海外TECH	Engadget	The best streaming devices you can buy in 2023	https://www.engadget.com/best-streaming-devices-media-players-123021395.html?src=rss	If you re in the market for a new streaming device chances are you want to improve your home theater experience Maybe you ve been relying on your phone or tablet to binge watch content on your favorite video streaming services or perhaps your TV s built in operating system just isn t cutting it anymore Streaming dongles like the Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite and set top boxes like the Apple TV K are ubiquitous at this point but sussing out the differences between them can be challenging Plus they re not the only gadgets that can deliver your latest Netflix Peacock or or live streaming TV obsession to your screen Let us break down all of the options you have today and give you our picks for the best streaming device you can buy Who needs a streaming device It s worth pointing out that if you only use a couple of streaming services say Netflix and Amazon Prime Video you might not need a standalone streaming device Most modern televisions ship with a basic selection of apps that usually include the most popular streaming services Some TVs and soundbars run on built in Roku or Fire TV operating systems which offer a robust selection of apps without the need for a separate device But if your TV is on the older side adding a streaming stick is obviously much cheaper than shelling out for a new smart TV Also a dedicated streaming device typically has access to a lot more streaming services and apps while content is often presented more intuitively Some devices also offer better search features including voice control Cord cutters in particular will benefit from this sort of streaming hardware as live TV services like Sling TV and Hulu Live aren t always available in basic TV interfaces How to pick a streaming deviceThe most important things to keep in mind when choosing a media streaming device are platform price and what you already have in your home Currently the most popular streaming platforms are Roku Amazon s Fire TV Apple TV and Google TV which is an overlay on top of Android TV All of them offer a similar selection of streaming services with the primary differences being the user interface Roku for example has a basic grid layout while Fire TV and Google TV emphasize personalized recommendations The prices for streaming devices typically start at around and can go all the way up to Sticks or dongles are generally more affordable while set top boxes tend to be pricier The main reason to opt for a streaming box over a dongle is if you need Ethernet connectivity Some models also have additional features like Ethernet ports and faster wireless connections Roku s set top boxes for example have Dolby Vision while its sticks don t Another benefit of a set top box is that they re faster than older TV processors and are easier to upgrade over time There are some feature differences too Fire TV uses Alexa for voice commands for example while Google TV uses Google Assistant In fact when it comes to devices from Amazon Google and Apple it s generally best to pick one that belongs in a previously chosen ecosystem So if you re already a committed iTunes user an Apple TV would make more sense than the Fire TV This isn t a hard and fast rule of course If you depend more on a streaming service than on buying or renting shows the ecosystem question isn t quite as relevant We ll get more into the details of each system later in this guide Below are some recommendations for the best streaming sticks and other budget friendly options We also included suggestions for set top boxes and devices geared toward gamers Best streaming stick Roku Streaming Stick KThe Roku Streaming Stick K plus earlier iterations like the Streaming Stick has long been an Engadget favorite and for good reason It packs a lot of features into a small and affordable package It has a straightforward user interface along with the widest selection of streaming TV options All you need to do to set it up is plug it into your TV s HDMI input and attach the power cable to your TV s USB port After that you can finish the rest of the installation process via the TV interface and Roku remote As mentioned Roku has a large selection of content According to the company you can choose to stream from more than movies and TV episodes Another useful feature is Roku s universal search function which can find shows across a variety of platforms without prioritizing one over another In contrast Amazon s streaming platform prioritizes search results from its own Prime video service The Roku Streaming Stick K also supports Apple AirPlay so it s great for those who want to stream from Macs or iOS devices Additionally the Roku Streaming Stick K supports K HDR streaming and Dolby Vision We especially like Roku s private listening feature that lets you listen to shows using headphones which is useful if you don t want to disturb other members of your household You can do this via the Roku TV app which is available on both iOS and Android The app also works as an alternative to the physical remote control This is especially handy for entering login and password information which is a lot easier to do with a smartphone keyboard than having to hunt and peck using the remote In addition to