Onn tv box has been around for a few years now. No ads as of now and I have not seen any articles stating that ads will be coming.

43

I wish they would sell these locally in Canada instead of Amazon.

44

Yes, I wish they would as well and please note the ones sold on Amazon are not the same box as the USA ones. Look at the packaging. I waited to get mine from the USA.

With regards to your previous reply to my opinion that Walmart could follow what YouTube
and Amazon are now doing with invasive ads,its only a matter of time before Walmart follows
suit. Walmart’s purchase of Vizeo will enable them to customize Vizeo’s OS and replace Android’s OS with new TV boxes,thus activating ads.

Until this does or doesn’t happen, it’s just speculation. That and a Buck fifty will get ya a small coffee.

Do you have a link to that article?

Yes Miki,speculation. I remember years ago when Walmart said the company would only sell products Made In America. Look how that turned out.

PiratePete- I don’t’t have a link to an article. The Vizeo takeover was announced last month and I believe I heard the info on why Walmart bought Vizeo on a YouTube video. Sorry. If I do remember I’ll get back to you.

Yes but that is no longer speculation but fact. So thankyou for just giving facts. Now lets get back to the 4 K Onn facts thread. Have fun and STREAM ON!!!

While i love my $20 Onn boxes they aren’t irreplaceable. I really just hope that the specs are so good, perfomance is outstanding and the price is so low that Nvidea has to reduce their prices significantly.

I can dream can’t I? :joy:

I’m open minded to see what they offer but i really want to replace my back up Onns with nvidia shield tv pros.

My one and only small problem with Onn is something I mentioned when I first got one. There is no way to adjust the screen size as you can with a FS. Not a huge problem but at times the outer edge of some apps may be partially off the screen but you can get to them. I am also thinking this is not the case with all Tv’s but it is with mine, an older but still stellar LG.

53

LOL Nvidia does not give 2 Shi$s about this part of their business. It’s really meaningless for them from a revenue perspective and I doubt they are watching what Walmart does with the ONN Box

54

In my dream they cared so little about the Shield Pro they lowered the price to $50. :grin:

This is the year I now religate my Shield Pro to a backup roll. Time to explore newer options. Not because I have to, but because I now want backup options other than the Firesticks.

The backup option for your Shield…maybe should be another shield? :wink:

I’d feel like I’d be cheating on my perfect wife if I went with another device option to my shield. :stuck_out_tongue:

PiratePete- Do as follows: 1) From your Search Engine type Walmart purchases Vizeo

  1. An article heading will appear from Walmart’s Corporate Office titled ‘Walmart Agrees To
    Acquire Vizeo Holding Corp.’

The second paragraph indicates using Vizeo’s OS to expand advertising and other functions to
Walmart’s customer base. ONN will likely be one of the messengers,but when is a guess at this
point in time.

Best I can do.

I’m aware of Walmart buying vizeo . I’m talking about ads being put on the onn tv boxes.

Miki’s got the itch to do some 'sperimenting, eh?

Good news for us, we’ll learn something on his dime :+1:
