That box is much older than the new aluminium M8. It's single channel WiFi - new firmware due out soon. Be interesting to see what model (if any) the devs support. 😊

Going to be very interesting seeing all the resellers claiming to have the best M8 support. It will be overwhelming I'm sure.

So far with playing with the M8 (metal case) I dont notice any difference with it compared to the square M8 (Samsung chip) WIFI is absolutely fine (although more testing would be better just to be sure and more testing on other boxes, same model as well)

Front display behaving normal like the T8 and M6 showing boot when its booting up then showing the time afterwards, so not sure why others are seeing just "boot"? No doubt there will be 2 versions of this, possibly more like we seen with the square M8 and what almost always seems to be the case with most TV models out there!

But so far seems ok, plays 1080, no interlacing, WIFI seems fine - not tested ethernet yet.

Will test the T8 next

What firmware are you running - v2.2.3?

[Garym1234]

yeah 2.2.3

13.1 gotham installed as well which I tested for the streams from some sections in some addons within XBMC that play for around 10 minutes then freeze and sound continues, this is not happening either so saves having to change XBMC version.

Could anyone who owns one of these new M8 style boxes comment on the heat/stability of these boxes - I would be hoping having a nice metal case this could only help with cooling?

Does the M8 still get hot but stable or is the temperature kept in check at a lower level.

Also noticed from the internal pictures, there doesn't seem to be any battery backup realtime clock, so what is displayed in standby - still the clock? And can the box be turned off by the remote?

Finally, who is the UK seller that UK owners have bought from?

Any/all answers would be gratefully appreciated.

We can supply UK power adatper , but we are in china ,you can order from our online shop

Silver M8S

Has anybody seen this new silver M8 S with a camera? Does anyone know the differences in this box and the regular m8? Will this M8 S run Stane linux just as well as the original M8?

It looks completely different from my M8. Why don't you buy one & then you can tell us if it's compatible?
