    Best android box

    Hello, I've been using minix x5 everyday for one year and I'm quite happy with it.
    Now I'd like to upgrade my hardware and I was looking for the best android box (mini pc) on sale.
    I've been reading about geniatech or minix, what's top notch android mini pc right now ?

    I use it mainly to browse the internet (streaming) and to watch hd content (no xbmc). Since I use it in the dayroom I can't stand any cpu hiccups or any kind of software stuttering, I know it's impossible to find something perfect but I'm just looking for the best android hardware available

    thanks

    Now the best tv box is minix neo x7, my wife just bought a last month. Very smooth to use. I hope can help you.

        Not best but practical android box

        Hi,
        I know a android tv box --Giayee P105.It's not the best one , but it's practical and cost-effective.

        High performance CPU: RK3188 Quad core or RK3168 Dual core ARM Cortex A9
        Rich Multimedia
        support: Watching full screen HD-quality video on upto a 1920*1080 display comes standard for most common media formats.

          went from Minix neo x7 mini 8gb to the Ugoos ut2 32gb

          basically 8gb is useless unless you just want it for xbmc etc.

          apart from that both seem to work well.

          Minix community is dedicated and larger .

          happy with my ugoos at the mini

                  Mirror pc? Using miracast? Miracast always has lag, it's the nature of video over IP.

                    What i meant, it can lag after PC sends a frame, but i don't want stuttering while playing 720p or 1080p video what is the case with t1000 dongle. See the review videos if you don't understand what i'm talking about.

                    Miror pc = miracast, ezcast or some other cast.

                    The point is "i want all of the things i mentioned before in ONE box".

                      I have used many miracast devices and I have only ever seen it reliably play 720-1080p content over 802.11ac

                          It has miracast but doesn't come with it's own PC software support.

                            Learn how to troubleshoot Miracast connections and fix problems connecting to a wireless display or dock in Windows.
