    I bought this specifically for YouTube TV. The LG C9 app video quality is bad and the xbox app isn't much better neither, but this blows the picture quality out of those by far and this also supports dobly atmos.

    Amazing Android TV solution! I originally had the Fire TV but it was not able to do everything that I wanted such as loading large files for movies. This device can handle almost anything!

    It does what it's supposed to. Displays in Dolby Vision and supports lossless audio. Plays most of the streaming services with just a few hitches and missing components. Pricey but worth the upgrade over the regular version.

    A knowledgeable friend recommended this to replace our firestick and although it took a day or so to adjust to the format, It's improved our picture quality tremendously

    This plays all the current media files. We are able get a Dolby Atmos 7.1 channel output thru the HDMI. Also play media encoded in h265 high efficiency codecs. But support is weak. Remote is not that easy to use. The huge Netflix button gets in the way. Wish there was an audio only HDMI output.

    Although pricey, you get what you pay for. Very powerful and gig eithernet connection make it well worth the price for the best streaming box around. Remote control is very easy to use and navigate.

    It is easy to setup,and is very sleek. Just need to determine if it truly is a need for the home. I do like the fact that performance/video quality was quite nice. Its a great product for those who don't have other streaming devices (Chromecast, Roku e.t.c).It isn't cheap though.
