Google TV Streamer 4K falls to $75 for Black Friday — best streamer pick at a record low

The Google TV Streamer 4K is on sale for $75 as part of Black Friday promotions — the lowest price we’ve seen so far for this set‑top device. If you want to add modern streaming features to an older TV without buying a whole new set, this is one of the best value purchases right now.

The streamer upgrades Google’s hardware lineup with a faster processor (about 22% quicker than prior models), 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, which helps with smoother app switching and better overall performance. It also integrates tightly with Google Home and offers a handy remote you can ping from the device when it goes missing.

Key features

• Performance: Faster CPU, 4GB RAM and 32GB storage for snappier navigation and app usage.
• Design: Set‑top wedge form factor with a compact footprint; you may need an HDMI cable if you don’t already own one.
• Smart home: Native Google Home integration lets you control compatible devices from a TV slide‑out panel.
• Remote: Includes a remote that can be located by pinging the streamer — a small but useful convenience.
• Streaming: 4K playback and the Google TV interface that aggregates content across apps.

Why buy this instead of a new TV

Upgrading with a streaming box is often cheaper and faster than replacing a TV. For rooms where picture quality is adequate but the smart platform is dated or clunky, a modern streamer can add app support, faster navigation and smart‑home controls without changing your display.

Buying tips

• Confirm you have an HDMI cable and a TV that supports 4K if you want the best picture quality.
• Compare the streamer’s interface to other platforms (Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV) — preference for UI and app selection varies by user.
• Check for bundled deals on Nest or Nest Wi‑Fi Pro if you’re also updating smart‑home gear; discounts often pair across Google hardware.
