I have wanted something like this device since 2005 and its finally going to be made... I´m one happy android user right now...
Plus its kinda open for developers to add compatibility for their apps... I can´t believe that Sony is the one doing this gadget...

Yeah, it looks amazing. I totally want one. Hope it's under €100.

but, it's a sony
if it weren't for being a sony, i'd say it totally rocked. sony screws up more things with their DRM and locked-in crap.
maybe they're learning... we'll see

I've been hugely interested in this. For me its perfect in function... but not in form. I was really excited when I learned about it because I work in a professional environment where I am constantly surrounded by others and it just looks bad to be always pulling out your large phone (droid x). I also value having a watch over having to check the time on my phone, so that is a major plus for me. I would love to get email updates and check calendar events with a glance (not searching my pockets), so this sounded like it may have been perfect.
It fails in style and ergonomics. It looks like a toy more then a professional accessory. Its very thick compared to a normal watch, it looks even thicker then my Droid X. It comes with a very unattractive Velcro wrist strap (does not deserve to be called a wrist band). It stands out like a sore thumb. Lastly, I'm going to bet the price will be $150+ because its Sony. Sony could have a chance to develop a new accessory market that would have been geek sheik. Instead, I think they may discourage competitors from entering.
First post here, been lurking since I got my new android handset. This is a really helpful forum, glad to be here.

here is a video. i think it looks interesting.

hmm, is it playing music through the wristwatch, or the phone ? very cool, consider my mind changed, assuming sony doesn't cripple-ware it.

I have exactly the same usage scenario. Excellent not to distract others in meetings, workshops, seminars etc.
Just so you know, there's the previous generation Sony MBW-150 series of analog watches with BT and a digital display which you can run with Android, WM etc etc through software such as Openwatch and smartWachM, both by moneytoo whom you can find on the forum.

So it doesn't look like the Live View has vibrating alert function, does it?
This is the best feature of the MBW-150 in order to get alerted about messages, RSS feeds, SMSs, mails etc without anyone else noticing.

That is too cool, way closer to what I was looking for. I really wish they had plans to create and support a new watch variation closer to that, it makes the live view look like one step forward and two steps back. Thanks for the info!

The liveview can vibrate. (it´s stated in the user manual and the vibrating motor is visible in the internal photo´s of the FCC.
Can´t wait for Sony to release the SDK so I can add support for it in my apps.

Just eats up more board realistate -- I don't think thats what Sonys Engineers have envisioned for this anyways. I know personally I want one. So many possibilities as long as the SDK isn't garbage.

You can't get them to work together though as android only allows 1 BT pairing at a time?
Therefore the only way to get music is to plug it into the phone itself - which defeats the purpose of not having the phone on you physically.

This thing better have a more reliable track record than Sony Ericsson's prior attempts at similar watch-type devices. There were WAY too many DOA units and battery life was abysmal, even when it was functioning nominally. Take it from a guy who tried one and got burned by their so-called customer service department.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

Thanks rj3005. Yes I found out once it does vibrate, once I got hold of the manual on FCC. Amazingly SE does not advertise the vibrating alert, though.

It sucks they don't have a release date other than 'before the end of the year'...I'd love to buy this, but without a timeframe of any sort, it's hard to get excited...

Looks pretty cool, but i dont see myself using it.

Wii U Knock Off-- The android device for android gamers?

Saw this online today and was wondering if anyone else thinks it could actually end up being a hit for serious android users who are into gaming. Here's a link to the product page on the manufacturers website. It shows off it containing some pretty good specs too such as, USB OTG, HDMI output, lot's of hardware buttons, pre-rooted, Jellybean 4.1.1, Cloud gaming app, etc.

THOUGHTS!?!?
Update: This area on the website shows other android-based knockoffs.

This device seems really cool. Wouldn't mind owning one of them if it performs well.

Agreed- if it performs well, it would probably be similar to the xperia play, except with a dozen more hardware buttons that can probably all be custom mapped too!

This device is awsome.

