Turn my TV into a smart TV

Tried three different Android boxes over last two years and not happy with solution. Navigation of Netflix is clumsy even with wireless keyboard and image quality bus terrible which is probably related to poor CPU on the devices.

That said is there a more slick solution and I really only care about Netflix. Looking for excellent image quality and very simple and seamless menu navigation via a remote.

Do not want to do Chromecast either.

Any recommendations?

Thank you

change in plan. I just bought the simple and very cheap "Roku Express" and it does exactly what I need. Great image quality and very seamless remote.
