The editors liked

  • Much better performance than previous models
  • Full featured remote with backlit keys
  • Easy set up
  • Lots of media codecs
  • There are hints of great and friendly tech in the NSZ-GS7. Startup is near instant
  • And it doesn't take many taps to get to a live-updating list of TV shows to watch
  • Free movies to stream (Netflix
  • Amazon VoD
  • And the rest of the familiar cast)
  • And list
  • The Sony NSZ-GS7 has a vastly improved
  • Double-sided remote for Google TV
  • With a large touch pad and a full keyboard. It's a small
  • Stylish box and the only current set-top box that supports Google TV
  • Well-designed remote. Plenty of functionality. Lots of online services and apps.
  • Doublesided controller has a clickable touchpad and can function as a universal remote. Quick startup. Ports galore
  • Including Ethernet
  • Two USB
  • Digital optical out
  • HDMI in and out
  • And an IR blaster. Will play content from external drives
  • Faster
  • More responsive interface
  • Hardware is simple and ports are well placed
  • Awesome universal search functionality

The editors didn't like

  • A good bit of Internet content is still blocked from Google TV users
  • No easy way to play purchased Google Play movies
  • At $299
  • It's more expensive than many other options
  • That full-feature remote has a confusing layout
  • For every graceful HBO moment
  • There were a dozen to the contrary
  • A channel that wouldn't load
  • A command that wasn't recognized
  • Or an inexplicable green screen of nothing. Maybe it was my cable box
  • Maybe it was my receiver—but that's beside the point
  • The Google TV software continues to disappoint. There aren't dedicated apps for major streaming services like Amazon Instant
  • Hulu Plus
  • And MLB.TV
  • Nor is Google's own movie rental service supported. Major content providers like ABC
  • CBS
  • NBC
  • Fox
  • Comed
  • Not as polished or intuitive as other media hubs. Finding good apps requires combing through many not-so-great ones
  • There are better streaming boxes for less than half the price. Web browsing on a TV is still not fun. Glitchy software means that Google TV is still not ready for prime time
  • Google TV needs more content
  • App selection is lacking
  • Device gets really hot

  • Sony Internet Player เป็นอุปกรณ์ที่ดี ทำงานได้ตามที่มันถูกออกแบบมา ปัญหาคือ Google TV นั้นยังคงมีจุดบกพร่องเล็ก ๆ น้อย ๆ ให้เห็นอยู่ ค่าตัว $199 นั้นก็ถือว่าไม่แพง แต่เมื่อเทียบกับ settop box อื่น ๆ แล้วก็ยังถือว่าค่อนข้างสูงทีเดียว...
