Why I recommend the Google TV Streamer over competing Roku and Amazon Fire models


Whether you're revamping an old setup or turning a standard TV into a smart one, the Google TV Streamer is the top streaming device for Android users.

Testing the Google TV Streamer took me back to my Chromecast days in my Android era (shoutout to the Samsung Note 4, forever in my heart). While this might not be a big deal for most users, especially Android fans, you won't be able to say, "Hey Google, find my remote" like you can with the Roku Ultra. My kids quickly got involved, and now my Halloween screensaver is sprinkled with questionable-looking puppies frolicking in front of houses with oddly shaped windows!
