+ Powerful + Many features + High-spec PC gaming + HDR formats The latest Nvidia Shield Pro doesn’t do much new, but doesn't have to in order to remain the best streaming box and retro gaming machine out there. An Android-powered set-top-box / games console, it's about as powerful as streaming devices come, and is jam-packed with features that will tempt movie and video game fans alike. Whether you're after high-spec PC gaming streamed to your TV, or 4K movies in multiple HDR formats, it's got you covered. It does offer less value for money than previous models however, despite a spec bump. Read our full Nvidia Shield TV Pro review. •^ Back to the top

+ Fire TV OS + Processor upgrade + Dolby Vision Using Fire TV OS, a variation of Android, Amazon’s newest Fire TV Cube is, by far, our favorite Amazon streaming device – better in so many ways than the Amazon Fire TV Cube that was released in 2017. The processor upgrade and inclusion of Dolby Vision are great new additions and, in spite of a few shortcomings, help solidify the Cube's spot as one of the best streaming players to be released this year. The Fire TV Cube has always been rock-solid in terms of performance, but the latest version introduces a number of upgrades that make it even faster.

- Expensive - Lack of external I/O ports The Khadas Edge2 is as good as it gets in terms of performance in a small package. It is as big as a pack of cards and will handily outperform the new Raspberry Pi 5 in all benchmarks. Under the hood, the Edge 2 includes a real-time clock with battery, stereo microphone, plenty of IO ports, and three camera interfaces. The built-in fan whispers just a bit, even when drawing 10W under CPU stress. If the main reason to get the Edge 2 is a desktop-class CPU, its main drawbacks remain a high MSRP and small IO connectors to play with, unlike the fully fledge 2.54mm connector found on the Raspberry. What we liked in the Edge 2 was the OOWOW boot system, which simplifies the installation of various OS on the eMMC flash memory. The Edge 2 is an excellent alternative to a small desktop PC and will pay for itself with the electricity saved over an Intel CPU. Read our full Khadas Edge2 review. •^ Back to the top

- Empty List Featuring speedy video that stretches up to 60fps, the NEO U9-H 64-bit Media Hub for Android delivers smooth, responsive, and crystal-clear picture quality thanks to its 4K capabilities. Even better, the U9-H offers impressive picture performance thanks to full HDR10 support. Its HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology widens the color spectrum, displaying brighter whites and deeper blacks, accentuating the contrast to create a more natural, vibrant viewing experience. All of this is available in a package that costs less than $50 / £50 / AUD$80. •^ Back to the top

+ 4K Ultra HD + Netflix, Hulu, and PBS Kids + 60 FPS video + Bluetooth voice search Buying your first Android TV box? Then the Ematic Jetstream 4K Ultra HD TV Box could be the one for you. The Jetstream 4K Ultra HD Android TV Box with Voice Search Remote is, in our view, the perfect starting point to learn more about TV boxes. It provides access to more than 450,000 movies and TV shows across 4,500+ paid and free channels, including streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu, and PBS Kids.

+ Unique video recording function + Dual band WiFi + Smartphone as remote This well-connected Android TV box is equipped with 2.4GHz + 5GHz Dual Band WIFI, in addition to 10M/100M/1000M Ethernet Lan, which improves the problem of small wireless signal coverage by enabling signals to be received from all corners. It also packs Bluetooth 5.0 for fast data transmission to compatible devices. We’re fans of the A95X Max's unique video recording function, which lets you record videos to share with your family and friends when desired. And who needs a remote control? With this model you can use your smartphone as a remote to navigate recorded clips. •^ Back to the top
