gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-10-12 07:00:00

Gemini has taken over Android phones like the Pixel 10, and soon enough the AI chatbot will invade Google TVs.

If you hate the idea of a chatbot attached to your TV, maybe good picture quality is enough to distract from the proliferation of AI into every product category. In the same vein as Sony’s TV push last year with its Bravia series, TCL has a habit

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority Colleague C Scott Brown loved the Google TV Streamer, and it’s easy to see why. The TV box combines a sleek design with plenty of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, Thread support, and a decent processor. However, Acer just announced its own Google TV box in my home market. I quickly realized that if I had to choose between buying a grey-market Google TV Streamer and the Acer box, one omission is keeping me from firmly embracing the Google device. Do you want a