the remote the Roku Streaming Stick K also responds to voice commands which you can use to search for your favorite shows adjust the volume or enable closed captioning If you want an upgraded remote consider upgrading to the Roku Streaming Stick K It has all the features of the Streaming Stick K except it comes with the rechargeable Roku Voice Remote Pro as well You can find your lost remote by saying Hey Roku where s my remote and it has a built in mm headphone jack so you can use the private listening mode without the app The Roku Voice Remote Pro is almost more than the Streaming Stick K however so unless you really need that fancy remote we recommend the Streaming Stick K instead Runner up Chromecast with Google TVFor years Google s Chromecast was a dongle without a remote It was simply used to stream shows from your phone or laptop to the TV The updated Chromecast with Google TV however is completely different Not only does it now have a dedicated remote control but it ushers in a brand new menu interface plus Google Assistant smarts While the Roku might be our overall pick the Google Chromecast is best for those who like a more personalized interface and robust voice controls The highlight of the new Chromecast is Google TV which is actually a revamped version of Android TV The home screen is personalized based on your watching habits There s a rotating carousel of trending TV shows curated top picks as well as category headers like Continue watching and Trending on Google We especially appreciate the Continue Watching row as it offers a quick shortcut to catch up on programming you were ーyou guessed it ーalready watching There are also algorithm generated recommendations such as Shows about aliens or Shows about murder What s nice is that most of the suggested shows are from services you re already subscribed to If you re a YouTube TV subscriber you ll appreciate the Live TV tab which acts as a channel guide for the service Google has said however that the tab should eventually work with other live TV services such as Sling or Hulu Live We also like that Google TV gives a lot of information about a specific show or movie such as the Rotten Tomatoes rating and all of the different ways you can watch it You can also add it to your watchlist right from the show page regardless of what TV streaming service it s on Renting or buying the show can only be done from the Google Play Movies amp TV store however One of our favorite features of the new Google streaming device is Assistant integration You can make general queries like asking for a five day weather forecast Best of all contextual queries like Find movies with Bill Murray and Show me true crime documentaries all turn up highly relevant results You can also control the TV entirely with voice commands including powering it on and off and adjusting the volume The Chromecast with Google TV supports K HDR as well as Dolby Vision However it doesn t support Apple s AirPlay protocol so it s not quite as compatible with Macs and iOS devices It also doesn t currently carry Apple TV or iTunes videos We should also note that unlike other streaming sticks the latest Google Chromecast can t be powered by a TV s USB port you ll have to use the included watt power adapter instead Best budget streaming device Amazon Fire TV Stick LiteIf price is of the utmost importance and you don t need K Amazon s Fire TV Stick Lite is a decent alternative At it s one of the cheapest streaming sticks on the market it s also frequently discounted too It supports FHD streaming with HDR and just like its higher end siblings comes with an Alexa voice remote One of the reasons this is considered Lite is that this particular Fire TV Stick can t control your TV you still have to use your television remote to power it on and off or to adjust its volume That s not that big a deal especially if it helps save you a few bucks In comparison the standard Fire TV Stick typically retails for while the Fire TV Stick K costs Amazon s Fire TV supports nearly all of the major streaming services including Netflix Hulu HBO Max YouTube YouTube TV and Hulu among others The Live page features Twitch out of the box While you can t use Alexa to control the TV the Fire TV Stick Lite does let you use Alexa to search for shows and ask general questions like the weather forecast or the latest scores for your favorite sports team Despite its low price the Fire TV Stick Lite is a decent streaming dongle It comes with the updated Fire TV interface that adds features such as user profiles a new main menu navigation bar with show recommendations plus a scrolling list of your favorite streaming apps The layout isn t quite as intuitive as Google TV s and is more complicated than Roku s but it s still easy enough to figure out That said the interface tends to prioritize Amazon Prime Video content and there are a lot more ads than on other streaming platforms It s not the best streaming device out there but it s the best buy if you don t have a smart TV and want to update an older set while spending as little as possible For a little more money you could also upgrade to either the Fire TV Stick K or the Fire TV Stick K Max Both feature K HDR Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos but the Max has WiFi support and a faster processor Another budget option Roku ExpressThe Roku Express