In which way are Amazon getting more strict? I have 4k max and 4k stick working as they should be with side loaded apps VPN etc

If your wanting a stick take a look at the GaigaBlue Dcoclour GD1.

If you want a box look into the Q8 android box good spec for the money.

A lot to be said for a clean android only interface without all that bloated crap amazon put on there.

That projectivy launcher looks pretty decent for a clean look.

@moshibeth ,looking at the gigablue

Connections & Connectivity

1x Type-C

1x HDMI 2.1

1x DC 5V/1A USB-C Power Connector

- Dual WiFi (2.4/5G)

- Bluetooth 5.0

i,e, 1x Type-C cannot see from images but do you think that is actuall usb type c port not for power connection but perhaps to attach other usb say flash drive with adaptor ?

I have ordered one from w o s should be with me early next week urie. I really like the spec on them. Fed up with the crap on amazon but the simpleness of the remote takes some beating.

Both are imo as a cheap option.

They should be ok for some time, Amazon are at an idea stage for changes and they probably won't happen

Wasn't really bothered too much about price

Think people mean with the new os that supposed to be coming out that there getting more strict but that will be for newer devices in near future

The stick does look pretty decent be better option than firesticks and be good competition.

Specs do look decent maybe a worth while investment going forward

I'll have a look tonight mate.

But i suspect once you refresh your provider what you have changed will be over written so its probably i provider thing.

Cherry TV is very usable but more basic than Tivimate etc.
