I have a DLNA server for my media. I just use VLC to access all my media. I did not know i could get an adapter to give it a USB port though! Def gotta get some super mario world going on it.
I picked one of these at my local Wally World a couple of weeks ago while I was out for a walk. It is not bad; especially for the $21.50 that I paid for it.
This kind of performance at this price point would have been a dream 10 years ago. Looking forward to running 4k upscaled Switch games on my $20 dongle in 2033!
Bought it. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. The 2021 ONN box natively mounted external NTFS formatted USB thumb drives via OTG. The new one DOES NOT (confirmed on Android TV Reddit)! I cannot play any of my movies that I have on my USB thumb drive anymore. I immediately reconnected the old one. Also, the old box benchmarks faster than the new one, despite the hardware differences. FAT 32 drives may work, but my files are all over 4GB in size so that's pointless. Plus, as stated, the old ONN box would mount NTFS thumb drives no problem. The fact that the new one DOES NOT is RIDICULOUS. Also, no exFAT support.
I always enjoy when ETA goes bargain hunting. I don't own either of these boxes; but, in general I've always had pretty good luck with Walmart house brand electronics. This applies to both Onn and its predecessor Durabrand.
@@ulfricstormcloak7142 I don't. ETA has done some reviews of them and they're fine. My first, and so far only, tablet is a Sky Elite 8 inch tablet listed in Marketplace as "new in the box" that I bought from an Obamaphone tent for $20. Unlike the phones where you have to get government aid to qualify; my understanding is that one of the COVID stimulus bills had a provision for the government to subsidize and sell tablets to anyone who wanted one, even if one isn't otherwise receiving assistance. I gave them a $20, they handed me a box, and that was it. It's a little underpowered; but music streaming, scrolling through social media, and web browsing are generally fine. Game emulation is good through PS1. RUclips is slightly jittery at 720p 60 once it gets warmish, but rock solid at anything below that - including 720p30. The screen is really nice, crisp and with nice punchy colors. It runs a mostly clean version of Android 11. I've looked them up on eBay and it appears to be a generic design that they slap different brands on as needed. The rear shell looks very similar to the Onn 8 tablet's, so I don't know if they're related or not. It's well worth the $20 I paid and I can recommend it.
The Durabrand CRT TV was actually not bad! It showed a picture. Also used tons of Durabrand CD-Rs during that time period. RIP Durabrand. Your name made me think of car parts.
Apparently its such a good deal that people in my area are scalping them. I was told a man came in and bought the entire case, so I went online, and every Walmart in a 100 mile radius is sold out of them. Update: I was told that my local Walmart was getting a new shipment in, so I went in on my way to work, and was told by an employee in electronics that the same guy came in and bought them all again less than an hour after restock :(

Definitely worth $20! I have an older version and I like it that coincidentally, last month, I went to my local Walmart to get some more but they didn't have any in stock but since this is the new model, they should have it by now.

@@soragranda not really, no. It runs the exact same os as this. Still has support for more features than this thing This doesn't support dolby vision or atmos. It's not bad for the money, but the chromecast has better features for a little bit more money.

