Did you mention that the remote is rechargeable and backlit and has a 'find me' feature?
Apple TV is the best. The rest are far inferior
I prefer roku
I have an older tv with Roku device and and a newer with google integrated [hisense]. Google is very cluttered imo. Roku device also connects to my hearing aids with bluetooth. Google does not have that option. Thinking about rebooting the google tv to original factory settings and installing a Roku device for this very reason.
I bought a TCL Google TV And then a Roku Ultra cheaper than just buying a Roku TV. Best of both worlds. Haven't quite decided which I like better. Wish I could put the best of both together in one package.
I personally like the Google tv BUT! for my aging parents, Roku Ultra is perfect for them. Folks are in their mid 70’s and they cut the cord about 2 years ago. I got them a Sony Bravia and the google tv confused them. They needed something simple. Their cable channels were easy to maneuver through. Google tv not so much. So the Roku is their sweet spot. They are 1000% satisfied with it. Mom loves speaking into the remote as well. She doesn’t have to search for anything anymore. She did that with the Sony but for some reason she had problems with it.
TBH none of them compare to an Apple TV when you compare speed, lack of intrusive ads, remotes and longevity… I have a Roku ultra and while it is fast, it's CONSIDERABLY slower than my Apple TV.
Google tv will allow side loading of apps not in the AppStore. Roku is closed to that procedure.
Google TV vs Roku, which is best for Sports content? I have a Sports package with my Comcast cable that includes almost every major sports program/network in US.
