All TVs claim to do the same thing and yet some perform better than others. Here's my advice based on experience and readings so far... Stay away from android boxes or sticks of RM200, you'll only be asking for trouble later as they are mostly under-powered. Various Mibox users have reported issues particularly with KODI and so I'd avoid that as well if KODI is important to you. As for Netflix, only few certified android boxes CAN stream at 1080p, most just max out at 480p, this is not a fault of the hardware but from Netflix, which refuses to support unofficial boxes. I could easily recommend a box I use here but your previous comment about not being so tech-savvy & coming from a different ecosystem (ATV), its best if you do the research first and fully understand what can be achieved and not, then make your peace with that. Its much easier than you think.

Hint: Get a box that doesn't just say KODI compatible, but one who's devs and manufacturer actively works with the KODI dev team. Search and read thru the android TV boxes thread here on lowyat, Youtube & blog reviews etc... You'll find user's opinions on boxes and brands.
