Yo guys,

Samsung Tizen OS sucks! That said, anyone can recommend a nice android box for below rm300? preferably able to play 4k, Kodi. Thanks! Never heard of the brands so not really sure about reliable they are. Thanks!

What a coincidence! I have a KU6000 too. Don't tell me you have the 50 inch as well? lol
There are quite a number of brands but most of them are all china brands that I never heard of. I'm not really sure how reputable they are and I don't want to spend too much on it either.

Hope people can help us

Appreciate this man! Complete noob about Android TV and what brand to choose from. These recommendation will help us noobs narrow down our choices. I just don't have the luxury to back read plus the brands are unheard of.

Appreciate the advice but the "baby" comment is unnecessary.

Point taken sir. I apologize if my question on the previous post is deemed as redundant. Didn't mean to cause a raucous over a question. Sorry for the OT:peace:

Back on topic.

I was just wondering that other brands are being shipped from overseas while Himedia doesn't. Question is, is Himedia manufactured locally? It seems to be one of the few Android boxes that aren't imported from China. I was just thinking about local warranty and support.

Anyone using X96? Haven't seen anyone posting about it. Bought it for RM 280 in Lazada. The specs looks impressive comparing it with other brands. Can anyone vouch if its good?

Just got mine today. Haven't really compared it with other brands but the one I got is responsive and I can easily behind at the back on my TV as it has velcro strip that I can use. So far so good.

It's good plus it's cheap and it seems like its a local distributor which means you can get your item faster. I bought mine for rm280

In my opinion, I think it is more than enough unless there are games and other apps you would like to install. The purpose of the android box is just to stream anyway so I guess 10GB of ROM is enough.

it happens to me quite often. I would usually clear cache and restart Kodi again.

Guys,

I just recently changed my internet provider. I was trying to connect my MXQ PRO running on Android 5.1 but the WIFI name cannot be found. The setup of my home network is that I have a modem and router which has a wifi name similar to each other. Any thoughts why it couldn't find the WIFI hotspot on my andorid box? appreciate the help!

Changed to Time's 100 mbps plan. My other devices such as phone, PS4 and TV worked but my Android box doesn't. I'm not sure if I need reconfigure some setting in my router to make it work. The modem is detected but the router doesn't

Thank you sir! I'll try it out once i'm at home

You're absolutely correct sir! The box doesn't support 5ghz wifi only 2.4ghz Appreciate those who helped and gave their thoughts about my issue
