    Could someone please recommend a box to turn my TV into an android TV?
    Something that works smoothly with little or no lag?
    Haven't a clue so I'd appreciate any help at all.

    You need an android box, Nvidia shield is number 1, Amazon, Netflix,iptv etc etc runs smoothly,also for gaming,but if you don't need a top spec one,there's loads for e60/100,pm me if u want more information,or Google Android box( with decent ram)

    Outside of a Shield most of those boxes are junk. Get yourself an Amazon Firestick - the 4K one is on sale at the moment for £39.99 I think.
