Hi, which is the best ?
MXIII G or Beelink i68 ?
the main difference is CPU/GPU
MXIII G: Amlogic S812 Quad Core processor with the Octa Core ARM Mali-450 graphics engine
Beelink i68: Rockchip RK3368 processor with the Octa Core 64 bit Cortex A53 graphics engine
Both have
Android 5.1
2G / 8G
Wifi 2.4Ghz /5.8 Ghz
1000 Mbits RJ45 ethernet
Bluetooth 4.0
4K x 2K H.265 Decoding
XBMC / Kodi
Rockchip has a little more power, but Amlogic software is more optimized. I would choose Rockchip on 4.4 kitkat
It seems to me that Lolipop still has some issues with these type of SoC
What's wrong with lolipop ?
Note: Beelink i68 got hdmi 2.0 vs hdmi 1.4 for MXIII G

Saw the news about octa core Android TV box with CPU Allwinner A80 and H8:
http://www.cnx-software.com/2014/10/10/allwinner-h8-android-tv-box-soc/
http://liliputing.com/2014/10/zero-devices-z8c-tv-box-allwinner-a80-octa-core-cpu.html
Will both of the two Allwinner CPU be used on OTT box?
hi,
I'm considering one of the many cheap boxes on 'fleabay' and am drawn to Amlogic CPU's, but as my title says the specs confuse me somewhat.
here are 3 for example:
1. MXQ - with Amlogic S805 Quad-Core Cortex-A5 at 1.5GHz - GPU Quad-Core Mali-450 - 1GB DDR3
2. MX111 - with Amlogic S802 Quad-Core 2.0G (Cortex-A9) - GPU Octa-Core Mali-450 - 1GB DDR3
3. M8S - with Amlogic S812 Quad Core 2GHz (Cortex-A9) - GPU Octa-Core Mali-450 - 2GB DDR3
given that the MX111 has a slower CPU than the MXQ, a faster GPU and same ram, it tends to be more expensive,
so a beginner like me could conclude that GPU is more important. - the M8S is the best spec overall so is most expensive.
I have also considered Amazon's TV box (but not the vastly overpriced one's on 'fleabay') but it is the dearest of all at £79.00
it gets great reviews, but I cannot compare the specs to the above as they use:
Qualcomm Quad Core Krait 300, up to 1.7 GHz, 2MB L2 Cache - Qualcomm Adreno 320, 400 MHz (slower?) - 2 GB Ram (not stated as DDR3)
I am on a low budget and 'she who must be obeyed' is a factor so am tempted to go for the MXQ as I am only interested in everyday streaming.
any comments would be appreciated
Hi., I've had the mx3,, but it was riddled with bugs, now Mxq (beelink) which out 3 I bought 2 are still working proper
.WiFi broke.. But with system resources Iv striped the ROM, and shut down anything Google,my free Ram hovers 2-300..

since there there have been numerous views on this thread, but no constructive comments I would ask the moderators to close it -
particularly as I decided to try one of the cheap UBOX devices from Gearbest.

Have you found a way to update your ubox? I have been trying for a very very long time and i have'nt. Do you know a site that shows you how to update it or reprogram it? Mines will not let me get Kodi 17 at all. hit me up on facebook Avis D Freightman or [email protected].
Hello, did anyone tried to use android DVB - T USB stick? Was it working flawlessly?
My other question is if there is any way to stream (Miracast, DLNA,...) games to this box from MSI GS70 6QE Stealth Pro?
Specifications are:
- OS: Windows 8.1 Pro x64
- CPU: Intel® Core™ i7 processor 6th Gen.
- Chipset: Intel HM170
- GPU: Nvidia GeForce® GTX 970M, Intel HD Graphics 530
- RAM: 16GB
- Connectivity: Killer GbLAN with Killer Shield (Killer wi-fi included), Bluetooth 4.1
From past experience with various sticks and accessories I noticed Android only accepts things that come with suitable drivers inside the firmware (or kernel).
If a box alread has the hardware internally then you can be lucky and t works after disabling the original first.
There are some tuner sticks claiming they work with Android out of the box but I never tried one as I have no need and did not want to pay top $ for one to try out.

As I understand the box is nice, but I think the software is cheap.
