this is a little different than um roku does it and i kind of like the way roku does it better uh as soon as you are done selecting the apps and while you're still in the setup process it starts installing that stuff in the background so that your tv is more quickly ready so unfortunately with google tv they don't do that so this does take a little bit ▶ TCL 4-Series Google TV Unboxing, Setup & First Impressions - @ 8:44
I personally don't use Roku TV because I had a older TCO and whenever you use it, they start to like get really laggy and then it will be unusable at some point. ▶ This is the ONLY 4K TV I can afford, Is it Good? | TCL 4-ser @ 4:07
