One of the best Android TV sets currently available is the Nvidia Shield Android TV box, which includes a controller (a remote is sold separately), GeForce (a gaming streaming service), and 4K HDR streaming. It’s the best option if you’re into gaming, but it’ll cost you about $200 — at a minimum. However, if you’re not into gaming, you’ll save some money on an Android TV device. There are many other great options available on Amazon, from KudoTV to Matricom, ranging from $30-$100. The following are some of the best features of Android TV:

1. Google Casts Media onto Your TV
One of the best features about Android TV is its ability to work like ChromeCast. You can cast anything — movies, television shows, games, sports, music, etc — from your phone, computer, or tablet to your TV. No wires, adaptors, or additional devices necessary!

2. Gaming
Another great feature of Android TV is the ability to play games, whether you’re playing solo or have multiple players. You can use game controllers, or else your phone or tablet as controllers. You can also play on- or offline, depending on the game. The best part? You can play a game on your phone and then continue it on your TV — exactly where you left off. Your progress will be saved on all of your devices.

3. Voice Search
With this function you can search through your apps more freely. You must say specific commands, but there is a lot of freedom with how specific you must be. For example, if you can’t remember the name of that TV show everyone is talking about, but you know it has Winona Ryder in it, you can command the device to find “television shows with Winona Ryder.”

4. Watch More Than TV Through Your Favorite Apps
All of your favorite media apps are included, like Netflix, HBO Now, and Hulu Plus, in addition to apps such as YouTube, ESPN, BBC iPlayer, Vevo, DailyMotion, and more. You’ll also have full access to the Google Play store, so that you can rent and purchase all of your desired media.

1. Clash of Clans

Build up battalions of soldiers to raid other users’ villages, and defend your own clans from enemy onslaught. If you download this intense strategy game, prepare for your life to have two stages: before downloading Clash of Clans, and after downloading Clash of Clans. Out of all the intensely addicting Android games out there, Clash of Clans definitely takes the cake. You’ve been warned!

2. Bloons TD 5

The Bloons franchise has been one of our favorites, and many users were playing this game long before they got their smartphones. You may have played the Bloons flash games online, but Bloons TD 5 is a totally different beast. Until you try it, you have no idea how insanely addictive it is to assemble teams of dart-throwing monkeys to pop armies of enemy balloons. There is something deeply satisfying about building up an impenetrable defense of weaponized monkey-towers, and watching hoards of balloons disintegrate beneath you.

3. Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes

Last December, the release of the latest Star Wars film nearly overshadowed the Christmas season altogether, with many of us downloading the Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes app, and becoming gleefully hooked. This game uses a turn-based fighting system that pits different characters from the Star Wars universe against each other in battle.

Unlocking new characters for your squad can be a slow grind for non-paying players, so although the game is initially free to download, many users find themselves spending much more money in the app than they’d like to admit. If you’re looking to start an intense, love/hate relationship with a mobile game, we suggest giving Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes a try. Looking for other Star Wars apps? We got you covered.

4. Angry Birds 2

A simple game where birds are flung at pigs in fortresses has become such a widespread craze that it was recently made into an animated feature film. We definitely love this game, but had no clue it would become such a phenomenon. If you’ve never loaded up a slingshot with explosive blue jays, and fired them at a tower full of armored pigs, download Angry Birds 2 immediately. See for yourself why this oddly addictive game took the world by storm.

Get Your Head in the Game

If you ignore our warnings, and spend all day binging on Clash of Clans, your device is going to  need a breather. Use PSafe TOTAL’s CPU cooler to prevent your phone from overheating when you can’t rip yourself away from the game. Know any other gaming apps you just can’t stop playing?
