Google TV Streamer 4K Hits Record Low Price: Coincidence or Planned Obsolescence?

The Google TV Streamer 4K is now available at its lowest price ever, but is this just a clever ploy to phase out older models?

Ever noticed how tech giants love to play the ‘guess what’s coming next’ game with their prices? Take the Google TV Streamer 4K, now sitting pretty at a steal of $79—that’s a 21% slash off its usual tag. Funny timing, right? Just as whispers of a new gadget start to swirl, this little guy gets a price haircut. It’s like clockwork. Don’t get me wrong, the Streamer 4K is no slouch with its slick interface and the kind of content switching speed that’ll make your head spin. But, and it’s a big but, it’s missing Wi-Fi 6 and, oh yeah, Google ‘forgot’ to include an HDMI cord. Oops? Or maybe it’s all part of the plan to make the next shiny thing irresistible. Grab it from Amazon or straight from Google while you still can—before it becomes ‘vintage tech’.
