Chromecast stick for 2017 Sony Android TV

by glove654

I have a 2017 65" Sony Android TV which is somehow getting slower with the most recent updates. I was wondering if I would get better performance by bypassing the original OS and using a chromecast stick instead. What kind of gain should I get from it?

Android TVs in general get slower as updates happen, so the built in Android interface is only usable for maybe a year or two where the screen will last much longer.

A new Chromecast/Apple TV/Roku/whatever will be a much better experience than using what’s built in.

The sticks have pretty disappointing specs, too. I think we're all just waiting for somebody to actually compete with the Nvidia shield.

Get the Onn 4K because it is much more optimized and thankfully don't have the chugging Android 12.
