Want to turn your old TV into a Smart TV? Here’s how.
No matter where you are in the world, the main sources of information are radios, televisions, and the Internet, all of which are constantly being improved, whether it’s a new smartphone, tablet, pc, or TV. Every single day, there are so many of these devices that come out with new features and better specs. Not too long ago, it was normal to keep a TV set for years without replacing or upgrading it, but now devices become outdated unbelievably quickly. So what should we do? Just keep on buying the newest models as soon as they come out, and throw out our now outdated TVs? Well, we’re here to tell you, that you don’t have to!
Nowadays, you don’t have to throw out your old TV to get the features of a newer one! All you’ll need is a set-top box, which will turn any old TV into a Smart TV. Infomir’s MAG420 was developed with this purpose in mind. Simply plug the device into your TV with an HDMI cable or with a 3.5mm composite output (for devices without HDMI ports). Once connected, even your granny’s TV will play content like a smart TV, albeit a mid-range one if you really use your granny’s TV. Now those of you who have a TV that’s a bit more recent, we recommend you buy an Android TV device.
What’s the best Android TV box?
First and foremost, you’ll have to know how to choose an Android TV box, and for that you’ll also have to know what is considered a good Android TV box. These devices enhance your simple TV by giving it features which include Internet access, voice search, as well as plenty of different sources to watch content on (network storage, hard drives, IPTV/OTT services). One such Android TV set-top box that we would recommend is the MAG425A.
What makes a good Android TV box?
Features like 4K and HDR support, and Auto-Frame Rate are what you’d want to look out for when buying a set-top box, and these features are some of the MAG425A’s best assets. But its features aren’t limited to this, it also has access to around 5000 games and apps from the Google Play store, as well as a built-in Chromecast feature which enables the user to cast images from a portable device to a TV screen.
The MAG425A’s reliability alone puts the device ahead of its competitors. It has both a Wi-Fi adapter and an Ethernet port. The device also gets regular software updates from the developers to ensure that it keeps up to date with the global trends.
If you’re not looking to spend a huge amount of money on a new TV that would just become outdated after a couple of years, then the MAG425A is definitely the option you’d want to go for.
