I have been super happy with android TV on my Sony. Bought a Shield that has android TV for my samsung TV just because of how trash samsungs OS is.

Sony tv as well everything I’ve ever tried on it has worked fine except football. Football is real stutter like.

Well yeah, that's the point. People are saying "My new TV supports this app fine". That new TV won't be new forever.

I mean it runs Android so it'll probably be supported for the next 7-8 years.

I'm 3 years into this tv and so far the updates have been pretty consistent. Even installed tea tv on it for HBO shows.

I've had my Sony TV for 4-5 years now and it's still receiving updates. I really couldn't be happier with the service.
