No, it doesn't require VPN connection unless you want to access to certain US content like Netflix US.

Oic. Coz some apps is keep asking for vpn connection for security.

Bro, u can google out for Tanix Tx3 Max. It came with dual boot and Alice UI. Setting can be select root or unroot. Im using it now. Bought from lzd rm199 pricing. Sufficient to use if you are not into 4k res. Playtv@unifi tested can logon. Im on root selection now. Haven't try select unroot yet.

Thanks everyone to feedback on my queries; Basically I'm looking for Unrooted box to play the following:
1. AOTG
2. playtv@Unifi
3. KODI
4. Preferably can play 4K Videos because this is the trend now.

Depend on your budget.

Tanix Tx3 max meet your requirement especially unrooted box. Spec wise it can support 4k but depending on source and 4k tv.

I using it and confirmed can use kodi and playtv@unifi. Aotg didnt install since i dont have axtro acc and dont have 4k tv.

For me, I'm more focusing on storage and RAM performance.. Internal storage around 16GB is enough for me already, some-more can insert TF/micro SD card support and can move the apps which is not need everything dump in internal storage.

But for RAM is the most important, knowing that the Android drain of RAM if install and launch lot of TV apps unless it's apple TV (Sorry, I less eat apple.. blush.gif )

I always though that watching 4K resolutions, at least need higher RAM and GPU.. Am I say correct? 2GB ram for me might be last longer around 2 or 3 years, then need to change the device again.

For boxes, I won't be play games but more in entertainment. Any suggesting for boxes model number or name for rooted and unrooted anytime? (Don't ask me to google it by myself.. I do a lot of research but getting more complicated..  rclxub.gif ) I just find the boxes not so high price and unroot boxes.. But if can root and unroot boxes anytime with not so extremely high price, that is ok at least I can do some homework for it.. thumbup.gif

If you were thinking andriod box can last you 4-5 years with tight budget. I guess you will end up cant get what you want. No one can quarrantee 2-3 years down the road what will happen on tv box. I bet you should go for apple tv with netflix, youtube and imovie can last you 3 years minimum.

You can always buy h96max with 4gb ram since it meet your budget but i can foresee you will complaint the box later on after couple of months usage and few update. Things will go haywire. As of now 2gb/16gb rom with good firmware support is sufficient for 4k usage and current usage. For how long it will last im really dont know.

If you are able to use playtv@unifi, then i supposed aotg would not be a problem. Think you are pairing with a mouse, no?
*
Tanix remote can use as mouse just without the scroll function. I add additional wireless mouse for scroll and moving.

Aotg cant be install since my selection is on rooted now. I can always switch between root or unroot in this tanix tx3 max. Just i dont feel like watching aotg since i dont have account.

Only iflix unable to get free login with unifi ip address. My tablet is still on free iflix from unifi.

More like hardware issue. Did you connect to avr? Hardware not support the decoding.
