My shield pro isn't great. It's very laggy, and feels old and sometimes just crashes. I can't understand why it doesn't feel as snappy and nice to use as my chromecast.

PC apps like Netflix aren't limited to 1080p?

So just like how my 2020 iPad Pro sometimes wont recognise my $20 Anker USB C cable until I reboot the iPad and the Apple store effectively told me to go fuck myself using slightly kinder words?

The article whines and whines, but doesn't even mention the option of sideloading, especially on fire sticks.

I'd be happy to spend more for a "premium" version - but then they announced the non-4K model so I don't see that happening. :(

Apple TV is the best of the bunch for sure

> Additionally, financial results and units shipped reported by the companies themselves are coherent with these data.

Avoiding the point here I see.

I have a feeling that proper research are those in which Android comes out at the top. Reddit love its bias.

Well tough titties, there isn't a single Android model that sells as much (as reported by Apple, Samsung and others).

The entire article, any link mentioned in it does not provide any data on 2022, Apart from that one graphic which claims to be on mysterious data which does not exist.

Have you ever seen any proper research? Any proper article based on research? If you want to claim something, then you provide the data behind that claim, even with paywall between it.

THERE'S NOTHING HERE, STOP DEFENDING THEM, UNLESS YOU WROTE THAT ARTICLE THEN WRITE IT AGAIN

Does the link you have pointed out provide any data apart from what they say?

I don't know what's the deal, Counterpoint is basically an institution (along with IDC) and they publish these reports every single year. They're trustworthy.

Additionally, financial results and units shipped reported by the companies themselves are coherent with these data.

We are not talking about 9to5

Well, and if you have spent a second to read what I wrote.

They haven't provided any data to prove this, if they claim something they better have some data to base this on. As I said, the article does not mention any data from 2022, and links to a report published in feb 2021 as source

That... that is the source. They do the market researches, it's not The Verge.

Any data to prove this? I can also make an image saying shit like this

The chart image reports the month fo Dec 2022 as source

Based on what's on the website I'm not wrong

>In 2022, Apple became the first brand to capture eight spots in the list of top 10 best-selling smartphones, according to Counterpoint Research’s Global Monthly Handset Model Sales Tracker.

Clinking on the link redirects to this report.
Which says

>Published Date: February 2022

and

>Period: 2019Q1 - December 2021 monthly

iPhone 14 was released on September 16, 2022

I cannot find any report on 2022 data in this article

Since you aren't bringing any proof and financial results are coherent with this ranking yes, that must be it.

That MUST be it

I have Rokus behind a PiHole. They generate a lot of traffic. I think the majority of it is telemetry, as opposed to requests for ads. That being said, I think Roku behind PiHole is about perfect. There are no ads, and its search will let you search for a show and it will tell you which service it's on. I prefer its spartan interface to one that's busy, or has a grid. I rarely channel surf. When I watch TV it's deliberate. A grid does me no good.

The ranking goes from Jan 2022 to Dec 2022. You are wrong.

lmao, based on what's written in the article the ranking is based on report released in Feb 2022, iphone 14 stronk

It was the best https://www.macgasm.net/news/miscellaneous-news/samsung-acquires-media-box-company-boxee-for-30-million/

Because it doesn't validate your pre-conceived beliefs?

The GoogleTV one is probably the best value for your buck.

Switch to Moonlight/Sunshine on the software side if you want to game on your shield. You'll thank me later.

I agree my Apple TV 4K is awesome. So much better than the Roku I used to have. And the integration with other Apple products makes it convenient. I can throw pictures and video from my iPhone up on the TV and also pause the show from my Apple Watch. There is a full virtual remote on my iPhone as well.

But most importantly no stupid ads.

Same, I just ignore the main selections and go to the apps directly. Sideload Kodi for my own collection off my NAS and I am good to go. My Soni has Android TV which is just tolerable enough so I leave it there but all other tv's have been turned "dumb" and use Firetv devices.
