Then you got loud fans and a poor interface for watching TV.

  Yeah but if you want to watch online stuff on your tv at this point you probably have about 6000 things that can run netflix etc, including the other google tv boxes, the amazon box, generic android boxes, the rokus, the apple tv, ps3/ps4, xbox360/xbox one, ps tv, chromecast, a hdmi cable or htpc etc.

  Is the TV / app interface bad? I've heard good things about Netflix on the Xbox.
  • Touche 12y ago
    The fact that it's a separate "app" is what's bad. On any TV streaming device (Roku, AppleTV, Fire TV) has content right up front on the home screen. XBOX's TV app also contains a lot of ads. And the apps load much slower.

    i really like it. I use voice control for everything. at first you feel like a doofus but eventually it becomes second nature. I also plug the chromcast into the hdmi input, so i can swap and PIP all kinds of stuff (also with voice command), and the upnp (local media streaming) implementation is really good too (having frustratedly used the 360, ps3 versions for years)
