Recommend a Cheap Smart TV Adapter Stick Thing

altomic on 14/10/2025 - 22:37

I have a 50” dumb tv which is being set up in the guest room where there is no aerial socket.
I want to make the Tv smart and run Netflix. Etc

What is the cheapest option(delivered) to make this happen?

Thanks

Amazon Fire TV stick or Google TV with Chromecast.

You just missed the Amazon sales by few days as they were on sale last week.

I'd avoid the new Fire tv sticks as they are rolling out new OS which will stop side loading. Google TV stick more flexible.

I picked up a Xaomi TV Stick 2 from AliExpress and its pretty decent for the money. About $60 on AliExpress at the moment.

Shame you didn't ask while prime day(week?) was on.

They aren't too bad off sale though. That is the best option.
