It would be very difficult to choose between them, but for me, I think just for the smoothness of Kodi on windows and the ability to use it as a tablet (if you're near a power source), the pipo might have the edge. In saying that, the android box quick boot up, and the amount of stuff preinstalled makes it attractive too. There's also about twenty quid in the difference in them if memory serves me. Verdict = very very close, but the pipo has it by about a whisker.
