I gave my Raspberry Pi 3 to my sister. So need something to replace it. I could get a Pi 4 but the board alone is £58 for the 4GB model. All it needs to do is play local media over the network/NAS and USB with Kodi ( for library managing) and support for demanding formats like x265.
I'm looking at these android boxes on Amazon but 99% of them look like China crap with mixed reviews for various reasons.
I'm only on a 1080p display for now. But to save buying twice ideally it needs to support 4k.
The reason I was looking into android box instead of a Pi is the price and having to make your own power switch, or a plug with a switch on it, which isn't quite as ideal.
