The "S2 Tek TV hot" issue is a known manufacturing compromise. For a $30-$50 device, you cannot expect premium cooling. However, with the simple modifications listed above (specifically the vertical stand and heatsinks), the device performs admirably.
: The device has a plastic chassis equipped with cooling vents on the sides and bottom to prevent overheating, especially during long streaming sessions.
: Runs on optimized versions of Android (often Android 9 through Android 12) or the official Google TV interface, providing access to thousands of apps via the Google Play Store.
