- Walmart listed a new version of its Onn 4K Pro streaming box on its website, discovered after a Reddit user posted images of a 2026 model purchased in California.
- Onn 4K Pro now costs $59.88, $10 more than the previous version, and features a larger design resembling the $99.99 Google TV Streamer 4K.
- Onn 4K Pro retains 3 GB RAM, 32 GB storage, 4K Ultra UHD, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, Wi‑Fi 6, and an Ethernet port.
- Google Gemini support is added, enabling improved hands‑free voice control, search, and recommendations.
- Matter‑over‑Thread compatibility is included, allowing the streamer to control other smart‑home devices.
- Walmart joined the Connectivity Standards Alliance, the body that developed the Matter protocol.
- Remote now supports voice‑based location, though its design is unchanged.
Why it matters: Consumers gain a low‑cost streaming box that now supports Google’s Gemini AI for voice navigation and Matter‑over‑Thread for smart‑home control, while Walmart expands its hardware portfolio and aligns with the Connectivity Standards Alliance, potentially shifting demand away from pricier rivals such as the Google TV Streamer 4K.
