Is the Formuler Z11 Pro Max actually worth it over a $50 Firestick?

Getting tired of Amazon's bloated UI and ads everywhere. I just want to turn on my TV and watch my playlist. Everyone hypes up the Formuler boxes and the MYTVOnline3 app. Is it really worth dropping $150+ when a 4K Max stick handles TiviMate just fine?

Nvidia Shield TV Pro in 2026: Still the King or Time to Move On?

Plus, the lack of sideloading capacity (unlike Android TV) makes it useless for things like SmartTubeNext or custom IPTV apps. Are people finally abandoning Roku?

Which device has the best overall remote control?

Forget the OS or specs for a minute. Which streaming device actually has the best remote? I feel like the Siri Remote is too slippery/touchy, the Shield remote is like a weird Toblerone, and Roku's clicking is too loud. Is there a perfect remote out there?
