Sure bro do your research it's always good but as i mentioned there's hardly a Android media box brand which you can name here and i would not have tried and based on that experience i recommended that instead of wasting money on those so call good for nothing Android boxes you should spend that money to build/buy a Raspberry PI 2. Based on different prices listed on Lelong and depending on how much storage you want in the RPI 2 it can cost you max RM400... This RM 400 will buy you a RPI 2 device with a class 10 32GB sd card and a wireless remote with keyboard at the back.
I have just build one for a friend of mine and that's how much it cost. If you only gonna use it to play online contents and IPTV and you do not have any local media (huge library of locally stored movies) then you won't need even a 32GB card and a 8GB or 16GB card will do which will bring down the cost as most of the Ads listed on lelong/here do include a bundle 8gb sd card and so price can be minus 70/75RM from the RM400. Again if you don't want to use a fancy wireless remote and simple IR or a old keyboard can do the job you can minus another RM100 from the cost.. So as such the device is around RM200 only but i think that would be the best RM200-400 you will spend to build a good performing media box.
If you new to all this i can help you build one and setup with all the cool Add-ons for movies and LiveTVs.
chief Jaan76 u are simply awesome pal....i love ur thread. we should connect since I love technologies as well I have just build one for a friend of mine and that's how much it cost.

a quick check with you chief, I believe you would have done all the necessary tests before;
1. we already have class10 32GB SD Card fully configured with openelec/KODI setup. if you setup OR configure a high storage of USB stick (work as storage ONLY and for booting purpose use the SD card).
2. does it make any difference on the speed and all?
just wonder because I'm a bit of itchy in doing/testing this configuration
thanks in advance for your feedback.
ciao!
