I have tried several TV boxes prior to this one. I could never go back to them. The software is all the latest on the G-Box. The performance of the box is flawless and super fast. My router is at the opposite end of the house as the TV box and I ended up installing a wireless range extender in between to achieve a 5g 25 MBs connection to the box and the end result is astonishing quality HD content. The remote is very basic, I purchased a mini USB wireless keyboard at the same time to make programming a breeze. It is easily configured for someone with some basic Android and tech knowledge. I am very pleased with mine and highly recommend it.

First off the model i received in the box labelled Q2 was just Q according to about device tab. Unit needed an update right away, it wouldn't even start up correctly till I manually updated the box with an usb stick. After the rough start and setup, it works well, I don't use KODI, but tried it, and it was very smooth. Setup for Netflix, was easy, and works again very smoothly. The ability to attach a hard drive is very nice, and plays most media well. All in all happy with purchase, had hiccups here and there, but most of these devices do.

This box is excellent. With a little tinkering, it is far exceeding my expectations. I am very happy with it. Three things to note: 1. It really performs better if you can use a network cable to your router. It has wifi onboard, and it works okay, but the box really shines if you wire it direct. 2. This is not a plug and play solution, in that you need to spend some time and do some research to configure it to really appreciate its power. My tech savvy wife was curious, when I first set it up, but was afraid of running it. Once I configured the skins to look more like an Xbox or Netflix GUI, she was happy to use it. 3. The remote control is junk. Total and absolute garbage. It won't pick up a signal past 4 feet. I purchased a cheap Rii keyboard remote and I would recommend that everyone does the same or uses a wireless Bluetooth mouse. The frustration level was very high. This is the only reason that this product doesn't get five stars.

Great box, fast, reliable, can't say enough good things EXCEPT one flaw: when it was first started, it wants to set up the network (internet). I wanted to run a hard wire (ethernet) and not wifi, but it simply would not update the firmware like that. The box would freeze on the screen saying "checking for updates" or something to that effect. After a quick search online, this is a common error, and I saw that the best way to do the initial start up is as follows: do not plug in the ethernet immediately. Allow it to detect your wifi network first, sign into it, and then let it update the firmware over wifi. Once done, go into network settings, and plug in the ethernet. Done. And works beautifully. Very happy with the purchase. I also bought the Logitech K400 Plus wireless keyboard to go with it (works great, plug and play so easy peasy) but it isn't really necessary I don't think. The remote on the G-Box is great and works fine on its own.

A little disapointed- I have several first generation and they are fantastic! The new remote is useless, the box took forever to update. The support was second to none- and Amazon took it back and issued a refund extremely quickly. Great customer service on both parties. I will purchase another if they change the remote.

I just use the kodi functionality of this box and it works wonderfully it doesn't drop any frames even while fast forwarding I have not tested any 4K content but honestly I think it should be fine. The only downside to this is that the Android version and it's running looks kind of crappy I'll be much happier if it ran stock Android TV or something like that.

The hardware itself is solid and has no issues

Very happy with this purchase. Item is exactly as advertised. Look at the details before you buy to ensure it is what you seek. For the price it is comparable to any similar box and has the specs for smooth, clear video. Boot up time is very fast. I love Android and works perfectly. Amazon Prime Shipping time is insanely fast. THANKS!!

I would have given it a 5 star but the lack of instructions on setting it up can cause novice users some trouble.
Very powerful android box that runs Kodi very well with absolutely no problems.
Once you turn it on it should automatically update itself to latest firmware.
Once that is done go to playstore and download or update kodi (easiest way if you are unfamiliar with how to download and install Kodi from official website)
In order to access all the free movies and tv shows from kodi you need the proper apps.
Follow direction at this website ( https://www.tvaddons.ag/fusion-installer-kodi/ ) to install fusion repository and install apps like exodus (exodus is replacing genesis, a very popular add on for streaming)