I had a play with one recently.. pretty impressed with the build quality and it seemed fairly slick/smooth in operation. Didn't have enough of a WOW factor to make me buy one though - that and the fact that the wife was with me moaning on about how I've already got a PSP that I don't play etc.. LOL!

Thats a good question!!... until i clicked on the above link i hadnt realised they did more than one version!! I had never heard of this manufacturer until about 2 weeks ago..
I'm back in the UK now.. but for anyone else local i saw it in the small Android shop on 2F Amoy Plaza, Kowloon, Hong Kong.
I might even have a picture of it somewhere to see if that can shed any light on it..

Wonder what the battery life is like?

First Impressions:
For those, who studied or learned something in the direction Informatics or electrical engineering: No, I am not reviewing the Linux system Minix here . But now to the actual review. The box is delivered in a mostly black box. The box contains beside the TV box itself an infrared remote control (2xAAA batteries, not incl.), a wall plug (5V, 2A), a manual (multilanguage), an HDMI cable and an USB-cable (male-male). For the latter I still could not find out the actual purpose, I guess for connecting external devices like HDDs. The included HDMI cable surprised me positively, since this is often not the case with other devices.
The unboxing in motion pictures:
I personally expect from a TV Box a fully featured media player, as well as the oppertunity to run small games and emulators. I do not own a smart tv, since its additonal functions are mostly already present in other devices (gaming consoles, HDMI sticks à la Chromecast, etc.). This box should be able to give a greater performance than a classical smart tv, like for example by the oppertunity to play old SNES games (more on that in the review video).
The box itself:
From the outside the box looks a bit similiar to the FireTV from Amazon. It is a rectangular, matt black box with rounded edges, while on the top side the letters of Minix are embedded. On the sides the connectors are placed including the infrared port. Also the external WiFi antenna can be found on the side. The housing looks valuable and nice after my opinion, kind of like the upper part is made from one cast part. The remote control is comparably slim and offers the following buttons: direction cross, OK, power, Vol+, Vol-, back, home, menu und settings.
For pictures check the blog post : http://klonom.com/minix-neo-x6-review-english/
First usage:
While booting the TV box shows a Minix boot animation. Afterwards you land in Stock Android 4.4.2 homescreen.
The first usage works flawlessly via the infrared remote control. The RC seems relatively strong, since the infrared port of the box does not require to be in direct visual line, the scattered signal seems to be enough. The box has installed many usefull apps for the media center usage out of the box, like for example AirDroid, XBMC, Netflix or Miracast. Also the Playstore is preinstalled. If a keyboard input is needed, an on-screen keyboard like you are used from normal Android pops up, which is controlled via the infrared remote control. Though this is ok for small inputs, for larger one this is quite annoying. For this purpose you can connect USB mouse and keyboard to the TV box. Android recognizes them without problems and you can comfortably surf from the couch. The two USB ports should be enough for the normal usage, although it still can be extended by using a hub.
Performance:
The Amlogic S805 SoC was unknown to me, why I could hardly predict the performance of the Minix Neo X6. To get a rough idea of it, I replaced the already installed version 4 of the Antutu benchmark with the newer version 5 and ran a benchmark test. The result were 17166 points. This means, that the box should be able to run the most of the average applications. While scrolling through the launcher no lags or similiar were noticable. Anyway, it happened a few times, that the system freezed after long usage and switching different apps. Here only a hard reboot by plugging out and in the wall plug helped. It seems the system has to be improved here a bit more.
Emulators:
Like already mentioned, one of the main application fields for an Android TV box are emulators for me personally. Although I already own a self built retro console which is based on a Raspberry Pi, it is not capable of running more hardware intensive consoles like the Playstation 1 or N64. But it would be great to play game classics on the TV, without connecting your Laptop or Desktop PC each time with the TV. This is the reason why I tried out PS1 (FPSE), N64 (SuperN64) and SNES (SNES 9x EX+). Because of legal reasons I have to emphasize, that downloading ROMs/ISOs is illegal and only self dumped games are valid. All three emulators worked smooth and without problems. Only the Playstation emulator freezed a couple of times for a few seconds, but I can not tell if this is an hardware issue, an emulator or a game issue. But this did not really influence the gameplay. As a controller I am using a bluetooth gamepad and I did not notice any connection problems. All in all the box fulfills my expectations to be useable as a small gaming stations for retro games.
Media-Center:
The box comes preinstalled with the Xbox Media Center (XBMC, nowerdays Kodi) in the “Minix Edition”. This skin looks nice and not too overloaded. I personally do not use the XBMC, so I can unfortunately not tell too much about. To at least test its functionality I transferred a 1080p video file into the library. The playback started immediately, without any lag. But after a few minutes, the video stopped randomly. It seems, the XBMC version is still a bit buggy. Anyhow, since XBMC save the last viewing point, I was able to resume from there.
Memory:
The box comes with 8GB of internal memory according to the product infos. But usable is just around 5.32GB, so definitely less. A “classical” division of phone memory and system memory like in Android phones does not exist. All availabe memory can be used for apps. The capacity obviously is not enough for a media center. The Minix Neo X6 officially supports MicroSD-cards up to 64GB, and external HDDs up to 2TB (MicroSD-card just tested with 32GB, external HDD not tested yet).
The Minix Neo X6 in Live-Pictures:
Summary:
Comparing to its price, the Minix Neo X6 offers good oppertunites. It is a small device which fits nicely beside a TV. It outruns a smart TV by performance and functionality, already simply because of having Android 4.4. Also the usage as a small gaming station is no problem. The WiFi receiption was constantly good during my test. But the device also has its downsides. The system seems partly immature, what can lead to system freezes from time to time. For example my SanDisk 32GB card was just recognized after a plugged it in for the third time. Hopefully Minix still improves it a bit. About “integrated” apps like the XBMC Minix Edition: There are enough stable alternatives in the Playstore. It also should be considered that the majority of Android apps a developed for touch, although a mouse is mostly a suitable replacement for it. Native Android games have to be remapped first, which is not for everybody. In general, I like the box for its price and its oppertunities.