has the same user interface as the Streaming Stick but it s housed in a compact set top box instead It doesn t support K or HDR and the remote control lacks a voice command button But if all you want is a capable HD streaming device the Express fits the bill If you insist on having K however consider the Roku Express K which retails for It s very similar to the Express except it carries support for K HDR and AirPlay and it comes with a voice remote as well That could well make it worth the extra money Best set top box Roku UltraThe Roku Ultra has the same features of the Streaming Stick and then some There s a wide selection of content a simple user interface and support for K HDR streaming AirPlay and voice commands On top of that the Ultra adds Dolby Vision support along with HDR USB connections a microSD slot for external media and Ethernet connectivity Like the Streaming Stick K the Ultra comes with Roku s Voice Remote Pro The remote also features a couple of programmable shortcut keys that you can map to specific commands like Launch YouTube or Play classical music Best of all the Ultra features a remote finder in case you lose it in between your couch cushions The Ultra is definitely the most capable Roku device on the market but you ll have to pay quite a bit more for it Best premium streamer Apple TV KFor those who want a slightly higher end option and have a lot of Apple devices the Apple TV K could be worth a splurge It can stream in K HDR and Dolby Vision plus it supports AirPlay for streaming from Mac and iOS devices The tvOS platform has an attractive and clean user interface that s also easy to use There s also a One Home Screen feature that lets you sync apps and their layout across multiple Apple TVs and you can use Siri to search for your favorite shows And ever since Apple revamped the Siri remote included with the box it s been much easier to navigate between apps scroll through content and generally find what you re looking for quickly As you might expect the Apple TV is also the only set top box that works with the entire Apple ecosystem This means that you can use the Apple TV to buy and rent movies from iTunes access music and podcasts play games from Apple Arcade and run apps like Fitness Apple s line of workout classes iPhone owners in particular are likely to benefit from owning an Apple TV You can hold your handset up to the box during setup to transfer all of your settings and enter passwords directly through the Remote app which is itself easily accessible via iOS s control center Best for gamers NVIDIA Shield TV ProFor those who want an all in one device that lets you stream movies run a PLEX media server and play games consider NVIDIA s Shield TV Pro It currently runs Android TV which is a little outdated at this point but there s a possibility that it could be upgraded to Google TV in the future Thanks to its capable Tegra X processor the NVIDIA Shield TV Pro can stream in native K and it can also upscale p and p video to K with the company s AI neural network It also supports Dolby Vision and HDR has GB of RAM GB of storage and two USB C ports Additionally there s a gigabit Ethernet port an HDMI socket and a microSD card slot Since it runs on Android you can use it to play most games from the Google Play Store The main reason you d choose the NVIDIA Shield TV Pro over other machines is that it gives you access to NVIDIA s GeForce Now cloud gaming service As long as you have a relatively speedy internet connection you can play top tier PC games that are streamed online to your Shield TV Pro Best gaming console for streaming Xbox Series XEven though both Sony s PlayStation and the Xbox Series X can stream video it s the Xbox that we think is the best gaming console for the job It can play K Blu Rays and supports all of the usual streaming video apps including Apple TV and Disney However the PS can t stream Disney in K or Dolby Atmos which is disappointing if you ever want to watch The Mandalorian in all its cinematic glory Fortunately that s not the case with the Xbox Series X On top of that the Xbox Series X and S also support Dolby Vision for streaming video which is especially great for people with newer TVs Of course the Xbox is also a pretty great gaming machine and it offers access to Game Pass Microsoft s subscription service that has a large library of titles This article originally appeared on Engadget at	2023-09-05 16:50:07

海外TECH	Engadget	The best Chromebooks you can buy in 2023	https://www.engadget.com/best-chromebooks-160054646.html?src=rss	Choosing the best Chromebook given your needs and your budget can be hard to do given the plethora of models on the market today The combination of years worth of software updates and laptop manufacturers making more powerful and better built laptops with long battery life means there are a ton of good Chrome OS machines that work well as everyday drivers But there are some special factors to Chromebooks that you should keep in mind before choosing one From the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex i to the Acer Chromebook Spin our top picks will help you figure out which Chromebook is going to be worth it for you What is Chrome OS and why would I use it over Windows That s probably the number one question about Chromebooks There are plenty of inexpensive Windows laptops on the market