Guys looking for some advice please. I have seen several of you before talking about android boxes and kodi I was looking to buy this off of amazon but wanted some advice from the experts before I purchase it? Any help will be much appreciated.
{Ed007's Note - Sorry it's taken so long to answer, Kerzo, you should visit our Android talk page HERE and have a gander at the info there already If it's a Firestick I don't know much at all but Welsbhoy is our resident expert on there and another coulple of guys know a lot more then me, not to mention Ed001s expertise in most things technical.
The one think I will say about buying an android box from Amazon is that there are a lot of cheap Chinese fakes and rip offs of the boxes which last for a while then you get major problems with add-ons updating etc.
I bought a T8 box from EntertainmentBox.com who you can HERE
and apart from all my games consoles etc it's THE best piece of equipment I've ever bought, it's so simple and easy to set up and use and because the company is a real shop the back up service is second to none, with helpful staff at the shop on the phone or on social media.
I've also notices they have launched an H5 box which is only £34.99 and sounds a right bargain to me.
By the way the shop is nothing to do with me so don't think I'm advertising or plugging them for any personal gain. I shopped around and found that sounded the most reliable to me and I have had no complaints so I do recommend them through experience.
Remember though that you can install KODI on most devices to use, but I bought a box simply because I would have needed to buy another laptop to connect to the TV as I use my laptop all day already, the box sounded ideal (and cheaper) and no messing aboout with switching cables and sh1t when you want to watch something - and it's easier for wives to use the box than trying to connect laptops to the TV, mine would never have entertained that idea. Another laptop in the living room sitting here the PS4 was just to watch football and movies was never going to be ideal for her.

Thanks for the info ed one of the lads I worked with sent me a link for the one he has so just went ahead and bought it only £30 so if it goes pear shaped no big loss. Just sick of paying a fortune every month to companies to watch the same old crap. Cheers for your help though.
{Ed007's Note - Good luck with it, Kerzo and any problems don't be shy to ask, no matter how stupid you might think it is. Good on you too mate for stiffing it to SLY etc, I'll help anyone with info about it.}

As ed says be wary of cheap Chinese clones. I'm just about to order one of these looks great piece of kit for the money
Very good site to buy anything from too.
Amazon Fire I love but they being a pain lately with all the updates.
One thing I would recommend is plex servers work a treat on nowtv boxes some are fully loaded with all the streams and vod you will ever need. Simple search on google or Facebook will lead you to them look for ones with good feedback and support tho.
