Nobody is posting any video indepth reviews?

Hey guys,

I would love to see these thing in action, but not some short video but a review on these boxes, with antutu scores etc....

Is anyone doing that?

Thanks,

Watts

Thanks Javimetal

I just flash with the Beelink M8 firmware with the same result: "please connect a ethernet cable"

It has to be a factory defect.

Maybe. I think this is the first time I see a ethernet problem in a TV box.

Even that box is not from us, I'm total sure they tested before send. Sometimes we also can not understand why some products are working perfectly in china and the problem appears there. "No boots", "frozen at boot logo screens", "no WiFi founds"...

I just back (home) and uploading firmwares to mega. I see it will take a long time.... my network today is really bad and slow.

Is it just the same as the Tronsmart FW?

Do you think that I could flash my Tronsmart S89 elite with the firmware of the showed box? If yes, Can you give me a link.

Maybe It's just a bug in the firmware of Tronsmart.

Thanks

Ultimately I'm looking for a STB that I can resell to clients interested in the archival of their digital content so 5.1 is my main interest. I'm curious to see what happens but I personally don't believe I'll be using the amazon box for the one fact is that I can't easily resell it.

Likely the amazon device, but how easy it'll be for custom kernels, etc is still a mystery (though likely). At least with these I know what I'm signing up for.

Take the Ouya for example. Lots of promise and potential but the manufacturer was misguided an ultimately it was a big let down. It's gotten better with CM11 but look how long it's been out.

If they can fix the 'cant install paid apps bug' and the devs can sort out the kernel for this Tronsmart box it'll be a really great, fast device. At the moment as usual with all new Chinese boxes its fairly buggy. I've been reading this week it looks like Google are heading into the TV box world again. Will be interesting to see what they come up with.

So, what do you think what would be better device:

FireTV or Amlogic S802 M8?

Specs are similar and the price identical!
