The rebranded device appears better in every way but the price.

The CCWGTV performance is a shit at 4K. The UI is far from smooth, some UHD shows randomly drop frames and sometimes I have to restart the device because Netflix and prime stop working.

Eventually I'll replace it, if the new device sucks I might try apple TV.

I mean it's a tiny device after all.

I also now have an HDR 4K 144Hz VRR OLED TV so it would be nice to get a device that supports this max resolution (like the PS5).
