Guys, I'm having a dilemma. I've heard a lot about smart TV and their coolness, but lately I'm hearing that plugging in an Android TV box to a led TV is even cooler.

So which do you think is better?
A smart Android TV? Or the combination of a LED TV + Android TV box?

You've said it already -

You have more power over what goes into your TV. Can freely pull the plug when not needed.

Only that you'd be consuming more power_socket as well as HDMI ports + have extra remote control

Sounds good @centilad

But are we sure TV boxes do not compromise on digital security, given that most of them are made by '3rd party' manufacturers?

Perhaps you have experience with either of the above, please share to help local man make a wise decision

Did I hear you say #security?

"Whomever is the saint should be the first to throw stone"

Fbk, Twtr, Inst, Snap, Telegr.. social apps you use aren't safe either. If you also watched "Ron's gone Wrong" 2021 animation movie, you'd understand better.

Rembr I also wrote earlier, that with an external device you have the power to pull the plug. That's security.

Even if you break the Android Box to find out if there's a spycam embedded, the cost no fit tear pocket compared with breaking open your Smart TV looking for spycam. That's security too
