In a twist of events, Walmart’s upcoming 4K Google TV streaming stick might actually only cost $20, but it does make some cuts.
Following the device hitting some store shelves earlier this month, another Reddit user got their hands on Walmart’s new “Onn 4K Streaming Device,” the retailer’s first Google TV streaming stick with 4K output. Initial leaks pointed to a $30 price tag but, as it turns out, that might not be the case.
When buying the device from their local Walmart, this user says it rang up at $19.88, an impressively low price for what is effectively a replacement for the $50 Chromecast with Google TV (4K).
Beyond the price, this latest post also reveals a few more details about the streaming stick including a deep dive into codecs and supported output. Walmart’s new device has Dolby Atmos, but there’s no Dolby Vision HDR. The 4K upgrade does bring HDR support in some apps, like YouTube and Kodi, but it’s not going to be on the same level as devices such as the Google TV Streamer.
The device is shown to be running Android TV 14, with an update hitting out of the box.
Walmart has yet to formally announce this device, nor release it for sale online. Whenever it does go live, it should appear at this link.
