Hello,
I have been looking into devices for streaming netflix to my Dumb TV. My Wife would like to be able to watch Netflix, and thats pretty much it as of now. I understand other devices can be used to this end, but all the other devices like Xbox/PS4 we have, are being used by the Children in my home. So im looking for something that fits the following requisites.
Smallish
Cheap
No Bloatware/Crap pre-installed (if possible)
preferably no accounts needed (other than the obvious Netflix one)
HDMI & USB ports are available on my Dumb TV, I also have component.
under $60usd
MY TV is the ELEFT406 "Elements Ghetto Target TV
If you have any advice in this area ("[insert device name] works well, and setup/accounts & bloat were minimal, i recommend it" ) are welcome. Im totally ignorant on this matter. I watched a couple Roku/FireTV setup, info video's, and i noticed what COULD be bloatware, and content im not interested in, but i am not certain of that.....i just like to get what i want, and as close to that as possible without needing yet Another account, and another whatever else.
thanks in advance.
Edit
I noticed amazon fireTV+echo are on $ale now, and if anyone knows if that would work with my TV please let me know( if it is of any consequence, my TV says its "Roku Ready").i know she would love the ease of that....its like the clapper for a tv
