The editors didn't like

  • It's still kind of janky. There are a lot of loose ends that need to be tied up here. For example
  • When the primary screen refreshes
  • Oftentimes the suggested YouTube videos still link to what was previously in that spot. Nothing is more annoying than cli
  • Anemic app selection. Choppy performance. Inconsistent and limited voice search
  • At launch
  • Native app selection is abysmal compared with that of Roku
  • Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV. The interface seems designed to push users toward Google's media services
  • And voice search doesn't yet include major third-party apps like Netflix or Hulu
  • Limited app selection
  • Can't customize navigation
  • Hit-or-miss casting and mirroring features
  • Has fewer apps
  • Compared to Roku and Amazon products
  • Voice search only works with Google apps
  • YouTube
  • And Hulu Plus
  • Connections drop often (wifi
  • Controllers
  • Etc)
  • Limited storage space
  • Limited games and apps
  • Software experience just doesn't feel fully polished just yet
  • Doesn't have nearly as many apps as Roku. Doesn't come with an HDMI cable. Won't appeal as much to those who don't use Android devices or Google services. While the Android TV platform is very promising
  • It may be best to wait for its app ecosystem to cat
  • 100 ($140 with a gamepad) cost is rather pricey
  • Limited storage means you'll need to be selective in what you download
  • Selection of apps and games are limited for the time being
  • Not nearly enough apps or games yet
  • Best features only work with Google apps for now
  • Some quirky software bugs
  • Limited storage
  • Search results are limited to Google-related content sources
  • Buggy software
  • Chintzy remote
  • No Ethernet port

  • ASUS Nexus Player risulta essere un prodotto interessante ma che ha sicuramente bisogno di essere sviluppato ed arricchito. La sua destinazione non è perfettamente delineata e i margini delle sue possibilità risultano ancora sfumati: è una console, una ...

  • So darf sich Android-TV gerne anfühlen: Der alltägliche Umgang und der Gebrauch des Nexus Players machen Laune. Die Sprachsuche funktioniert hervorragend. Technisch ist die Box auf dem neuesten Stand, lediglich der Ethernet-Anschluss fehlt....

  • Abstract:  Video review: Google startet mit dem Verkauf des Nexus Player in Deutschland. Die Streaming-Box ist eine direkte Konkurrenz zu Amazons Fire TV, aber bei gleichem Preis ist sie eindeutig besser ausgestattet ist. Auf dem Nexus Player läuft Googles Android TV, allerdings ...

  • Leichte Einrichtung und Bedienung, Viele Apps und Spiele im Store, Starke Hardware
  • HD-Filme in Kodi ruckeln, Mit Gamecontroller zu teuer
  • Google startet mit dem Nexus Player von Asus eine neue Invasion aufs Wohnzimmer, im Test bietet der Player eine einfache, übersichtliche Einrichtung und Bedienung. Wir finden viele Apps und Spiele, die Inhalte auf den TV bringen. Allerdings fehlt der let...

  • Gute Bildqualität, Sprachsteuerung, Einfache Bedienung, Spieleauswahl
  • Wenig Online-Dienste, Fernbedienung ohne Lautstärkeregler, Wenig Dateiformate per Netzwerk
  • Der Nexus-Player hat mehr mit dem Amazon Fire TV gemein, als mit dem Chromecast: Die Fernbedienung liegt gut in der Hand und hat ein Mikrofon für eine sehr gut funktionierende Sprachsuche. Lautstärketasten fehlen aber auch hier. Filme gibt es nur aus dem ...

  • Intuitive Oberfläche und Bedienung, USBOTGFähigkeiten, Dezentes Design, Bei Bedarf auch ein OfflineMedienplayer
  • Kaum Apps für Android TV vorhanden, Ohne Apps nicht viel mehr als ein Chromecast
  • So paradox das klingt — aber mich überzeugen die inoffziellen Medien-Abspielkapazitäten des Nexus Player derzeit deutlich mehr als das Online-Angebot von Android TV mit seinen paar Apps. Klar, YouTube, Play Movies auf dem großen Screen oder auch Googles C...

  • Es ist Google erster Versuch einen Streaming Media Player im deutschsprachigen Raum zu etablieren. Wir wollen nicht sagen, dass dieser Versuch misslungen ist aber geglückt ist er auch nicht.Android TV wirkt noch sehr unfertig und wenig durchdacht, die Nav...

  • Het prijsverschil tussen de Nexus Player en Chromecast bedraagt zo'n 75 euro. En dat is een flinke smak geld als je nagaat dat de Chromecast maar 35 euro kost en voor het casten van media net zo goed werkt. De Nexus Player heeft omgerekend een prijs van o...
