$49.98 is the price for the new Google TV Dongle coming out on September 30, 2020. They will be available for purchase at Wal-Mart at 8:00 am.

I'm hoping this does well enough they release another one with more ram, more storage, and 64bit processor. We need something between MiBox and Shield TV that isn't the Fire Cube.

People really expect ethernet on a compact dongle?

To place it where?

How hard is it to make a product with 3gb of ram, a usb port and decent cpu/gpu?

I was surprised it's not Stadia compatible. Will still need the Chromecast Ultra for that.

My Sharp TV has better specs than this and I hoped to replace inbuilt Android with Sabrina. Shield is still the best option.

Just grabbed one at my store in Arkansas. Scanned the barcode. There were none on shelf, but they happily went to the back and grabbed on for me.

Edit: Unable to check out. When they scan barcode, it shows as in stock, but when checking out it shows as recalled. No one could do anything, left empty handed.

Look, can you sideload Xbox game streaming? Yes? Okay, sold.

Homedepot already has them. I just picked one up this evening. Didn't really need it. But figured I can replace my gen-2 Chromecast and FireTV 4k Dongle all with one device. Plus free up an HDMI port.

If someone doesn't want to spend $50 right now - wait until black friday. I'm sure Google will have these for $30. Similar to Chromecast deals in previous years.

If this has ethernet, it'd be a total killer

That's a good price point.

This is a steal when compared to the similarly speced Mi Box which is costlier with no software support.

The specs on this are absolutely junk. Why would google release this piece of junk?

This is not an android tv alternative. This is just chromecast stretched bit further. Great deal nonetheless.
