With everything from the next Knives Out movie to the final season of Stranger Things on the way, there’s going to be a ton of great stuff to stream in the coming weeks. And if you want to watch it all in glorious 4K resolution, Google’s TV Streamer (4K) is a great streaming device that’s currently available at Best Buy for an all-time low $74.99 ($25 off) as part of an early Black Friday promotion. If you prefer a different retailer, it’s also available at Amazon and Walmart for the same price.
Google’s snappy set-top box supports all the major HDR formats, including HDR10 Plus and Dolby Vision, as well as Dolby Atmos audio. It offers twice the RAM and four times as much storage as the last-gen Chromecast, allowing for smoother performance and more room for apps. Plus, it took us a mere 10 minutes to set up, and it runs on Google’s intuitive TV software, which provides recommendations across streaming services, complete with Rotten Tomatoes scores. The included remote also makes navigation a breeze with a customizable shortcut button, and as an added touch, you can even ping the remote using a handy button on the box.
What makes the TV Streamer (4K) an even better value, however, is that it doubles as a Google Home Hub with support for Matter, Thread, and Google Assistant voice controls via the remote. That means you can adjust your thermostat, dim the lights, or view camera feeds right on your TV screen via a smart home panel. It even has a built-in ethernet port, which is perfect for those moments when your Wi-Fi gets spotty.
