This Onn TV Stick Review was written by Troy from TROYPOINT. This device was purchased by Troy at his local Walmart. This is an unbiased review where both the good and bad of the Onn TV Stick are revealed. Right when I saw that the Onn TV Stick had hit the shelves at Walmart, I…
Ok, I have a problem that is driving me crazy. We have 5 Walmart onn 4k sticks that keep pausing all by themselves at least twice a day. When you hit play, it will play but no sound. Sometimes you can hit the back button and hit play again and it will work. Most of the time you must reboot, then all works great again. We notice it with Philo, Pluto, you tube, pretty much rules out an app. Reboot router daily (we get 1 gig fiber speed)I even factory reset one of them to rule out all troypoint setup apps, and it started to do it as well. Someone else must be having this same issue?! Help, lol.
If its the latest onn stick, not really much known about them to date, however I believe Troy just did a video about them. My take is to stay away from under-powered sticks as imho they are generally more problematic.
Small package no room to heat to escape. Probably bad design which id overheating. Stick a fan on it.
No matter how many times I see the $14.88 Onn Stick, I always wonder how they can make money selling it at that price. They aren’t powerhouse devices by any means, but dang that is cheap. If you just use a few apps and aren’t hardcore streaming, you could fill up 6 rooms of your house worth of devices for under $100 lol. I know it won’t get purchased very often with the $20 boxes being better, and Onn Pro way better for $50, but still amazes me lol.