good review, Available here in Australia, cheers
Good review, is this any good comparing with the tv stick ?

I am afraid I can not really answer this one, since I never tried an Android HDMI Stick. But I guess that these sticks are enough for streaming and web browsing, probably not for demanding games.

Great work!
Are there any plans to support non-rockchip devices?
I have installed handy smart launcher on a Motorola droid bionic which lives in a oem hd dock under my tv connected by HDMI. I installed the companion (remote) app on my Motorola RAZR hd. The devices communicate, but the only functions that work are scrolling thru the main tabs, search, and home button. Mouse and keyboard functions don't work, even after selecting Handy as default keyboard in language and input settings on the bionic.
I would love to see this work, would be a great replacement to my wireless mouse connected to the bionic dock.

Hello pistacios,
I am grateful to yor for sending us this extremely useful and well-documented infofmation on working process. In the nearest future we are going to optimise our apps for the use with not only rockchip tv-boxes. As for the use -You should install our Handy Smart TV Laucnher on Android TV-box and 2nd app Handy Smart TV on your phone or tablet. After that you will get devices ready to work. If you have TV box based on Rockchip processor - we would like to get your own test report.
Kind regards

mk808 finless rom
Hi,
I'm using an MK808 stick, very similar with the one in PPC_owner's post (but without "B" in MK808B).
As far as I know, it's a genuine RK3066, but with Finless ROM 2.1 JellyBean 4.2.2.
Handy smart tv / launcher does not even appear in Google Play on this device (!).
Copied manually and installed, the app does not work as expected (Galaxy Note 3 with 4.3, cannot control the stick with this app - behaviour is similar with the one described by PPC_owner on MK808B).
Any idea ?
Thank you,

Dead topic ?

