XBMC is not smooth. Very slow on live streams. Live channel lovers please wait for a better hardware acceleration. Especially crashes all the time. Remote with mouse is very irritating. You need a wireless mouse to have easy access to on screen key board and navigation.Rgds,
KalaiI was very disappointed with this item. I bought it specifically to use with my TV (Netflix) and it is not compatible at all. I am not even able to watch YouTube videos. Waste of time product... Buyer beware!!! I will not recommend this item for those of you seeking to use it for the same as I was....This is a complete Android PC. It comes with some popular websites, and Google Play store. You can install various Android apps. You can use this system easily like all other Android tablets and phones. Many Android apps were written for Android tablets and phones. You can still install and use them, without difference. Of course, you need to shuffle the screen left and right to mimic the touchscreen effect. When you open a website, most likely you enter the mobile version, as the website treats your system as Android tablet. Hard drive is sufficient to install many apps.
There are several disadvantages: 1) YouTube. The latest YouTube version does not work on this Android 4.0. But you can install an earlier version. 2) There is no upgrade on OS to 4.1, etc. There is a pre-installed Upgrade icon, but the connection to server does not work.
I recommend you buying a wireless Air Mouse. It works perfect with this system. In the end, this is an excellent product with good performance (response, stability, heat dissipation, ease to use). Inexpensive and complete Android PC.I got this since you can add your own apps the self loaded apps take to the webpage On mine the Netflix did not work you get audio but no video i tried some fixes but still does not work . it work good on youtube and any other apps that are compatible. If you are thinking of buying this one don't try another brandThis is the 4th Android TV box I have tried. It will not launch or run the current version of XBMC. If you intend on using it for XBMC to stream movies you can get much better results from a G-Box Midnight or G-Box Sav for about the same or less cost. At least they work out of the box. If you want the best bang for your money a MK808 beats this thing hands down in performance. It's also less than half the cost at this time. The little MK808 is not without flaw but replacing the stock firmware with the Finless 1.6 ROM makes it a real winner. I bought this one because I wanted to give it as a gift to a friend with an older TV who needed the component connectivity this thing offers. Since it wont run XBMC it's pretty much useless.
