 4k but it certainly puts out a 4k resolution image and projectors, the difference between 4k and 1080p is noticeable because of the sheer size of the screens.

FYI, the remote control itself cost $19.99. Bought this HD as replacement for my broken remote control.
I'm doing the same. Busted my 4k remote. Will install HD Chromecast in old bedroom TV. And just use phone app to control that.

At $19.88 it's actually the lowest price ever on Amazon
Amazon just priced matched Walmart so $18 is now the lowest price ever on Amazon

Same price at the Google store. They sent me a random $10 coupon in my email the other day, so got this for $10 shipped.
Always wanted to try one, so for this price, might as well

Should get an Onn remote for it. Way better imo.

Wondering if anyone has even tried to use this on a hotel TV with the hotel network? Thinking this would make a good travel streaming device.

I often use mine in hotels. Sometimes getting through the password screens can be problematic and I had to install an alternate web browser for some hotel chains. Overall it works but you might have to troubleshoot a bit.

Quote from M1NTBERRYCRUNCH View quoted comment :
I would agree if it were just about resolution, but I have the 4k model on a 1080p TV and I think the hardware is just barely acceptable as it is. The issue with the HD model is that the SoC is even slower and there is even less RAM. The added AV1 support isn't enough to offset that. I haven't tried the HD model yet but I've used enough of these devices to know that less than 2gb of ram makes scrolling through a live TV guide pretty painful.
The 4k model is already on the borderline of sluggish with the included Google launcher.
I switched mine out for a Fire stick 4K max and the difference is day and night. I like the Google TV software better but prefer the speed of the 4K max more.