One thing I'd like to know about the updated version is if it still suffers from a weird issue with disconnecting the remote randomly. We currently use the older model, and at times the remote would disconnect and the only solution I know to do is to throw the device in the freezer and then after a while plug it back in... Works like before. I have no clue what this issue could be.
The sound going out happened on the old version too. it was strange, the only way I got it to work was to turn on the "talkback" feature in the accessibility options. Then turn it back off and the the sound worked again.
I have one of these in my living room, connected to a 65in LG TV. Installed Jellyfin so I could watch media from my server via wifi. It works perfectly. I don't use it for emulation or games, only streaming, so I can't comment on that. But for $20, you can't beat it. I bought a second one to tinker around with at my desk, and connected a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Works great with Google Docs and social media apps. I plan to buy more.
Great box works great buy them out every time wallmart has them n I load them up fully loaded and I give as birthday gift, Xmas gifts to family n friends they love them.
I tried the y splitter USB adapter on my old onn tv, and could not get it to work well. When it finally worked it was only on a USB drive formatted to fat32. So only files less than 4gb. I would call this product ewaste, but it does do streaming well. Using the USB adapter usually meant the onn tv box would lock up, and be un usable needing to unplug it to power cycle it.
Was it a flash drive or external hard drive? That sounds like a power issue. And the fat32 issue is just an Android thing. Support for other filesystems is spotty between vendors.
That OTG cable you showing in video, if you plug that one into box how will the box be powered? Does it have a battery? That OTG you showing doesn't have power in adapter so I don't understand how did you use that cheap OTG adapter if box is powered through MicroUSB?
i tryed the original onn android tv box. loved all the features but i went back to Roku due to the audio normalizing/leveling across apps. The Roku had a "night" mode that worked across the entire app ecosystem for audio dynamic compression. Does anyone know if they have implemented that in the android TV boxes. The onn box i had would have fairly noticeable audio volume differences going from say Hulu to Sling. I would have to adjust my receiver 5-6 clicks to compensate.
I did like that feature on my old Roku tv. but for every other reason I hated it. i remember just a month after I switched to android tv, seeing an article that the handful of themes on Roku that cost like 1.99 each, were now all free! Really!! 😤
try adjusting your EQ in your tv's audio settings. my tv is a 50" sanyo-an old dumb tv. But even for me, changing the eq drastically improved the sound levels.
Picked the older model up and still going strong with daily use. Funnily enough I'm using it in Malaysia. It also still feels snappier than my other android TVs.
I couldn't recommend these more over the Chromecasts, Roku, and Fire Sticks They even play well with apple devices and have better specs than the $30 sticks
I bought a second one of these not too long ago, and got Open Morrowind working on it, using the internal storage and my own game files from the GOG version! And it runs pretty well on default settings! Got an OTG adapter coming in the mail from a factory in China by the 6th of October. I'm not hard to please, I love this thing! I'd buy a third if I could! 😂
Bluetooth has an issue on the previous gen ONN that may be present on this model: when you go to PAIR your Bluetooth device (especially headphones) it seems to interfere with the Bluetooth remote's ability to select the "Pair with device" prompt. It's extremely annoying as it appears your device has frozen or the remote is not longer working. However, the remote can be reconnected by pressing DOWN 4 or 5 times and then UP a couple times which will 'wake up' the remote and then you can highlight and select the option to connect to your new Bluetooth device. Took me forever to find this out & I hope it helps someone that stumbles upon this!
I REALLY liked this streamer (last years model)......until I finally had to ditch it. I had TONS of problems trying to keep the remote connected. The remote kept dropping out and would no longer be recognized. Other than that, great little streaming player but the remote connections were crap.
@@RickyCash i would expect that to be true if it ran at the same resolution on any tv and just upscaled it to higher res, but i dont think thats what it does
the SOC S905Y4 is a little better compare to chromecast with google tv HD, the 4k variant uses S905X3 and 1.5gb Ram. This ONN is actually a better deal if your into market for one of these.
how do you set the USB device as an external storage? Im not seeing that option on mine and it looks like they marry each other and cant go back to my pc with it
The only problem with Android boxes is that they don't have rewind, fast forward and play/pause buttons on the remote, like the Firesticks and Rokus do. I found an old Roku remote lying around, and will try to pair it to the ONN box over Bluetooth
Can a VPN service be used with these? I travel around the world for work and it'd be nice to have something like this to connect to hotel TVs to watch stuff back home.
@@mw7967 I've stopped using it since my wife told me about it. Then I started seeing RUclips videos saying the same thing. If the Internet says it, it can't be fake news 😂
I just hooked up my onn box easy set up look good user friendly well worth the price the disappointment for me is one of best free streaming platforms is unavailable and that would be the Roku channel fire & apple have it and of course Roku good vid thx
its a shame in the uk the only onn products they get in is a bunch of headphones and some usb cables. The biggest onn things they get in is a dvd player and cd player.
Can hardly emulate games because android 12 (tv edition) doesn't have a native file explored. I have to manually click each and every 1000+ games I have, and then hope that I can access them all through the recent games, (which you cant)
The thing I hate most about Android boxes is the hit 'n' miss auto refresh rate switching and the lack of bit-perfect PCM audio playback. Those are the things I miss most from using a Windows media PC.
Would you be able to connect a touchscreen monitor via USB to this device? I'm looking for an inexpensive way display a website on a touchscreen monitor and provide for scrolling via the touchscreen.
Hey, Thanks. You know I was thinking of the junk stuff that I do not use anymore and all the dongles and other things i have collected over the years. I had a trashcan full of pc dongles and parts from the 80s up unto 2010. My brother junked them and made me really mad. However, the trashcan is almost full again. Watching your video and thinking hey that would be easy to add Ethernet to with some of the stuff I have and the beet goes on. I may buy one just to full around with. Thanks.
I'm looking for a good usb otg hub for this that includes ethernet. Can you recommend anything? There's a lot of junk out there, I'm not sure if there's a good one at a good price?
i initally wasn't sold on upgrading for it's minimal core improvements and objectively worse launcher UI. as long as i can still change the default launcher on this model, i might get it for the external storage and the like. I got openRCT2 installed and running on the 2021 model just to see if i could. I couldn't tell you if the game ran well past the main menu without keys and a mouse. it wasn't crashing, but i had 0 space or memory left to work with. do you think it could run clone hero? lol
I wonder if this one would be any good for cloud gaming, like steam link, game pass ultimate, geforce now, etc. I use the older firestick 4k with steam link more than I play at my PC. I got my gaming PC in the bedroom but usually I just want to chill on the couch in the living room and play on the bigger tv. Wife doesn't like the PC in the living room unfortunately. Might be a good follow up video.
Protip: Use Pal Roms for N64, Dreamcast, Gamecube and PS2 if you have slight struggles with performance. PAL Roms run on 50hz native, while NTSC Roms run at 60hz Native. You get a little more headroom for more demanding games.

