Android Box and Xbox One

Hi all, have been agonising for awhile between the consoles as I actually have a chance to treat myself for once and have decided on the xbox one. Was just wondering, as I have only one hdmi port on the tv if anyone has used the hdmi in with an android box? Or am I just gonna have to go the way of a splitter? Cheers!

Haven't used it personally but I have a hdmi switcher box. Have 3 hdmi plugged into one socket in TV.

It switches automatically to whichever device is active a d has a remote if you need to change it. Cost 10 quid on Amazon.

I have been using mine with the Xbox for a long time now. When you go to watch TV on the xbox, you just switch to using your android remote then, works no problem.
