Looking at getting one of these but has anyone already got one to say there all they are cracked up to be ? All seems a little easy for the price

Brother in law has one. We used it a lot over Xmas, was good.
I suppose it all depends on how good your Internet speed is.

Android doesn't work particularly well on a big screen and they're a little clunky in terms of media experience (even with Kodi installed) but they are what they are in that they're a cheap way to get access to dodge media on your TV.
Although, Geek Day?

As above tbh, actually using the thing is pretty horrible but once you're streaming whatever it is you want they do the job.
One tip, if you're gonna run with the supplied remote, 100% make sure it has a mouse mode.

You're better off getting a Pi 2 1Gb. I've got one and runs kodi near seamlessly.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Can do if you like, was going to send you the url but noticed there's no option to register. Could always paypal me and send you the c line,otherwise I could message the site and ask for another login for you.
