And do what instead? Serious question as I'm about to buy my 2nd roku product

I like Android TV but there are a lot of better other solutions like using a SBC or a Chromecast.

I have a chromecast but I found it a bit annoying having to use my phone to do stuff...if it's low on power it's a problem, and it can't be chucked around the room really

Look for a Xiaomi TV Stick/Box, in my opinion way better than Roku.

Nvidia shield is a pretty good alternative
