For $2.99 or maybe even $29.99 this might be worth the money, but it is absolutely not worth the cost! Avoid the mistake I made and spend your money on something else.
Some details. The remote is cheap and Bluetooth only, which would be fine if this were the cheap model, but it is the PRO!
The interface is pathetic. I understand this is a limitation of Android, but a Nvidia has such a poor implementation that I would call it mutually pathetic. Menus aren't customizable. Why must every device go to nothing but voice? I don't need the button wasted on the remote and I certainly don't need the privacy concerns that go with it (Yes, Amazon can keep their Alexa invasion to themselves).
Finally, performance is abysmal. At least for me, where I am testing the edges of wifi, the performance is no faster than a "smart tv", so why pay extra?
Just buy the Roku or Chromecast you were looking at and save yourself hundreds.
This one is a fail.

Track your heart rate, listen to music or talk hands-free on these JBL in-ear headphones. The ergonomic ear tips twist into your ear and stay in place with TwistLock technology without causing discomfort. These durable, sweat-proof JBL in-ear headphones have a battery life of up to 5 hours and come with a one-year MapMyFitness premium membership.

Too much gimmick, not enough use

The heart rate monitor is a great gimmick, but it makes the ear pieces not just uncomfortable, but rather unusable for me, at least. Additionally, the weight of the volume control actually catches at your neck and constantly pulls on the right ear. If you are looking for a heart rate monitor, I recommend you get a heart rate monitor and if you want headphones, just find headphones as these are exceptionally poor sound quality and, as I said, rather uncomfortable to my ear.