Can hardly emulate games because android 12 (tv edition) doesn't have a native file explored. I have to manually click each and every 1000+ games I have, and then hope that I can access them all through the recent games, (which you cant)
The thing I hate most about Android boxes is the hit 'n' miss auto refresh rate switching and the lack of bit-perfect PCM audio playback. Those are the things I miss most from using a Windows media PC.
Can it save offline videos with Disney plus or RUclips?
wait how did you use a controller for this onn tv and if so what usb hub otg cable did you use like ws it 4 port
Would you be able to connect a touchscreen monitor via USB to this device? I'm looking for an inexpensive way display a website on a touchscreen monitor and provide for scrolling via the touchscreen.
I just got it but it doesn’t let me side load or access to manage my storage. How did you installed retroarch?
Thanks for the info. Does it have the youtube tv app?
You know what I asked about this a couple days ago and I'm assuming you may have read my comment thank you for doing this I'm watching it now
Hey, Thanks. You know I was thinking of the junk stuff that I do not use anymore and all the dongles and other things i have collected over the years. I had a trashcan full of pc dongles and parts from the 80s up unto 2010. My brother junked them and made me really mad. However, the trashcan is almost full again. Watching your video and thinking hey that would be easy to add Ethernet to with some of the stuff I have and the beet goes on. I may buy one just to full around with. Thanks.
(Not this video) Kinda annoying when people complain about Micro USB when TINY USB C to Micro USB adapters are readily available for cheap.
I'm looking for a good usb otg hub for this that includes ethernet. Can you recommend anything? There's a lot of junk out there, I'm not sure if there's a good one at a good price?
i initally wasn't sold on upgrading for it's minimal core improvements and objectively worse launcher UI.
as long as i can still change the default launcher on this model,
i might get it for the external storage and the like.
I got openRCT2 installed and running on the 2021 model just to see if i could.
I couldn't tell you if the game ran well past the main menu without keys and a mouse.
it wasn't crashing, but i had 0 space or memory left to work with.
do you think it could run clone hero? lol
I wonder if this one would be any good for cloud gaming, like steam link, game pass ultimate, geforce now, etc.
I use the older firestick 4k with steam link more than I play at my PC. I got my gaming PC in the bedroom but usually I just want to chill on the couch in the living room and play on the bigger tv. Wife doesn't like the PC in the living room unfortunately.
Might be a good follow up video.
Thats what i WANNA KNOW
How do you get RetroArch on one of these I can't find it when I search?

Title, bold move
The stick version is nice 2024 slimmer than amazon stick and has same processor and gpu as the box
Protip: Use Pal Roms for N64, Dreamcast, Gamecube and PS2 if you have slight struggles with performance.
PAL Roms run on 50hz native, while NTSC Roms run at 60hz Native. You get a little more headroom for more demanding games.
2:07 bro was tired of editing😂
I'm a big fan of "title" myself
Can this download the Xbox app for remote play?
How do u get to local channels you get with over the air antenna
Can I add a Xbox controller to it for the games do you know and how to pair it ?
Can a Chromebook or other device cast it's display to a TV through this device, or use the TV as a second display using this device?
I wonder if It works with game streaming apps like Moonlight and Parsec
Yes it works with Moonlight.
I had the 2021 version of this device and I would lose sound all of the time also. Great for what it is though.
What are some good side load apps for any show/movie free
