Android tv sticks and mini boxes for tight spaces

A stick tucks behind the TV and powers from a USB port or a small adapter. It suits bedrooms, caravans and rentals where a full box is overkill. This group is ranked by recent orders on listings that ship to Australia.

Sticks run warmer and have less room for ports. Check whether the stick needs a separate power adapter, which plug it ships with, and whether it has Ethernet or only Wi-Fi.

Frequently asked questions

Is a TV stick as good as an android tv box?

For streaming, often yes. Boxes usually have better cooling, more ports and sometimes Ethernet. Sticks win on size and price.

Can I power a stick from the TV's USB port?

Some can, but many TV ports give too little power and cause random reboots. Use the supplied adapter if the listing includes one.
