The Full Onn Lineup
From cheapest to most capable: the Onn HD Streaming Stick, Onn 4K Streaming Box, Onn 4K Streaming Stick, Onn 4K Plus, and the newest Onn 4K Pro (2026). All of them run Google TV except the entry-level HD Stick, which runs plain Android TV without the Google TV interface.
| Onn HD Streaming Stick | 1GB RAM / 8GB storage — 1080p only, Wi-Fi 4, Android TV (not Google TV) — ~$25 |
| Onn 4K Streaming Box | 2GB RAM / 8GB storage — Wi-Fi 5, HDMI 2.0, Google TV — ~$30 |
| Onn 4K Streaming Stick | 2GB RAM / 8GB storage — Wi-Fi 5, Google TV with Gemini — ~$40 |
| Onn 4K Plus | 2GB RAM / 16GB storage — Wi-Fi 6, Dolby Vision & Atmos, Google TV — ~$30 |
| Onn 4K Pro (2026) | 3GB RAM / 32GB storage — Wi-Fi 6, Ethernet port, Gemini voice, backlit remote — ~$60 |
Price Differences Explained
The jumps in price mostly track RAM, storage, and Wi-Fi generation rather than picture quality — every model here outputs 4K except the HD Stick. The 4K Pro’s ~$60 price gets you the most RAM and storage in the lineup plus a wired Ethernet port, which matters if your Wi-Fi struggles to reach your TV.
Operating System and Sideloading
The 4K Box, 4K Stick, 4K Plus, and 4K Pro all run certified Google TV with the full Play Store, and all of them support sideloading apps like Downloader. The entry-level HD Stick runs plain Android TV, which still sideloads but lacks the Google TV interface and some app support.
Which Onn Device Should You Buy?
For casual streaming on a secondary TV, the 4K Plus offers the best value at its price. If you plan to sideload heavily, run Kodi, or want the most future-proof option, the 4K Pro (2026) is worth the extra cost. Skip the HD Stick unless your TV is 1080p only — it’s the one model that isn’t 4K.
