Google TV Streamer just got a 50% price hike, but here’s how you can get it at the older price
The older price still exists at a few places — but only until current stocks last.
Google has recently increased the price of its Google TV Streamer 4K by 50%, citing rising costs of components as the reason behind the hike. The Streamer, launched in 2024, is a powerful device that transforms any screen or older dumb TV into a smart one. Its 4GB RAM allows for smooth scrolling of the ad-laden Google TV homepage and ensures quick Google TV updates.
However, the increased RAM is contributing to Google's manufacturing expenses due to AI-related RAM and storage shortages, leading to the price rise. The device, initially sold at a 25% discount in July, is now priced at $149.99, up from $99.99. While the price change has been updated on the Google Store and Best Buy, Amazon and Walmart are still selling remaining units at the previous price of $99.99.
