Streaming boxes and sticks are multi-talented. They connect older televisions to the internet and turn them into smart TVs. They also spice up modern TV sets, as their user interface is often more responsive and clearer than that of the TV. The boxes and sticks can be used to watch films and series from streaming suppliers such as Netflix, Disney+ or Amazon Prime Video, as well as niche channels, YouTube...

The Waipu.tv 4K stick was specially developed for the OTT streaming platform of the same name and offers users access to more than 280 TV channels, including 285 in HD quality, as well as more than 30,000 films and series on demand within the Waiputhek. The stick is available both in the classic version as a Waipu.tv 4K stick and as a hybrid model with terrestrial and digital tuner...

- Hardware perfectly tailored to Waipu
- Chromecast
- good remote control...
- ... whose buttons are too close together
- Hardly any image and sound enhancement
Anyone who loves classic television will love the Waipu.tv 4K stick. We are not aware of any streaming solution that switches back and forth between channels as quickly.

The 4K stick provided for waipu.tv subscribers is a useful aid for getting the Internet TV provider's offerings onto any TV with an HDMI connection. However, the expandability and memory capacity should be a little more, because during the extensive test it became noticeable that the memory capacity of the device quickly goes to its knees...
- Huge range of channels without further additional costs
- Optional expandable cloud storage for recordings
- unclear programme guide
... What is ingenious about Waipu.tv is how, through the clever integration of media libraries and the automatic recording of programme highlights in the waiputhek, it turns a purely linear TV offer into a large pool of content that can be accessed independently of time, which conceals the lack of a genuine video-on-demand offer...