[APP][Android 5.0+][SBS VR Browser] surf the web in VR! with NOMone VR Browser

Hello everyone ,
I want to share with you this new android VR browser : NOMone VR Browser

It is a side-by-side android browser that enables you to surf the normal internet pages/content while wearing vr glasses. You can use it also for online streaming, reading manga, watching your favorite videos as if your in a cinema! or even working anywhere without laptop/desktop (just your mobile, keyboard and mouse!).
For devices with Gyro sensor, you don't even need the keyboard and mouse. Just slightly move your head( like gaze based apps), put on your earphones and use its button for clicking/ dragging.
The browser is still undergoing heavy development (like making compatible VR keyboard in the next release isA, theater mode for 360 videos and other cools features ), but it's perfectly usable now.
Let me sum up the main current features:
=================================
Gyroscope based pointer. Move your head and use your earphones/handsfree/controller media button to click. You can perform continuous scrolling by dragging to the top/bottom of the screen. You can also use other configurations (like a USB keyboard/mouse using OTG cable, or a wireless keyboard and mouse combo, or bluetooth keyboard/mouse).
From the options menu, use the calibration settings to get the ideal configuration for your cardboard or VR glasses for optimum VR/3D experience.
Bookmarks. Before putting your phone into the cardboard, open all the links you need and add them to bookmarks. This way you won't have to remove it to type url. Do this until the VR keyboard is ready (in next release if Allah wills).
If you have a small screen, try decreasing the browser scale (in calibration settings) to show more content in the same area.
A basic ad pop up blocking is in place to give you less hassle while browsing.
If you have a bluetooth VR controller, use the mouse mode (press "Fn + D"). You can drag continuously by holding left click down and using the analogue stick.
Opening local video files (From the gallery/file manager. Android 5.0 & 5.1 only. will work on all 5.0+ in next release isA).
Keyboard shortcuts (ctrl+tab, ctrl+shift+tab, ctrl+t, ctrl+shift+t, ctrl+w, ctrl+r, esc).
Sign up for a Cloud 9 IDE account. Happy coding.
Install X11VNC and connect to your remote machine using NOVNC.
Install a local server, like Palapa Web-server and install your tools. Now, control everything from the browser.
Known Issues:
The normal soft-keyboard is not fit for VR browsing.
Can't use the gyroscope cursor to type.
Coming up next:
VR keyboard.
Theater mode (for 360 degree immersion and more video formats support).
Save/Load tabs from last times.
Most frequently visited launch screen.
Lens correction.
Mixed reality mode (have the browser in front of you, but see the camera feed when looking to the sides).
Kindly try the application and tell me what you think

Great! I'm glad it worked well for you
Since you are in Cairo too, may I ask what VR headset are you using? I've been trying to add support for DayDream and GearVR. but I don't nearly have enough cash It would be awesome to get some feedback from these devices owners.

for test purposes I'd suggest you to buy Google cardboard v2 (made with cardboard itself) costs just 2-3 $
another cheap and good enough cardboard

Thanks a lot for your reply . We're planning to do something similar and integrate the cardboard SDK first; as it is available in my country. On the other hand, I can't find any place that sells Daydream and buying it from outside Egypt almost doubles its price. The problem is that Daydream users seam to be the majority of my app users. That's why I'm more interested in testing it on daydream and getting feedback.

NOMone VR Browser version 0.8 is here!
In this update:
New:
====
- VR keyboard.https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nomone.vrbrowser&hl=en
- Look-around option (easily look at corners).
- Restrictions (we're really sorry) on free usage
Fixes:
======
- TONS of fullscreen video issues.
- Bookmarks not deletable on some devices.
- Android > 5.0 devices not able to view videos from storage.
- Gyroscope movement not smooth on low resolution devices.
This has taken quite a while, it was a tough release. Thanks a lot for your patience and support. Please help us decide what features to add next

yah sorry I cant purchase Nomone vr browser. I wont and cant support censorship. I beat my meat to porn and love it. I have been married for 5 yrs and my wife booty claps to porn to. In fact we watch porn together while I make that booty clap. She loves it! We dont give a crap what you and your company think about porn or us for that matter. You should care about making money on your hard work but you obviously dont. Do you and your religion care about anything? lol:silly::silly:

is the development of this still active?
I was going to recommend a feature for gestures on the remote keyboard/mouse app.
