Shop Ethical rating

User profiles
USB in
USB in allows you to connect movies stored on a USB device to the streaming device connected to your TV and watch the movie on your TV.
Wi-Fi direct
Lets devices directly connect to one another without having to join the local wireless network. This means you can connect your device to the TV to show movies stored on it without a confusing setup procedure.
Internal storage (GB)
Even if you're only streaming TV shows, apps are still stored locally. If your streaming device only has a small storage space and you're subscribed to a lot of streaming services, you may find that you need to uninstall apps you're not using.
Ethernet port
Memory card reader
For microSD.
Availability
A Similar model is identical in most aspects except for a few. This means that a majority of its test results are identical so you can reasonably expect to get the same results from the model we tested, but for those aspects which aren't identical, we'll note these as "Not Tested" in the Compare tables.
A Tested model refers to a model that is still current and available in the Australian market. You should be able to order this model through your local retailer, or find it online.
These models can't be found in retailers or online or are no longer manufactured. You may still find these models on second hand websites, or in second hand dealers. Test methods may change over time, so criteria which can't be directly compared will contain an N/A.
An Identical model is exactly that. Performance characteristics will be identical and the only difference will be something trivial such as colour, which won't have an impact on performance.
These are models we haven't yet tested but that are available.
