Hell, my fucking $2000 OLED came with a shit processor and only 8GB of storage; it's laggy as fuck and only had room for one more app. Had to remove a bunch of crap via ADB just for the TV to be usable. It's annoying as fuck that even high-end TVs come with the equivalent of a $50 Chinese phone under the hood.

Does anyone know of a box I can plug into the TV that actually has a decent CPU, at least 12GB of RAM, and usable storage space? It also needs to run on Android, and have a HDMI 2.1 port for 4K 120Hz support with HDR. I watch a lot of HFR content and stream PC games so this is a must. The remote should also be able to control the TV (including entering the menu), and the Dolby Atmos receiver too. Last thing I want is for the wife to complain about having to juggle 2 or 3 remotes just to watch Stremio.

Fuck TCL. I bought one of their TVs a few years ago. Within a year the backlights went out. Maybe it was just really bad luck, but it turned me off from their products.

Probably just bad luck, they make some screens for LG and Samsung too. They aren't like a nobody brand