so why bother with Chrome s operating system Glad you asked For me the simple and clean nature of Chrome OS is a big selling point Chrome OS is based on Google s Chrome browser which means most of the programs you can run are web based There s no bloatware or unwanted apps to uninstall like you often get on Windows laptops it boots up in seconds and you can completely reset to factory settings almost as quickly Of course the simplicity is also a major drawback for some users Not being able to install native software can be a dealbreaker if you re a video editor or software developer But there are also plenty of people who do the majority of their work in a web browser But Google and its software partners are getting better every year at supporting more advanced features For example Google added video editing tools to the Google Photos app on Chromebooks it won t replace Adobe Premiere but it should be handy for a lot of people Google has also added support for Android apps on Chromebooks which greatly expands the amount of software available The quality varies widely but it means you can do more with a Chromebook beyond just web based apps For example you can install the Netflix app and save videos for offline watching Other Android apps like Microsoft Office and Adobe Lightroom are surprisingly capable as well Between Android apps and a general improvement in web apps Chromebooks are more than just a browser What do Chromebooks do well Nathan Ingraham EngadgetPut simply web browsing and really anything web based Browsing streaming music and video and using various social media sites are among the most common daily tasks people do on Chromebooks As you might expect they also work well with Google services like Photos Docs Gmail Drive Keep and so on Yes any computer that can run Chrome can do that too but the lightweight nature of Google Chrome OS makes it a responsive and stable platform As I mentioned before Chrome OS can run Android apps so if you re an Android user you ll find some nice ties between the platforms You can get most of the same apps that are on your phone on a Chromebook and keep info in sync between them You can also use some Android phones as a security key for your Chromebook or instantly tether your laptop to use mobile data Google continues to tout security as a major differentiator for Chromebooks and I think it s definitely a factor worth considering The first line of defense is auto updates Chrome OS updates download quickly in the background and a fast reboot is all it takes to install the latest version Google says that each webpage and app on a Chromebook runs in its own sandbox as well so any security threats are contained to that individual app Finally Chrome OS has a self check called Verified Boot that runs every time a device starts up Beyond all this the simple fact that you generally can t install traditional apps on a Chromebook means there are a lot fewer ways for bad actors to access the system As for when to avoid them the answer is simple If you rely heavily on a specific native application for Windows or a Mac chances are you won t find the exact same option on a Chromebook That s most true in fields like photo and video editing but it can also be the case in law or finance Plenty of businesses run on Google s G suite software but more still have specific requirements that a Chromebook might not match If you re an iPhone user you ll also miss out on the way the iPhone easily integrates with an iPad or Mac For me the big downside is not being able to access iMessage on a Chromebook Finally gaming Chromebooks are not ubiquitous although they re becoming a slightly more reasonable option with the rise of cloud gaming In late Google and some hardware partners announced a push to make Chromebooks with cloud gaming in mind From a hardware perspective that means laptops with bigger screens that have higher refresh rates as well as optimizing those laptops to work with services like NVIDIA GeForce Now Xbox Game Pass and Amazon Luna You ll obviously need an internet connection to use these services but the good news is that playing modern games on a Chromebook isn t impossible You can install Android games from the Google Play Store but that s not what most people are thinking of when they want to game on a laptop There s another potential change on the horizon as Valve and Google are working to bring the massive Steam catalog to Chromebooks Right now Steam is only available as an early alpha on a handful of devices with higher specs but it works a lot better than I expected Of course you re still not going to run the most demanding games on basic laptops but the Steam catalog is so vast that there are plenty of titles that worked on the Chromebook I tested it with Hopefully Steam will be supported on more devices soon but the list is somewhat limited at the moment What are the most important specs for a Chromebook Nathan Ingraham EngadgetChrome OS is lightweight and usually runs well on fairly modest hardware so the most important thing to look for might not be processor power or storage space That said I d still recommend you get a Chromebook with a relatively recent Intel processor ideally a th gen or newer Intel i Most non Intel Chromebooks I ve tried haven t had terribly strong performance but that s starting to change as we evaluate more of these