Worth pointing out this isn't any proper Android TV devices, but rather those cheap boxes that are often basically SBCs with AOSP installed on them which are predominantly sold as easy piracy boxes.

Edit: in fact, the article doesn't currently have TV in the title

Can you even get an actual Android TV device now that isn't a Chromecast or an Nvidia shield? Other than a few TVs that mostly come with malware (tcl, Sony, Hisense) I can't think of anything else that has actual Android TV you can buy as a consumer.

Xiaomi makes one, also Walmart carries one called Onn.
