Hi guys!
This is my first post here. I'm looking to upgrade my PopCorn Hour player and I decided that I need something that has the ability to run XMBC. I was kind of surprised that there are devices running on Android that are able to do that and to do it really good. On top of that you have the ability to choose between all the applications featured on the Android Play Store which is a huge plus for me. That's the reason I decided to try and find the perfect Android based box that will match my criteria. The problem is that the market is flooded with Chinese devices that come with big promises but I am unable to find trustworthy reviews for most of them so that's the reason I want to ask the XBMC community to share their thoughts if they own any of those devices. I want to get an Android box with a Quad-core CPU and 2GB RAM so that my player will be future proof for the next couple of years (I don't expect it to play 4K movies). I want smooth XBMC performance, 3D movie support, Blu-Ray menu support and the ability to bit stream HD audio. Currently I'm looking at those two devices:
- Vidon.me AV200
- Mele A1000G
- JUSTOP Quadro
Can anyone share some personal opinion on those two? Also, you are free to add any other devices that you are aware of (or have in your possession) that match the Quad-core CPU and 2GB RAM criteria.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
I'm creating that table that I'll keep updated with the information coming from this thread.
