Thanks for the info. Not bad for $99 provided you can do Netflix & Amazon Instant in 4k. Wondering if the HDMI input/output are 1.4 or 2.0.

They stated that they are HDMI 1.4b. Maybe in the future. I prefer they don't include now and focus on delivering the VERY BEST quality 3D Bluray ISO and BDMV ISO playback and keep the price low. They can add later when HDMI 2.0 is everywhere. Because I know that some new Android TV Box with RK3288 chipset are suppose to have it but in the end, they don't have it because their hardware is not ready yet.

Wondering they are using suplying a standard copy of XBMC/Kodi or is it another custom version, and if so have they supplied their changes to the XBMC devs as part of GPL license?
Hardware wise, this might prove to be an interesting box. Price is nice too.

Most of the new 4K Android Box are true 4K media player. Most of them are getting 4K resolution at 30fps and some others ( which are HDMI 2.0 ) are getting it at full 60fps. They probably include 4K in their players because 4K will come at full force in 2015. They are testing it with 4K clips or demos that are available on the web. You can even test 4K VERY effectively with 4K PORN ! I don t want to advertise PORN but the fact is that a porn website is shooting at full 4K resolution since the beginning of 2014 and the quality is outstanding. The Bitrate is 25 mbps which is VERY HIGH by porn standard. They are probably now the biggest 4K content source available on the net. And don't forget that 4K will begin strong with ON DEMAND suppliers like Netflix, Amazon and UltraFlix

bluewhale1 I ordered it on October 2. They ask for 10 days of processing time + shipping time ( I choose 3-7 days with UPS ). But the Seller told me that they already ship it and that they will gave me the tracking number later today. So If everything goes well I should have it between monday and friday next week. Keep fingers crossed !

I hope it works good and look forward to your review. I really haven't seen too many good reviews on any of the Android boxes. I ended up going with a Mede8er 1000X3D as it did everything I needed and got great revews for the price. Would be interesting to see how this player works with day to day stuff.

Wow, nice

Was searching the web for information on this box and found this thread. I am excited to hear your description of the function of this box. Someone asked about Netflix, but if like all the other boxes, all you can expect to get is DVD quality, but I can live with that. I have 8 different Android boxes with the last 2 being the Tronsmart Vega S89H, and the Beelink R89, RK3288. They both are excellent boxes, but like any box there are some trade offs. what I am really looking for is a box that can play OTA (over the air) television broadcast. Both of these boxes plays the mpeg 2 TS streaming files pretty good, but I am looking for a box that can play those streams perfectly. I think this box can do it, just would like someone to test and verify before I add another box to my collection.

thanks, looking for your review.

Here are a couple of links showing what I am trying to achieve with these boxes.

Just received it ! 3days shipped from China. Very fast ! I have been able to track it in every step from CHINA to my house. Great quality service from DHL. Only one thing : I had to pay customs fees of 31.53 $ CAN. So in total I payed the device 99 $ US + 94 $ US for shipping = 224 $ CAN dollars + 31.53 $ CAN for customs = 255.31 $ CAN dollars for a device that was costing intially 111.46 $ CAN....

Hope the product will make me forget those shipping costs. Review will follow soon

So my initial thougths after 3 hours... Very disappointed !

1) NO XBMC pre-installated

2) NO Bluray Menus Navigation

3) Slow response time on the menu navigation with the remote control

4) WI-FI useless ( to much slow for my needs )

5) Internet Browsing not as fast as on my PC

6) Does not work good with Mezzmo ( don't recognize my Bluray rips with Mezzmo )

7) Can't choose the option to adjust the frame rate with video output ( Very frustating you play the movie and it stop playing 2-3 seconds to adjust the frame rate each time ! )

8) No Bd lite menu ( you cannot even choose the chapters !!!! )

8) Some bugs, ect, ect



But there is some good things :

1) Works flawlessy with my 5 TB Seagate Backup Plus drive

2) 3D Bluray ISO playback is flawless ( That's the strong point of this machine )

3) 2D/3D conversion

3) Image quality very strong

4) The interface is nice


My Western Digital Tv Live blow it in the water versus ease of use and configuration ( you can't configure a lot of thing with this unit hardware wise ).

Will contact the seller to see if firmware updates are coming soon because it needs a lot of tweeking.

In fact look's like a product that has been rushed to be on the shelves...
