Great little Android box. It's tiny! Takes IPTV apps without an issue and is a good alternative to a Firestick

I use the latest Apple TV with a 55 inch OLED screen TV. I didn’t expect the tiny Lemon TV to be able to compete and to be truthful, it just couldn’t but the Apple TV, of course, costs several times as much as the Lemon TV. The Lemon TV is very easy to set up and I was watching Amazon Prime TV very quickly. I thought the picture, for the money, was excellent but it wasn’t true 4K and I’m not sure it was even HD but it was very acceptable. I conclude that the Lemon TV is excellent value for money for standard TV and many people will be happy with it. I’m amazed that such a tiny object can deliver so much. For my own purposes I will be sticking with Apple because I require true 4k resolution.

ProsType-C Power Deliver CompatibleType-C power in generalSmall box very smallConsNo H265 codec (Hvec)H264 work but not H265USB A 2.0 input not USB A 3.0The device works well in general but does not work with H265 files on my 4 TB media drive. My drive is a Corsair MP600 CORE XT 4TB M.2 PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD - Up to 5000MB/s paired with Aenllosi Hard Case Compatible with UGREEN M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure plug it in Typ-C to Type A and would get a black screen on VLC trying to play any H265 files but h264 files work flawless though but most my file are H265 for space conservation.

See pictures attached.The seller advertised the box as having a 'H618' CPU and 16GB internal memory . However, what I received was a box with only 10GB internal memory and a H618 CPU Which performs considerably below what was stated. A typical buyer would be unfamiliar with this if they lacked a technical understanding of these Android boxes.What truly upset me was the lack of support for Disney+. When attempting to download the app from the Google Play store (which does not have many apps to support this box), the app was missing, and sideloading resulted in a user error code. What struck me was that both Amazon Prime and Netflix were limited to 480p or 720p resolutions. Further examination revealed that the box lacked the necessary certification to play such material and that, owing to copyright, the resolutions were limited to 480p or 720p.Speaking with their technical help via Amazon's messaging service, firstly they blamed my technical expertise as they informed me that NO new box has 10GB memory and I could view videos at 4K resolution. After sending them evidence (pictures), it was revealed that this box does not support Disney+ and cannot be installed. They also further verified that this box does not support native Amazon Prime or Netflix streaming, hence why the streaming is locked to either 480p or 720p.Therefore, this box is utterly useless for me as Amazon Prime, Netflix and Disney+ are what I would be using this for.You also have to use their own YouTube app if you want the picture quality to be over 1080p.A utter waste of money!

Class these

I was looking for a way to get smart features onto a projector I had in the spare room (and is taken out into the garden in summer)The device itself seems well made and is incredibly compact… being half the size of the remote and easy to store up behind the tv (or in my case, sit on top of the projector out of sight). Installation was a breeze… plug in, HDMI to TV and then there it is on the TV with a whole host of apps… powered through the USB port on projector.Setupup was rather straight forward to, with the popular apps already pre-installed. I did run into a few errors and it froze up a few times but once they are installed they have been running smoothly so far.If youre not very tech savvy however theres not a lot of documentation included and youve got to feel your way around. Fine for me… for someone not great with stuff like this, it could cause a few headaches.So far all the apps ive tried have been fine and installed.. no compatibility issues yet and that’s something that has caused headaches in the past so this gets a big tick from me in that department.Overall this is a nice alternative to some of the more popular streaming android boxes out there and actually promises slightly better spec than most. Streaming is quick and stutter free. Only thing its missing is an ethernet port if you wanted to be wired.. that could be a deal breaker from some as I do love to be hardwired. For its price though, a nice bit of kit.

OK, so I understand most people do not need a user guide to set this kind of device up but I did.It was more by a process of trial and error I got this working. There is no information even on which sockets or cables to use.The set up menu was a bit clunky - I could not move back to the main menu once the keyboard popped up on the screen. At one point after entering the broadband password it seemed to be stuck and kept sending me back to the set up menu start page.Eventually it all seemed to fall into place and I was able to access the homepage and apps.These seem to work fine and the box has now given me access to NOW which was not available on my TV.I paired the unit with my phone but I could not work out how to cast videos or photos to the TV as of course there was no user guide.Potentially very good but let down by lack of support.

I have a really good wifi connection in my house 500mbps but I keep losing connection on the box when it works which isn't for long it's good quality picture and fast response on the remote so it's a shame it keeps dropping out on the WiFi
