A question about : Android TV Boxes??

Hey I'm thinking about getting an Android TV Box as I heard they are quite good for sports and movies however please could someone advise me on here if they are worth getting?

I really hate slow streaming and buffering and this puts me off! Would be good to hear feedback of anyone that has one?

Best answers:

  • I don't have an android box but I do have a HTPC with XBMC (now Kodi) which is what I assume you'll be using for streaming?
    I find it works perfectly well but I have to use a VPN because a lot of internet providers have the main steaming sites blocked.
    Surely the buffering would depends mostly on the speed of your internet connection?
    I use it to watch TV shows as they air in the US and have found it perfect for my needs.
    I don't see why, if you got a decent box, that it wouldn't be exactly the same.
  • Hi there, I have no idea what the best make even is? What's the quality like on yours?
    I have Sky Broadband does that mean all the sites I stream will be blocked via my wifi?
    I want to use for sports and movies etc.
  • How do I set up a VPN?
  • I have an android box and sky broadband mine works fine i dont use a vpn the only problem i have is when my son uses his xbox sport can buffer, really i should get fibre just not got round to it yet
  • What speed does your broadband need to be?
  • I just set-up an android box does anybody have any recommendations of VPN services to use.
