Wow, that would be great. How do I get around using gmail address?
I picked one up today from my local Walmart. Setup was straightforward. I appreciate the snappiness and generous amount of internal storage. The wifi is really good too, so I havenât even tried the Ethernet port. I didnât have any trouble adding Projectivy Launcher which is my favorite for ease of setup and customization options.
I would like it more without the speaker/mic built in similar to an amazon echo. It also uses a non usb power cord so you canât just plug it into a usb port on the tv. Not a deal breaker for where i have this one set up, but it definitely makes it more difficult to simply tuck behind a tv. Maybe they will come out with a Lite version next that is a refresh of the little Onn that i have elsewhere.
Also got mine today. Also got the black remote, no back light. Spent about an hour or so with it. Pretty impressive for a $50 box, to be honest. I still think the $20 newer gen Onn boxes are pretty darn impressive for that price point too. Starting to really compile good, affordable options to move away from Amazon devices in the market now. Exciting times.

Sorry. Disregard the picture quality comment i made between Onn pro and Nvidia pro.
Stupid me didnt realize my tv av mode was different between each hdmi input so the Nvidia was getting a better quality set up.
I switched both to the same âDynamicâ mode and they look the same. I havenât compared a video yet but if there is a difference i will repost.
Sorry for the misinformation.

I live in Spain, how do i get hold of one? Im using an old Fire tv box, 2 Firesticks and just recently bought a MeCool KM7+ from China. I love them all but get annoyed when AMAZON update the OS and things do not work like they used to.
So after using the box for 24 hours thereâs only two things that I did not like One was of course I didnât get a backlit remote. The second was having the mic turned off on the box would not allow me to use the voice search in YouTube, this isnât a deal breaker but I have to leave the mic turned on the ONN 4K Pro to have the audio search feature in YouTube. This was the only application that I noticed this issue in. Syncler and Streamio did not have this issue. It doesnât bother me to have the mic on, I disabled the Hey Google feature on the box. Not to mention I already have a Lenovo 12-in smart Clark in my room sitting two feet away from me on my nightstand. I also have an Amazon echo show 15 mounted on the wall to see my security cameras at all times. Just didnât want my TV shows to pause when Iâm turning on and off a bedroom fan light etc. So far so good and I really enjoyed everyone that has replied in this chat. Also I noticed Miki merged the two topics together. Thank You Miki I didnât know how people would react if I started commenting on Troys first impressions since this has been an ongoing chat for myself. Thank you once again to everyone that posted this is a great community letâs try our best to keep it that way.

How many people actually got a backlit remote? Iâm assuming it isnât standard? What model of remote is it, if you donât mind filling us in?
I dont know what to believe.
Good News!
Analiti is now available for the Onn Pro box in the Play Store.
Bad News!
It cut my Onn wifi speed in half from what the other testers were giving me. Im down to 65mbps. Which is ok but not the speed results i was getting with the others. My Nvidia is still around 100mbps on Analiti and over 150mbs with the other.
Is Analiti the most accurate? Could something be slowing my speed with Analiti? I am using IPV on for all tests.
Was able to find one. Works well so far, nice box.

When I use multiview with Tivimate, I can only get two screens without stuttering and buffering.
When I use the shield pro, I get 9 screens without buffering.
In all fairness, this was never meant to be a shield replacement.
But it did what it set out to do, and that is to be of good value.
With Tivimate âsystem pickerâ doesnât work. Says you donât have app for this. Which app? lol
I just purchased one at the Davie Fl Walmart. (now iâll become a patron to figure out what to do with itđ, & reading the threads)

UHD not the Pro.
I went to Walmart on Saturday May 11, 2024 and they had plenty of the new Onn 4k pro Sreaming Devices in Cincinnati, Ohio. The worker said they would be well stocked.

WowâŚpicked up 2 couple of days ago. Will pick up 2 more and use as primary. Thank-you Troy for the instructions on use. Stream On.
Hello,
I purchased the Onn 4 pro yesterday. I wonât go into all of the tech details though. This box performs better than the Firestone 4k max. The overall experience smoother and quicker. The sound is better than the original Onn and better than Firestick. Or I should say it is a different sound on my Sonos soundbar. Internet speed is about the same, but I canât figure out how to get 6 ghz on my Verizon 5g modem. I mainly switched to run away from the Amazon restrictions. I could not get the remote to power off my TCL TV. I decided to ask Google assistant and it turned off. From that point forward it started to work. This is worth the upgrade over the original. For the money, it performs well in comparison to the Shield TV and MECOOL km2 deluxe for the cost. I use IPTV and other APKâs without buffer. In this regard, I did not notice an improvement though. I hope you find this helpful.
