QUOTE(renyyz @ Aug 11 2024, 10:12 AM) As long as its support 4k, can play YouTube, Netflix, prime, Web browser and no lag. Take a look at those Intel N100 or N97 mini pc. I'm using it to replace my pc at office and home. Bought another gaming laptop for my son instead. Idling at 6w, max 30w or so (can be adjusted in bios from 15w/25w/35w). Equivalent to 6th Gen Intel. Support AV1. You wont even mind leaving it on 24/7 with 6w idling consumption. Between RM580-700 depending on lazada/shopee with the right discount voucher during double date, 15th or 25th monthly sale. The only weakness is the wifi card. If you use LAN, then its fine. Dual 1G LAN, dual/triple HDMI output. 12GB DDR5 with N97 and 16GB DDR5 with N100. This post has been edited by andrekua2: Aug 16 2024, 08:32 AM |

Requirement : RM150 max FHD only , android 9 also can just for Apps like Youtube vance , kodi , must be smooth on web browser. Can mirror Phone to android box. Must have bluetooth , enough power for usb 2.5 HDD.2 usb port.Can split audio to speaker while HDMI to TV , then can off the LED TV while listening to music or have blueooth to connection to speaker. wifi or lan also can. PRSXFENG andrekua2My apologies... I have given up on Android box since a few years ago. I just couldnt understand why Android box is lagging so far behind when Android phone has so many powerful SoC at affordable price. Most of them still suck at 2GB RAM. |

QUOTE(PRSXFENG @ Nov 5 2024, 08:50 AM) The thing is, the CPU in most android boxes are quite weak, there is just enough power for a basic UI, and the video processing is all handled by dedicated hardware decoder Can check out SmartTube, it's a client like Vanced, but with it's own UI, I think it may have the features you want Yeah, just look at the lagging UI even on expensive Android/Google TV, makes my blood boil. Paying 5k for a TV with subpar Android experience. Tried mibox is slightly faster but ultimately still subpar. As much as people said Tizen is limited, but the UI fluidity is something Android is struggling to match. The only benefit of Android TV is when you want good SQ, you can attach a usb dac. Other than that, nah, Android/Google TV sucks. |

QUOTE(Philippng @ Nov 5 2024, 01:09 PM) i am not sure why are you facing issue with Google TV. My experience with android TV is superb. Not only the built in support that are decently good as delivered. Google TV allow you to sideload apk Which i have compile a iptv much better thatnmost tv box offer, if you are using mibox comparision with google tv i think is unfair Then you use Tizen os with android is again bias Tizen is a sub os comparable to android. Perhap, something is missing is your device or something may not have went well. To put a general comparision is uncalled for. You are mostly looking at it from the software side of things. Did I complain anything about Google/Android TV not working? No... what Im complaining is the hardware that powered most of these Google TV are severely lacking in performance, lagging UI. What is it that you dont get? Using Mibox as comparison to Google TV is unfair? Im merely using a Mibox2 as comparison whereas my Sony X90J is just a 3 years old product IINM. Tizen is a sub os? What is the problem when the hardware Samsung included with the TV is more than capable of offering a smoother and fluid experience compare to most Android TV? Android is flexible, yes but the whole experience sucks with the included hardware. |
