### Google Streamer 4K

$99.99 save 21%$79.00 at AmazonThe Google Streamer 4K, released in September 2024, is a significant upgrade from the Chromecast 4K. Google boasts that the new processor is up to 22% faster, with double the memory at 2GB and quadruple the onboard storage at 32GB. Connectivity options include high-speed 802.11ac Wi-Fi and gigabit ethernet. The device now uses a USB Type-C port for power, simplifying the search for a replacement if you lose the original. Additionally, if you misplace the redesigned remote, a convenient remote-finder button is located on the main unit.

Like other top-tier models, the Google Streamer 4K supports streaming at up to 4K resolution in HDR, including Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HDR10+ formats. Despite featuring an HDMI 2.1 port, it is capped at 4K @ 60fps. It also supports Dolby Atmos for immersive audio when paired with compatible speakers like the Sonos Arc. Beyond streaming, it can control your smart home devices and serves as both a Thread border router and Matter hub.

The Google Streamer 4K offers a compelling alternative to the Apple TV and Roku Ultra at a more affordable price. While the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is cheaper, the Android TV interface is cleaner and more user-friendly, free from Amazon's ads. The Nvidia Shield TV Pro, while superior in some streaming aspects, costs $200. With added smart home features and compatibility with Matter and Thread, the Google Streamer 4K is an unbeatable package.

Which streaming services should I sign up for?

For a paid subscription, the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ bundle at $16.99 offers unbeatable value. Disney Plus, a key component of this bundle, provides a vast array of high-quality entertainment, from timeless Disney animations to the latest Marvel and Star Wars series, and excellent children's programming like Bluey. With new releases like season 2 of Andor premiering on April 22, Disney Plus is a must-have for diverse viewing options.
