Newbies buying android boxes, will surely ask about IPTV. I cannot fault you guys for asking, and I don't deny everyone new to android boxes will ask for it. After all android boxes are meant for Home entertainment.
In this forum, we try not to discuss about the pirated IPTV - as it is forbidden by Forum rules, and the thread will be deleted by moderators. There are other platform where they are openly discussed and apps share without limitations.
Only official legitimate IPTV services i.e. AstroGO, UnifiPlay TV, Netflix, Prime, Viu, dimsum, iflix, Disney+... can be openly discussed here. But by no means to say, the contributors do not know about the pirated IPTV. I can assure you, a lot of them in here are upto date with latest free pirated IPTV in the market.
Let it be known, that if casual people like us who knows where to get them - I can guarantee any Android box sellers worth their salt will also know of the latest free IPTV. The problem with these free IPTV is that, they come and go. Users have to be diligent and hardworking enough to keep up to date with latest apps.
It is for this reason, if newbies are buying Android Boxes for older parents that are not technically inclined - please consider subscribing to a 'legitimate' IPTV that can offer guaranteed streaming.
If newbies are still incline on getting affordable solution of android boxes + IPTV apps - DO REMEMBER THIS, the free apps won't work perfectly all the time, and will stop working at some time. Buy your android boxes from Specialist Sellers who can provide good after sales service, and not be fooled by sellers promoting 10,000 movies and 10,000 IPTV channels in their android boxes.
Normally these sellers, sell and then forget about you. Avoid sellers who can't even offer any extra services, as they are merely traders - they obtained the consignment stocks to shore up their store shelf only. Whether they sell or don't, they don't lose money. Also try avoid items where it states "Pre-Order" if you are not certain of the sellers reputation.
If still dunno what to get and feel insecure about unbranded OEM OTT boxes - then get Mibox S. Buy it for the EXPERIENCE of using android boxes for the first time, and when you are more confident - you can sell off the mibox S and get a box that suits your needs.
