A high-end set top box
This new Nokia device will arrive in Europe with technical features similar to those of the Chromecast with Google TV that we analyzed a few weeks ago.
Chromecast review with Google TV: the best way to revive a TVWe have reviewed the new Chromecast with Google TV, a device that has become the best way to revive an old TV.
It will use the same processor although we do not know if the RAM and storage will be the same. It will have Android 10, Bluetooth 4.2, and dual-band Wifi. We can also use the Google assistant with the microphone built into the remote.
This remote control will be much more conventional than that of the Google device, with no less than four buttons dedicated to applications:
- Youtube
- Amazon Prime Video
- Netflix
- Google Play Store
It is striking that it is Nokia and not Google that powers the application store.
The differences of this product with respect to the competition is in its connectivity, having a USB-A 3.0 to connect storage and accessories, Ethernet port so as not to necessarily depend on Wi-Fi, optical audio output and AV and DC input.
Price and availability
At the moment the specific date of arrival in Europe of the Nokia Streaming Box 8000 is not known, but it does its price will be around 100 euros, a high cost considering that the proposals from Amazon, Xiaomi or Google itself cost much less.
Of course, the connectivity that this product offers us is much better than that of those rivals, so buyers who see an advantage in that will have their purchase clear.
To fight against the products of those rival brands, Nokia already launched its first Set Top Box in August, with a much tighter price.
