- Speaker-maker Sonos is reportedly working on its first streaming TV box, codenamed Pinewood
- Pinewood would run Android TV and offer an interface that attempts to unify content from all your streaming services.
- Commensurate with the company’s premium speaker pricing, Pinewood could sell for as much as $400.
When it comes to hardware for streaming video, you’ve got plenty of affordable options on the lower end, but what about the more premium space? We’ve got last year’s $100 Google TV Streamer as sort of the diving line between those cheap and pricy models, and while you could move up to the $150 NVIDIA Shield TV or $200 Shield TV Pro, those are both getting a little long in the tooth. What about some fresh blood? We may just have a new option before you know it, as a report outlines plans for a TV streaming box from Sonos.
You’re probably familiar with Sonos as the once-lauded manufacturer of reasonably premium soundbars and home audio solutions. Not only has competition gotten a lot fiercer in that space from more affordable alternatives, but Sonos made a few big missteps when it came to its apps, seriously harming the brand’s reputation. Now as the company looks to what’s next for it, The Verge reports that it’s developing a streaming box codenamed Pinewood.
