While the Google TV Streamer isn’t the outright best Android TV box on the market, it is a highly capable set-top box. If you’ve been on the fence about picking one up, Amazon’s Prime Day week sale makes the Google TV Streamer an absolute steal.
Discounts on the Google TV Streamer 4K have historically been few and far between. When it dropped to $85 previously, it was a decent opportunity to save, but it wasn’t a groundbreaking price drop. Today’s discount completely changes the math.
Here’s a quick overview of what you’re getting: The Google TV Streamer 4K launched as the powerful successor to the now-discontinued Chromecast with Google TV (4K). Shifting away from the old dongle form factor, it boasts a sleek set-top box design and massive internal hardware upgrades. Under the hood, you get a 22% faster processor, double the RAM (4GB), and 32GB of onboard storage — plenty of headroom to prevent the sluggish performance that plagued older streaming sticks.

The physical design also leaves room for an integrated Ethernet port and a full-sized HDMI port. Neither cable is included in the box, but considering how deep this discount is, you can easily grab a high-quality HDMI cable with your savings and still come out well ahead.
