Yeah, it's worth it to get the Neo A2 Lite Airmouse + Keyboard.. Majority of the sellers actually bundle both remote & box together. For one, you won't have to worry about compatibility issues. I also like the fact that it doesn't use inbuilt batteries.. Better to use replaceable & rechargeable batteries instead, won't have to worry about an inbuilt battery losing its ability to hold a charge or pull a Note 7 tongue.gif .. The airmouse feels sturdy to hold and manipulate.. The downside for the A2 Lite is, not having a dedicated "_" button.. So to input underscore, you'd have to temporarily enable the onscreen keyboard.

what do you think, compared to Mele F10 airmouse?

Do check it out and let us know the review. Very keen to know whether will it laggy or insufficient when watching kodi or other streaming content. A lot of people in here commented that mibox is not suitable for streaming heavy loading stuff.

You mean this? Unfortunately, I can't make a true comparison, as I haven't used this before. I can point out a few noteworthy items...
*Both do not have backlit keys.. For those with dark theater-style media rooms... This may be an issue.
*The Mele F10 Deluxe does have an "_", but not the "Tab" button. This is useful for toggling video playback, back to full-screen mode.
*The Mele F10 Deluxe looks smaller (overall size) than the A2 Lite.
*The Neo A2 Lite's keyboard is large and has enough space around each key so my fat thumbs won’t run into each other.
*The Neo A2 Lite's power button (infrared) is able to send the Neo U1 in and out of standby/sleep mode, invoke the power menu options and also switch it on from full shutdown. I appreciate little conveniences like that, as it allows me to leave the box permanently connected to its power supply and not having to always press the power button on the box's side to power up.. The Mele F10 Deluxe may be able to do the same, but I can't confirm.

Mele F10 Deluxe has IR learning function. You can use it to control your other devices like TV and etc.

Not cheap if shipping cost is taken into account.

True.. Noticed it doesn't have an Ethernet port.. shocking.gif .. Don't tell me Xiaomi is now taking specs design advice from Apple...The cost of adding an Ethernet port is negligible.. A USB hub with an Ethernet port would not only cost more, for those who'd insist on an Ethernet connection with the MiBox....but since it only has a single USB 2.0 port, both Ethernet and disk I/O will be struggling for a finite amount of time and bandwidth... Oh well, a good 5Ghz router + proper placement should ease that a bit.. On the plus side (depending on who you ask), it's running the Android TV 6.0 OS and can output Netflix at 1080p.. The review video I watched saw it struggling to achieve 4K res on Netflix.. Probably due to poor connectivity or a software bug (reviewer was using a USB hub with Ethernet). Hopefully can be fixed in a future firmware update.. The Nvidia Shield remains the top dog..
