  • You want a cable-like remote experience built around live TV.

How to choose

For most households, a good Android-based stick or box is the most flexible choice, with the widest selection of players. Dedicated IPTV boxes suit people who want a remote-driven, cable-like experience and nothing else.

Setup effort and cost

A streaming stick costs far less than a dedicated box or a new TV, and both kinds need only a login to start. Whatever you choose, budget for an Ethernet cable or adapter on the main TV; it does more for live sports than a faster processor.