Chromebooks we ll recommend ones that have enough power to be good everyday computers As for RAM GB should be the target unless you re looking for a budget model and know that your needs are fairly modest Storage space is another place where you don t need to spend too much GB should be fine for almost anyone If you plan on storing a lot of files locally or loading up your Chromebook with Linux or Android apps get GB But for what it s worth I ve never felt like I might run out of storage when using Chrome OS Things like the keyboard and display quality are arguably more important than sheer specs The good news is that you can find less expensive Chromebooks that still have pretty good screens and keyboards that you won t mind typing on all day Many cheap Chromebooks still come with tiny low resolution displays but at this point there s no reason to settle for anything less than p If you re looking for an extremely portable inch Chromebook though you ll probably end up with a lesser screen Obviously keyboard quality is a bit more subjective but there are plenty of affordable options that offer strong typing experiences Google has an Auto Update policy for Chromebooks and while that s not a spec per se it s worth checking before you buy Basically Chromebooks get regular software updates automatically for about six years from their release date though that can vary from device to device This support page lists the Auto Update expiration date for virtually every Chromebook ever but a good rule of thumb is to buy the newest machine you can to maximize your support How much should I spend Chromebooks started out notoriously cheap with list prices often coming in under But as they ve gone more mainstream they ve transitioned from being essentially modern netbooks to the kind of laptop you ll want to use all day As such prices have increased a bit over the last few years At this point you should expect to spend at least if you want a solid daily driver There are still many budget options out there that may be suitable as secondary devices but Chromebooks that can be an all day every day laptop will cost a bit more There are also plenty of premium Chromebooks that approach or even exceed but I don t recommend spending that much Generally that ll get you a better design with more premium materials as well as more powerful internals and extra storage space Of course you also sometimes pay for the brand name But the specs I outlined earlier are usually enough That said if money is no object there are a few really fabulous options out there See Also Best Laptops for Best Gaming LaptopsBest in Laptops for Best Cheap Windows LaptopsBest Laptops for College Students Best bang for your buck Lenovo IdeaPad Flex iLenovo has been making some of the best affordable Chromebooks you can buy for several years now and the IdeaPad Flex i is an affordable laptop that provides just about everything you could want in a basic Chromebook The inch p touchscreen is extremely bright and fairly sharp I wish it had a taller aspect ratio than but it s pretty common in Chromebooks This Lenovo Chromebook runs on a th generation Intel Core i processor and includes GB of RAM and GB of storage While the processor is starting to show its age it should still be sufficient for most tasks Eight hours of battery life is pretty good for a laptop in this price range and the backlit keyboard is excellent for such an affordable device The key caps feel a little small under my fingers but that s the only real complaint I have Other things in the Flex i s favor include that it has both USB C and USB A ports a microSD card slot and a security lock At three pounds and inches thick it s not the lightest or slimmest option out there but it s totally reasonable considering the price Finally the Flex i will receive software and security updates until June of so you can buy this computer and have it covered for years to come Ultimately the Ideapad Flex i hits the sweet spot for a lot of Chromebook buyers out there providing a level of quality and performance that s pretty rare to find at this price point That said given this laptop has been out for over a year now we re keeping an eye out for a replacement from Lenovo as well as comparable options other manufacturers release The Lenovo Flex i is no longer available directly from Lenovo but you can commonly find it on Amazon for about as of this writing it is selling for That s an outstanding value Upgrade option Acer Chromebook Spin Acer s Chromebook Spin has long been one of the best premium Chromebook options out there and this year s update is no exception It s a modest tweak to the model but given how good that computer is I have no issues recommending the latest edition We haven t tested it yet but Acer will have a review model for us soon The Spin features a inch x touchscreen That works out to a taller aspect ratio than you ll get from the p panels on most Chromebooks I m a big fan of taller laptop screens and while this isn t as luxurious as the few ratio Chromebooks on the market it s still a comfortable and high quality screen One noteworthy new feature is the K webcam included in the Spin In a world where we re all doing more video calls than we d like having a camera that doesn t reduce you to a blurry spot is definitely appreciated As for the rest of the hardware the th generation