My Android TV experience was painful until I upgraded to the Google TV Stre
 

For the past three years, my main smart TV experience has been with a 43-inch Android TV from Xiaomi (the TV P1). Everything started out just fine, but the experience slowly degraded to a point where, about once or twice a month, the TV completely froze, forcing my husband and me to dig behind it to unplug it and force a shutdown and reboot.

Then, about a month ago, I got the new Google TV Streamer and I was instantly taken aback by how smooth the Google TV interface has been with it. Is this how a nice TV viewing experience should be? Well, yes, and it’s not just Xiaomi’s fault, either. I think we need to turn our heads towards Google for creating the problem before trying to solve it with the new TV Streamer.
