The cheapest official Android TV device is the MiBox S, which is ~$59 from Walmart.

There's the Mi Box (and Mi Box S), the Jetstream box, and the Shield TV. Those are basically your only options for Android TV.

I think you might be thinking that those Android junkboxes are an option but they run Android and not Android TV. If you want an Android TV device (which is what this subreddit is about) then buy a Mi Box or a Shield. If you want an Android box, find another subreddit to ask.

I doubt you find anything satisfactory at that price point.

You can't use all playstore apps with any Android TV, only apps specifically designed for TV. What you might be looking for is a junkbox (aka Android TV Box). This sub don't cover those unfortunately.
