Yes, absolutely – as long as you follow safe procedures. Delaying updates exposes your TV to security vulnerabilities (especially if you install third-party apps). The risk of bricking is minimal when using official firmware and stable power.
If your Nikai TV is more than 4 years old and runs Android 9 or lower, consider that updates may no longer be available. In that case, an external streaming stick (Chromecast with Google TV, Fire Stick) is a better long-term solution. Nikai Android Tv Software Update Download
Some Nikai Android TV models include a pre-installed app called “Local Update” or “System Update” in the apps drawer. If present: Nikai Android TV — Software Update Download Report

Crucial distinction: Unlike smartphones, Android TV updates are rarely delivered directly by Google. Instead, Nikai (or its OEM manufacturer) must repackage and sign the firmware. This means:
Nikai is a budget electronics brand, widely available in South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and parts of Europe. They produce affordable Android TVs, LED/LCD TVs, and home appliances. While Nikai does not develop its own operating system from scratch, most of its modern smart TVs run Android TV (Google’s official TV OS) or, in some older or lower-end models, AOSP Android (a generic version of Android without Google services).
Because Nikai is not a first-tier brand like Sony, TCL, or Samsung, its firmware update process is less centralized and often more challenging for end users.
