Walmart Streams Ahead: New Google TV Device Spotted!
8 Apr
Summary
- Walmart's new streaming stick supports 4K and runs Google TV.
- The device was found in a local Walmart, priced at $30.
- It features a quad-core chipset, 2GB RAM, and 8GB storage.
Walmart is reportedly preparing to launch a new streaming device that runs on Google TV, indicating a move to compete directly with Google's own streaming hardware. Leaked information and recent sightings suggest the device, branded under Walmart's Onn line, is nearing its official release.
A Reddit user discovered the streaming stick at a local Walmart, priced at $30, and mixed in with other products, hinting at an accidental early stocking. The packaging reveals support for 4K streaming, a built-in HDMI plug, and specifications including 2GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, and a new quad-core chipset.
This new device aligns with Walmart's existing Onn streaming products, which range from $25 to $40 and are currently out of stock online. This pattern suggests that new product introductions could be imminent. Walmart's history of inconsistent release schedules, as seen with a previous 4K dongle, means an official announcement could follow in the coming weeks.
