Walmart Expands Onn/Google TV Line Into Full Smart TVs
Walmart has begun selling Onn-branded smart TVs running Google TV, including a 55-inch 4K QLED set starting at $248 and "The Fresco," its answer to Samsung's art-focused The Frame. The move extends Google TV from Walmart's popular Onn streaming sticks into complete television sets for the first time at scale, while the retailer scales back its older Roku-based Onn devices.
Key takeaway: Walmart moving its own-brand TV sets onto Google TV rather than Roku is a meaningful shift in the smart-TV-OS competition, giving Google a mass-market hardware foothold it didn't have before at this price point.
