Score: 71/100Rankings

The Mecool KM2 Plus is a compact Android TV box delivering 4K HDR with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, plus Google Assistant integration. Its modest 2 GB RAM, 100 Mbps Ethernet, and small internal storage limit performance for demanding users. It fits budget-conscious households needing basic 4K streaming and flexible storage options.

The TiVo Stream 4K is an Android TV-based dongle that aggregates streaming apps and live TV into a single interface while delivering 4K Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.

Professional reviewers commend the TiVo Stream 4K for its content aggregation that simplifies browsing across multiple services and for delivering solid 4K Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos performance at a budget price.
