This is the Google TV streaming device that costs just $9

This isn’t an introduction, but rather a reintroduction to the Onn Full HD Streaming Device. This budget Google TV streamer has been around for a little bit, but is gaining more attention now thanks to its new price that comes in at just $9. As you can imagine, it’s a pretty exciting discount, especially if you’re someone that’s been looking to add the Google TV experience to a TV or monitor for cheap.

What is Onn?

If you’ve never heard of Onn before, we have you covered. The Onn brand has been around for close to a decade, and is produced by Walmart, specializing in electronics. The brand gained most of its attention just a few years ago, thanks to its affordable Google TV products that hit the market.

While you might not even look at Onn products, the reviews have been quite positive. Some of the models even manage to outperform some of Google’s own products. And while the Onn Google TV 4K Pro got some rave reviews, today, we’re talking about one of the brand’s more affordable options, the Full HD Streaming Device.

The perfect way to get started

Streaming is a big part of entertainment nowadays, so as you can imagine, brands are doing their best to try and get you on their platform. And while most TVs already come preloaded with some software straight out of the box, you always have the choice of using something different by just plugging in a new device.

If you’re someone that uses an Android phone or tablet, Google TV is going to be a popular option, offering seamless integration with Google apps, services, and devices. The brand has done a great job keeping things up to date, adding new features that keep the UI feeling fresh.

So, is the Onn for $9 good?

Well, it’s not the beefiest device on the market, but it’ll get the job done, featuring 1.5GB of RAM and 8GB of storage. The device also outputs at a maximum of 1080p, so if you need better resolution, you’re best going with the Google TV 4K Pro, which is now also on sale for $45.

The Onn supports most if not all popular streaming services, and you can also download apps and games from the Google Play Store. You get easy search using Google Assistant, along with easy media sharing with Chromecast built-in. When it comes to the set-up, it’s easy. Just plug in USB power and the device into a free HDMI port, and you’re good to go.

Again, it’s not a bad way to get Google TV on your TV or monitor if you’re on a budget or just want to give it a try. The only catch is that this sale, as of now, is only open to Walmart+ members as part of its Early Access sales event ahead of Black Friday.
