Dont waste money and time if you are expecting to watch netflix HD@4K on cheap chinese android box.. please remember only buy the devices listed below if you want to watch netflix in HD@4K:
1. Nvidia Shield
2. Amazon Fire TV (Cube/Stick)
3. Apple TV
4. Mibox S

Cheapest option for Netflix HD? Go for Amazon Firestick (non 4K). The price is cheap, below 200 average. If you are willing to use forwarder, buy during Amazon Sales (Black Friday, Cyber Monday).

In fact, I would really recommend Amazon Firestick. even though you won't get Google Playstore, heck, it is android based. You can still sideload a lot of them apks.

Beelink? Crap. Hacked netflix ESN and must reapply Netflix ESN box if netflix blocked their ESN again and again.

For TX3 (Using the S905X3, not the mini/max which is using S905W CPU), only go for 4GB.. 2GB is only single band wifi.. don't be stingy.. go ahead and spend your hard earn money..

ah, yes... i meant a proven chipset with higher ram.
big ram but lousy chipset, no use...
can stinge, get lowest price if it satisfy yr requirements!
i have no tool to confirm with numbers, hard data.

but i can say a better box will produce better video (and audio) than a poorer one.
with same tv (and same AVR), my himedia q10pro (rm600) give better video and audio than rm180 tx3
and that applies to all streams and playback, not just astrogo.

that is to say, the stream may appear poorer in a poorer box.
hardware, build, firmware... all impt beside input signal.

"Better" means different things to different people.

What are the features r u looking for besides better picture quality?

Audio? Home theater? What apps u use often? Netlfi 4K?

Do u do local playback, i.e. yr own videos? 4k, hdr, dolby vision, BDMV?

Or just basics?

yr listed requirements... the key one is DOLBY VISION.
if u mean dolby vision for online streams like netflix, amazon prime, very few can do - shieldtv pro 2019 will do.
will cost a bit and u may not be utilizing hd audio and gaming capabilities.
but i do not know if it can do local playback files with DV.
there are boxes that do DV local playback but cannot do netflix hd/4k!

also, if u r considering ahem apps like myiptv4k... they typically work fine on regular android boxes.
but those running on AndroidTV (ATV) os tend to be a bit fussy, may reject - this u gotta check actual box user.

if u exclude netflix 4k/dv (u use yr TV), more choices.

ugoos am6/am6 pro has good reviews, does dolby vision local playback.

and minix u22xj:

not to hijack this tanix tx3 thread, suggest u can read and ask users of the specific boxes:

shieldtv

beelink

himedia
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4629018/+660
general
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4200167/+6160

For simple popular apps incl astrogo, there is plenty to choose from.

The cheapest being the box of this thread, tx3mini at rm100.

Not the best or greatest box but it works, serves its purpose well.

Now, if u venture into home theater, hd audio, bdmv full menus, that will requure a diff class of boxes.

what pbb promo code?

yeap...mibox s can get 4K netflix but if u want play HD channel AOTG mibox s like's rubish always lagging and buffer and also Unifi@play tv new version can't play with mibox s.
