Looking for replacement of my Vero 4K => Google TV 4K? (lemmy.nz)

I've got a Vero 4K to watch photos stored on my NAS. It is a couple of years old and it seems to be dying.

My requirements are:

Watch videos stored on NAS via NFS/SMB
Install Stremio
4K
Available in NZ
Sound doesn't matter too much as I have a simple sound bar.

The Google TV 4K is sold here for NZ$79 and gets raving reviews. It seems I can install Stremio and VLC or Kodi, so that should meet my requirements.

The alternative is a Xiami TV Stick 4K which is NZ$69

I know the NVidia Shield is the best, but they are above budget.

Probably my only concern with these dongles is that they are WiFi based, but I have a very solid WiFi network with an Ubiquiti access point, so that should be fine.

So I'm leaning towards the Google TV 4K, any concerns or considerations?

Android TV can be installed on a variety of cheap boxes if you don't mind getting a bit nerdy and flashing a custom firmware

Thanks, I think that's too much hassle, sorry.
