This is a good subject.
Everyone will find that their needs can be met several ways.
Ours was price.
So we went to the Xfinity store and they gave us a great deal to switch to their streaming service. That can only be used if you subscribe.
We opted to buy Xumo boxes (around $60 each at the time) Like the OP we have a mix of Samsung and Sony TV’s. The Xumo remote is programmed to operate any of the boxes. There is an advanced option to change a remotes transmission channel if required.
We have just reached the end of our stream contract and Xfinity wanted to jack the price by $50. So I looked at Quantum and Direct TV. I took the findings to the Xfinity store and within minutes my Stream cost fell below what it had previously been before by a few dollars.
Xfinity know they now have competition and therefore need to compete. But and it’s a big but, they rely on customer inertia. If only a small percentage of customers challenge them they are more than happy to give those that challenge a good deal.
The Xumo box works well, once installed and you have loaded your favourite channels and signed in to you apps. Other options are similarly easy to load and operate.