Intel Core i processor should be more than enough power for most tasks and the keyboard and trackpad on the model are solid if not the best The same can be said for battery life I got about seven hours using the Spin in my normal daily routine That s not exceptional but it s in line with what I ve seen on other i powered Chromebooks Rounding out the hardware is GB of RAM and a generous GB of storage space The latest Spin model isn t listed on Google s support page but last year s model is supported until June the latest model s window should run through June of Another bonus is that its hardware meets Google s recommended specs to run Steam so gamers might want to give it a shot and see what games they can install Just as the name suggests the Spin has a degree hinge which lets you use the laptop in tablet mode I m not a fan of this convertible design I don t know who wants to use a plus pound tablet but Acer did include a built in stylus for handwriting notes or drawing in apps like the built in Chrome Canvas The latest Spin costs not an unreasonable price for a computer with these specs and built quality For most people the Lenovo model will be enough But if you re a serious multitasker want a better display and keyboard or just want a computer that ll last as long as possible the Acer Spin is easy to recommend We ll update this guide once we receive our test model from Acer so we can give updated impressions particularly on battery life A good large screen option Acer Chromebook GEAcer introduced the Chromebook GE in the fall of as part of Google s push to make devices suitable for cloud gaming but you don t need to be a gamer to appreciate this laptop For you ll get a inch display with a x resolution and a hz refresh rate NVIDIA s GeForce now gaming service supports up to K visuals at hz on its Ultimate tier so you ll get to see those benefits This laptop also supports Steam yet another reason gamers might be interested in trying it But even non gamers should enjoy the GE s crisp and clear screen and refined hardware It also includes Intel s th gen Core i P processor GB of RAM and GB of storage Given the laptop s size it s good that Acer didn t skimp on ports here there s an HDMI port USB C USB A ethernet and a headphone jack The keyboard has gamer friendly LED lights that you can customize but more importantly it s just a solid and comfortable keyboard whether you re playing games or just typing up reports The trackpad is large and responsive as well The GE only weighs pounds too pretty light for a laptop with a inch screen Between the powerful hardware solid design good trackpad and keyboard and great screen anyone who wants a bigger Chromebook will likely be happy with this model As for support Google says the GE will continue receiving updates until June of Honorable mention HP Dragonfly Pro ChromebookIf you just want the nicest Chromebook you can buy with top shelf specs and design the HP Dragonfly Pro Chromebook might meet your needs For starters the screen is an absolute stand out It s a inch x touchscreen that maxes out at an extremely bright nits The keyboard and trackpad meanwhile are probably the best I ve tested lately The keyboard has an extremely satisfying clickiness when you re typing It s no mechanical keyboard but it felt reassuringly solid and there was no real adjustment period needed when I started banging away on this laptop The large trackpad is excellent with great responsiveness and a solid click There s also a fingerprint reader so you can unlock the laptop without a password another premium feature that I wish I saw in more Chromebooks From a specs perspective the Dragonfly Pro includes a th gen Core i i U processor not the absolute latest but plenty of power nonetheless That s matched with GB of RAM and GB of storage and I definitely noticed the extra RAM makes a difference in responsiveness across the board Other niceties include an megapixel webcam a shooter that exceeds what you ll find on most laptops whether they re in this price range or not HP did this without resorting to a huge bezel either the top bezel is thicker than the ones on the side but not so much that the laptop feels unbalanced And the Bang amp Olufsen quad speaker setup is shockingly good With volume set to about percent the laptop was plenty loud to fill my office and it was also fairly well balanced with prominent bass surprising stereo separation and clear highs These are definitely some of the best laptop speakers I ve ever heard That said there is a major caveat here The HP Dragonfly Pro s battery life is poor ーunder hours poor which is very disappointing for a laptop It s bad enough that I went back and forth on recommending this device People who don t travel a lot and do most of their work at their desk might not care but in that case why bother getting one of the thinnest and lightest Chromebooks out there The other downside is that you don t get a variety of ports here just four USB C and no headphone jack That s not a total dealbreaker as I don t often find myself plugging much into my Chromebooks but again it s definitely worth knowing This laptop is otherwise a total delight to use as it is extremely well built powerful and features a great keyboard and screen I definitely wouldn t recommend it to everyone with these battery issues but if you want one of the nicest
