Of my 5 or so posts I've had 1 reply and even that was only to one of the 2 questions and the second question on needed a "yes" or "no" :s
Anyway, I first bought a X88 Pro for £35 but sent it back due to some screen fragmenting kind of thing that I then found out was caused by the True Motion setting on my new LG TV. That aside, the box was absolutely great and streamed everything that I threw at it.
I then bought the Shield Pro 2019 that was £200 and meant to be amazing due to the Dolby and AI upscaling. All the film's I watch are fromifrom my Nas in 4k and I don't use Amazon TV all that much and I don't use Netflix at all.
I noticed no difference in sound atoat all my Bose Soundtouch 300 and the colour in films was absolutely terrible. After some YouTube searches I found a side by side comparison with the King Pro and the guy in the video even pointed out how washed out it is. A bright red plant was pink.
My test movies are usually transformers because there's so much going on and even Optimus prime is pink whereas on the £35 x88 he was bright shiny red. I also suffered system hangs and BBC iPlayer wouldn't work. Again, a Google search showed that this is a very widely spread issue and is all over the net.
What my massively tired head is trying to say is...... If you want to try one, make sure you buy it from somewhere that you can easily return it.
Now I'm on the GT King Pro and because Nothing here is anywhere near up to date and the support is lacking too I'm using the latest stock that's heavily debloated + root + TWRP.
Regards,
Nathan
