Seguro Trongle S2

We test a great-value Android media player that you can plug into your TV to stream all your entertainment from the web.

Seguro Trongle S2

Smart TVs and set-top boxes bring a range of features to your living-room television including viewing catch-up TV, running media players such as Kodi and streaming your own content from other devices. However, most of the big brands are tied into a particular service, such as Apple TV’s dependency on iTunes or Amazon’s Fire TV devices pushing its Prime Video service. If you deviate from these giants, though, you’ll find some media streamers are compatible with a broader range of services and provide impressive specifications for a fraction of the price.

One such example is the Seguro Trongle S2. For about the same price as the latest Amazon Fire TV Stick, you get a set-top box running Android 6.0 Marshmallow that’s capable of outputting a 4K picture (also known as Ultra HD) complete with HDR (High Dynamic Range – a new television technology that gives TVs better contrast and colours). On the face of it, that’s staggering value.
