    Good Device but not great for Kodi. I purchased the device for 50$ and the functionality is good. Although the device is good, the remote doesnt work properly. Most of the functions doesnt work with the remote. Also i had difficulty in side loading kodi on this. If you want to use this device for regular apps, this device is good and if you are fine in using the remote from phone app. Amazon Fire Stick is better compared to this device

    This is such a great product compared to the Amazon Fire Tv. It's an android player and it will do everything your phone is capable of doing . Just really upset that Google discontinued the nexus player

    Great Product, it works perfectly for what I want to do. I love that I can cast my screens and I love how I can download apps. I know they still have work to do on it and it will only get better in the future.

    When I bought this unit, I was hoping to stream videos/apps from my family's smartphones; and tablets. however, I could not find good app for streaming from Android Phone. It is even more difficult to stream from my iPad. I end up returning this unit and get an AppleTV instead.

    The Nexus Media player streams media well and is very versatile. The only issue I can think of is no Amazon Instant Video support.

    I can use my hard drive (requires a special cable - cheap on ebay) and was able to watch the movies I had on it. I can send it apps from google play just like my phone. Awesome media player.
