Looking for an Android Box - any recommendations

    I bought an android box about 2 1/2 years ago. In the last number of weeks it has stopped working or gone very slow. To be honest I want to replace it as the memory is very small and I now want to go bigger.

    I am looking for something that runs Android 7.1, 3gb ram and has a hd memory memory of about 64gb.

    I have been looking on Amazon and eBay but the reviews for what to be good devices are mixed.

    Does anyone have any other suggestions and sites that are reputable.

    Thanks

    Budget?

    Not holding on a budget but a limit of €100 -€120 at the very tops. Don't mind as long as I get value for money.

    at the risk of sounding like a broken record; go the extra bit more and get the Nvidia Shield TV and you wont look back.

    currently on Amazon Warehouse £159

    the difference in price in minuscule compared to the massive jump you'll get in performance and flexibility

    Just having a look at this over the last number of days - seriously impressed.

    I've been thinking about this as well, is it worth holding off on purchase until Black Friday, there were some good discounts to be had on it last year?
