Massive Google Android TV leak continues with video teaser of where the interface might be heading - Android Police

Yesterday, our friends at XDA Developers snagged some renders and marketing images from a leaked video of Google's now long-anticipated Android TV dongle, which might get hardware codename "Sabrina." They've also confirmed that Sabrina will come with a dedicated remote, as was previously rumored.

But better than that, they’ve just published a video that includes the new Android TV redesign in action.

Though it contains plenty of supplementary commentary, the video clearly shows how a few different aspects of the Android TV redesign might behave.

The overall design of the new dongle will be a bit more oval than current Chromecast hardware, with what XDA speculates may be a sandstone-like matte texture.

One of those buttons is for the Assistant, and Android TV's usual back and home buttons are also present, plus a new “favorites” button — who knows what that does.

It isn't clear yet if dedicated buttons for any partner streaming services will be included, but it's speculated that a programmable IR blaster may also be built-in.

These stills from the video included in the firmware show off the new "content-focused" interface that the previously rumored Android TV redesign included with Google's dongle will have.

XDA was also unable to confirm the previously leaked pricing, which was set at around $80

Some of these details raise more questions than they answer when it comes to the Android TV redesign, and it's probably tough to judge them in isolation without trying it all out for ourselves

The folks at XDA Developers have since published a video that shows off the UI changes in greater detail, including things like animations, and a couple features that weren’t mentioned in the site’s original coverage
