Streaming Devices

Streaming devices are a huge hit during the holiday season and we list some of the best options available.

NOTE: In the past, we have suggested Firestick/Fire TV devices but we are no longer recommending these after Amazon has cracked down on sideloading and blocked 3rd Party App installation.

Instead, use one of the Android TV/Google TV Boxes we have included below.

Onn 4K from Walmart

Without question, the most bang for your buck when it comes to choosing a streaming device is an Onn 4K box from Walmart.

Users can choose between the onn 4K Plus and the onn 4K Pro which both boast fast download speeds, 4K streaming capabilities, and up to 32 GB of internal storage.

Priced at less than $50, you can’t go wrong with either choice but if you are undecided on which one to purchase, check out our detailed comparison guide.

BuzzTV Powerstation 6

If you are searching for the ultimate gift this year, look no further than the Powerstation 6 (P6) from BuzzTV which is the most powerful streaming device available.

It features all the bells and whistles you need – up to 128GB of internal storage, Android 13 OS, and 64-Bit processing power which packs a punch.

With enough RAM to play games, download files, and stream endlessly, this may just be the last media box you’ll ever need.

Google TV Streamer

The successor to the Chromecast with Google TV, the Google TV Streamer is a more advanced version with Google TV OS built right in.

It is still fairly affordable at less than $100 and is oftentimes discounted including right now for just $79.99!

Unlike the Chromecast, you won’t have to worry about running out of space as the Streamer features 32 GB of internal storage so you can install all your favorite apps/APKs without worry.

Best of all – they provide a 30 day money-back garuantee so you can try it for a full month and get a full refund if you don’t like it for any reason!

Aura Subscription Plans

Debrid Services

One of the best gifts you can buy a cord-cutter (or yourself) is a subscription plan to a debrid service that will give you the best streaming links for Video on Demand content.

TorBox

If you are looking for a budget friendly, high functioning debrid service, consider TorBox which has gained tons of popularity recently for good reason.

The biggest benefit is the ability to share your account with family and friends which makes it the gift that keeps on giving! Tons of APKs and Kodi Addons are adding TorBox compatibility and the Essential Plan costs just $36/year (or $3/month).

Premiumize

Premiumize quickly became the most notable Real-Debrid alternative that is fully compatible with just about every app/service you can think of.

It is a bit pricier than TorBox but that is because users can get up to 1000 GB of storage for downloading various files and that is where Premiumize stands out. Check out our review guide below to see if it is right for you.
