Nexus Player Review: Android TV Isn’t Ready For Primetime

Android TV is exciting. It’s beautiful. The idea makes sense. And you should probably steer clear till Google gets its shit together. Until it does, the $100 Nexus Player just isn’t a good buy. What is it? The $100 Nexus Player is the first set-top-box to run Android TV, a new fork of the Android…

Boxee Review: Good At One Thing, Bad At Everything Else

Theoretically, Boxee is like a cheaper Google TV that can play back every file type imaginable, as well as stream internet videos through its browser + Flash player setup. In reality, it only does one of those things well. D-Link Boxee Box HD Media Player Size: 4.5″ x 4.5″ x 4.6″, 1.57 lbs. Ports: HDMI…

Do I Need an Apple TV?

By lowering the price to $99, Apple has made a bold thrust into the living room, proclaiming, “This is the streamer for the masses.” But, ho, masses! Should you add this relatively inexpensive box to your increasingly cluttered TV system? As with most decisions, the long answer is: It depends. The short answer: no, unless…

Roku Internet Video Streamers Are As Low As $60, and Do 1080p For $100

Roku’s expanding their offerings with three new boxes: HD at $60, XD at $80 and XDS at $100. With just $40 separating the bottom from the top, why would you not go for the 1080p, 802.11n dual band streaming? Both the XD and XDS have 1080p over HDMI as well as 802.11n (HD is only…

Popcorn Hour A-200 Networked Media Tank Offers Middle Ground Between A-110 and C-200

Very clever of Popcorn Hour to delay the announcement of their A-200 Networked Media Tank until after CES. They must’ve known we’d be scraping the dirge off the bottom of the gadget barrel. Following their cheap-as-chips Popbox streamer which was shown off last week, the A-200 is for the more serious viewers. It streams from…

Syabas’ Popbox Media Streamer Looks Great

That freshly-popped Popbox media streamer looks as good connected to a TV as we were hoping for yesterday. Shown off at the CES Unveiled stand, the size difference between the last model was noticeable, and yup, the price is $130. https://gizmodo.com/syabas-popbox-get-ready-for-the-new-media-streamer-cha-5439293 I had a quick fiddle with the remote on the stand, with the screen-hopping…

Syabas’ Popbox: Get Ready for the New Media Streamer Champ

Take Syabas’ Popcorn Hour C-200, the much-loved streamer of choice for AV nerds. Now make it smaller, add Netflix support and a far superior interface, and cut the price from $300 to $130. That’s the Popbox. The Popbox isn’t a replacement of the Popcorn Hour, which remains on as a giant hackable tank of a…

FlipShare TV Hands-On

Flip’s new companion hardware to their pocket camcorders is a logical extension of the Flip brand. It brings Flip-taken videos (and nothing else) to a TV, and while some may find its simplicity refreshing, others will find it limiting. We knew about the FlipShare TV awhile ago, thanks to an FCC leak. It’s basically a…
