Should i buy the K-R42 ? - Android Stick & Console Computers General

Hi guys.So I`m thinking on buying my first Android mini PC .I`m mainly going to use it for playing games, YouTube,Facebook,surfing the Net and watching movies.So i want a good reliable quad-core - 2GB of ram (with a good GPU) TV Box (preferable) or a TV stick.
I`m thinking on buying the K-R42 (it looks perfect for my needs) but I`m scared of buying this thing because it just got released and has no reputation,and I`m waiting for the Bluetooth version.So has anybody bought this thing?How is your overall satisfaction with this device?Does it have issues?
So should i buy this device or some other device?
Please guys i need your help!
PS: English isnt my native language so if there are any spelling mistakes I`m sorry

Hi !
i've T428 stick computer and i can say it's a good android stick ! Quad core, 2 GB RAM... But some lags perhaps due to a bad rom or bas keyboard/Mouse !
Do you need to have 1080p video ?

Hi
I`think I`m going for the K-R42 the Bluetooth version is already on Presell and I don`t like the stick computers(i don`t know why but that`s the way it is)
I haven't heard anything bad about this device so I hope its a good one ...... I don`t have a TV that supports 1080p so I don`t need 1080p for now
PS: Thanks for the reply

The ROM for this apparently is being used by a dev at freaktab for fixing some of the video problems with other rk3188 devices, so it does seem pretty promising. I'm thinking about getting the Bluetooth version as well.

[Q] Help from all of you ! opinion needed !

Hey Guys, I don't know if I posted this in the right place
I just want to ask you all,
Should I buy the Asus Transformer Ft101 or wait for the prime to drop its price !
I don't have any tablet but I have experience with android .
Is the only difference between those two the tegra 2 vs 3 processor ?
Is ICS coming soon to this tablet ?
Thank you all for the advice . And sorry admins if I put this thread in the wrong section ;-)
Ics is supposed to be out this month for tf101. Prime and its dock r both slimmer which means u lose one usb port. Some have reported wify issues with the prime. I have a tf101 and its great, no issues here.

Avoid the Prime, it has too many problems. (No GPS, Wifi and Bluetooth issues, only mono audio, etc.)
The TF101 is a much better deal, so long as you're willing to wait a while for ICS to come out.
So many "should I buy a TF101" threads. None of them in the Q&A forum either. hmmmm
I guess you should figure it out your self i mean
do you like playing games and stuff
or just browsing the web?
I would buy the TF101... Not really impressed by the Prime, and the Tegra3 SoC seem to be a benefit only to graphic demanding apps (or games ). I would be better to pack some more RAM on it... (IMO: I don't care to see true 1080p HD movies on a 10 inch screen... for that i have a 32 inch TV, and for videogames... not until they all have some sort of game pad support, like GTA3. So the Tegra2 SoC does the job i need more than fine).
For the price and the bugs the Prime is experiencing i would buy today a TF101 if i didn't add one already .
Hey guys, thanks for the advice, I just bought an FT101 with the dock . And as you can see I also bought my first App = XDA Premium :-D Love this app ;-) also I had installed the Revolution HD Rom . I want to use it as my main "Netbook" . Till this oment I had just 2 crashes with this ROM ;-) .......

[Q] Best Android TV Box for streaming

Hi All,
I apologize ahead of time if this is the wrong section to post. I am currently searching for an Android TV box. I have been searching endless on which one is best for HD streaming. I am a total newb at this. I also want to make sure I can run XBMC seamless and that I can run netflix. What are the better TV units and which ones are worth buying. Also do these devices need to be rooted? I want something pre configured...I don't really want something I need begin hacking and customizing.
I saw Jynxbox
G-Midnight
Mini 5
Exoon G Box
Anyhow...any help would be grteatly appreciated.
Cheers
I also have the same question, I am leaning towards Jnyxbox or Geniatech atv1200. I also came across these two Android Sticks that are Quad Core, which would you guys think is better?

919 should be better

[Q] Best cheap tablet from Amazon around $100-$200 ?

Hey guys
I'm from outside the US and looking for a nice tablet for under $200 (yay 3rd-world-country currency restrictions ). Now, I've had an old HTC Magic, then a Motorola Defy and now a ZTE V970M. They're all great phones, with lots of development and nice features, and I'm looking for a tablet that I can get from Amazon with the same or similar features.
Basically, I'm looking for this:
A tablet that is small (7" is enough, I wouldn't mind 10" though) with a capacitive screen (or responsive enough, anyways) with some development other than the stock ROM and Android 4.0+, since I love to make ROMs for android devices. Also, I'm planning to use it to connect it to HDMI TVs, so an HDMI output would be a big bonus. I would also try to use it as a laptop so allowing connectivity to any of those case-with-keyboard things (through bluetooth or USB) is a need. I don't care much for battery life, as long as it can be rooted I can work my way around to make it save battery like hell
Here are the options I've looked at:
Around 180$ & 168$ respectively: Galaxy Tab 2 ( http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472318&sr=1-1 ) and Galaxy Tab Plus ( http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...f=sr_1_19?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472318&sr=1-19 ) but they don't have HDMI output, not even with an external converter, I was wondering if that's true?
119$: The Coby MID7065-8 ( http://www.amazon.com/Coby-7-Inch-A...ref=sr_1_4?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472318&sr=1-4 ) looks good but... it's Coby :/ and also, it doesn't seem to have a CyanogenMod-compatible CPU, and I don't wanna be locked to ICS forever.
165$: The Acer Iconia looks *awesome* ( http://www.amazon.com/Acer-A500-10S...f=sr_1_22?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472318&sr=1-22 ) but it's Android 3.0, is it a good buy if I can upgrade it to CM 10 or a stock 4.0-4.1-4.2 ?
174$: This Galaxy Tab SCH-i800 looks weird, is it any good? ( http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...f=sr_1_50?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472705&sr=1-50 )
104$!!!: This SANEI looks awesome too ( http://www.amazon.com/Android-Scree...f=sr_1_71?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472813&sr=1-71 ) but I wonder if I can upgrade it to more than ICS/JB ? it has a Cortex A9 and I've heard there's some compatible CM around for Cortex chips, so would it be a good buy?
$199: The Kindle Fire HD seems like a good $199 option ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1555100222&pf_rd_i=507846 ) BUUUUUT... it's a reader, and I've had experiences with the B&N Nook Simple Touch that I don't wanna repeat, such as having a very locked firmware and not having all of the working features if I upgrade to CM or something similar :/
Any tips guys? I really need the advice, as I need to make a choice by tomorrow maximum
Thanks in advance!

Yeah but the Nexus 7 is from swappa actually I have to remove that option XD since it doesn't fit my tight time requirements
What about the iconia A500 though? I've seen it has better screen resolution, Tegra 2 and such, plus JB 4.2 judging by the subforum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1136
Acer does make good products and I guess for your needs it would work
