good job nice review on the box

[@thelunatyk7968]

Is there any way to get rid of the New York, query at the top of the screen?

[@adamful]

Hi Mr Baz, thanks for the nice review. Can this play .mkv movies from a 1Tb external hard drive with .srt subtitles? Thank you

[@mikemackenzie9255]

The ads are popping up in the middle of the screen, taking up 1/3 of the screen. I downloaded Adaway but it doesn't stop them

looking for decent box just for kodi got m8 for now but buffer buffer does the software get updated on this box or is it like the rest of the Chinese boxes no updates , this is looking good so far cool review but do you recommend ?

[@aldoceltic]

Does this work with older TVs? I have the Nexbox A95X & Nexbox admited its not compatible with older Sony Bravia or Phillips TVs. The screen flashes green, the system update to force RGB didn't fix the issue. Now looking into this T95Z.

[@mgtjones3712]

thanks for the reply

[@mariorepas9100]

Nice review...do you know if theres any way to change the layout that it comes with and just make it look like stock android?

[@z3ro7o]

Best box for its price at the moment?

[@davidnoble1058]

Would it benefit from a mini keyboard, and which one would you recommend.

[@Lupi33z]

how does the youtube app go? I installed KODI on a PC and found the youtube app to be unreliable as youtube kept changing it making it uncompatible with Kodi. I dont have these issues with youtube on my android phone though.

[@PeterMacPL]

Could someone with this box check does it work on HDMI - DVI cable connection ?

[@dennisjohnston7967]

How does kodi run on it? Does it have external usb drive compatability for storing kodi library?

[@DarenHammett]

Just purchased LG 55 inch ultra 4k tv and also an mxq 4k tv box. The problem i have is that after installing the devices and operating them together the tv box sort of freezes,(goes crazy) and if i change tv source and go back to hdmi tv box it does not recognize it. I complained and the dealer replaced the android box 3 times but i am still have the same prob.

[@mikemackenzie9255]

How do you get the annoying pop up ads to stop on the T95Z?

[@nezartaki5805]

Hello, are you using just the remote control cuz it seems respond very fast

[@thierrytinca9348]

Does anyone knows how to cast youtube app from iphone to the Box ? Please help me !

[@MrCruzstyle]

In your opinion what is the best Kodi box? speed wise I guess, the fire stick is nice and cheap but lags or jitters just a bit. I want something smooth as butter without building another HTPC
