[@KillaMC305]

This was a good box back then. but its super slow and buffers alot and if you install any apk forget about it. you will be frustrated. a recommended box would be more ram and rom and supports 5.0ghz

Chigz Tech Reviewsl

[@34Dollars]

Chigz min don't play also I had uninstall kodi 18 which got to me please advise.. That kodi wouldn't play sky or anything

[@Psilocybe3]

This is a really helpful review many thanks to the Channel owner you've got my thumbs up.

[@ChigzTech]

Thanks for watching 😎👍

[@MasaRu404]

do you have a video tutorial on how to set this up? i had mine on abd tried to set up kodi. but cant get live channels and movies that have easy interface

[@williambonds7787]

Hi, I bought this exact box MXQ pro 4k and have had problems with it going off and rebooting while watch movies. sometimes it will go off 3 to 4 times which makes it hard to finish a movie. I have searched youtube but found no answer. any ideas thanks.

[@ChigzTech]

When the box does that it usually means the CPU is overheating and causing the system to shutdown. 2 things to test, blow a fan at the box whilst tilting the box on its side and then watch your movie as normal. If it still switches off then do a full system factory reset.

[@williambonds7787]

Ok i'll try that.... thanks for the reply.

[@JohnQuilyQuinlan]

if you open it, its only 4 screws you can replace the heatsink very easily, google it, solved my overheating problem

[@ryandavid739]

Thank you, man. I'm definitely going to buy it.

[@ChigzTech]

Your welcome, stay tuned to my channel for the latest TV box reviews.

[@yasinshaikh9254]

I bought three of them. One for every level of the house. It’s honestly game changing that stuff like this exists.

[@darrenc9405]

Will I have to pay to carry on watching kodi after one year. Someone told me after one year you have to pay to watch kodi so basically cones with one year subscription to kodi

[@patrickmurphy1803]

Don't! they don't work believe me,a waste of money maybe work for a short time eventually they go belly up very quickly I've bought every style size price and all the same,work well for a little while and I mean days then bang buffering all the time or no connection or no streams available, as for live sport forget it

[@vladis2710]

Hi, i want buy it but I have question, I have all channel ? Bein sport, canal?

[@danz5607]

Hi CHIGZ. Love the reviews! I find them some of the best for android boxes. I would like to know your opinion what android box can you suggest that will support 128gb sd card (for int. storage), and 4TB HDD (ext. storage), has at least android 6.0, 4K, and at least 2GB ram, for under $100 or less? I have a minix neo u1 already but its not reading anything cards or sticks under settings>storage, so im looking for a 2nd box for a separate tv that is abit cheaper but still meets the above criteria. What can you suggest?

[@dougdunning3437]

For Kodie, where do I find the build: Titan?

[@brandzsantos4670]

Can it smoothly play h265 1080p mkv via USB?

[@anmolsrivastava1298]

Hey do your next video by screen recording it.

[@SuperMoheet]

Thanks for the video. I just ordered this box. Quick question does it have airplay support for iOS 10 iPhone/iPad?

[@ChigzTech]

Hi the Airplay does not work on iOS 10 devices. It does work on iOS 9 devices. I found a work around - kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2aaamxvlsh8eq8

[@funsoogunlade3236]

Good morning Chigz. Please can you send me a link to mxq firmware upgrade to android 5.1

[@connordean120]

i saw you had root browser does the box come rooted? and if not how do you root it? Also it the Mxq or Tx5 better?

[@ChigzTech]

Comes rooted

[@comstox]

Question: HOW did you get your player to avoid the COUNTLESS ads that keep popping up?

[@orenong]

are there ads in the steamer!??!?!

[@fixzine235]

@@orenong have pi-hole installed on your home network. Search on YT for instructions.

[@pgupta101]

Great review ! How is 1GB RAM performance? do you need to clear it frequently?

[@ChigzTech]

1GB ram performs reasonably ok. You are retricted to 1 task at a time or it will lag. Yes, you will find yourself clearing the ram quite often.

[@TwelveK]

Chigz Tech Reviews Is there anyway to add more RAM?

[@shailenlshrestha]

@@ChigzTech when I clean ram it goes down to 25 to 30% {not below that}. And system lags when ram goes up to 40 to 50% . Ram hardly goes up beyond 50% . Any cure for this issue?

[@5-Consecutive-Hairpin-Turns]

The old android is nostalgic

[@ChigzTech]

So true

[@alessandrovetro5151]

Sky and Netflix is gratis??

[@johnboon5330]

No entender spanish

[@brianndwiga9585]

I have a question. Does it require bundles to download all that? Or does the box has its own internet installed?

[@helenareihill4250]

Hi there I accidently turned off the the shortcut on the main page the one to be able to go back page or home page. Can you tell me how to get it back please???? It's not in the display menu like the old boxes had...

[@robertlupano4415]

Hi, great review. Thanks. Can you use a SD card or USB drive to add ram and make it function better?

[@ChigzTech]

No the RAM is not upgradeable, you can only add more storage via uSB and microSD.

[@shailenlshrestha]

@@ChigzTech ...And we can transfer all apps to flash drive to ake box more lighter? Please suggest how to do this?

[@marvsat322]

hi great review. I'm interested in your live TV guide. I noticed youve got FOX FOOTY HD and Fox Sports 1,2 i think these are australian channels. I really want them. can you tell me what add on/live tv guide you used? Is it current? Hope you can help.cheers marv

[@AbdulrahmanAlbinali]

Hey, absolutely a good review! Does it need a subscription? And how? What channels does it have? BEIN SPORTS, OSN, etc...

[@ChigzTech]

Hi, you just buy the box and download the apps, you will find all the tutorials in my videos sections, i have arranged it in playlists so you can find what you need easier. All free, all channels. :)

[@pieterstrydom1662]

Hi there thanx for all ur Intel I want to know if I could load showmax on it and witch one would be compatible for this device. Thank you

[@yppat]

Hi, I have this box and when I turn it on it gets stuck on the MBOX logo. I tried the tooth pick method in the AV input but it still stays on the logo. I can feel the rocker inside the AV input but it does nothing. Is there something I could do on the board to get this working?

[@ReLOVEution2012]

so this streams live TV also?

[@HVRGAMINGYouTube]

Bro from how many days you are using please telll.

[@lilnash7]

I never knew you can use a wireless mouse on this box. Will it a wireless mouse work on the MXQ pro standard box? And can you pause you do a video on how to get sky live channels. I have mobdro for most sky channels but the streaming is never HD quality.

[@ChigzTech]

Hi, I have a wireless keyboard and mouse attached and it works great. It should work the same on the mxq pro standard.

[@lilnash7]

Alright man thanks for the quick reply.

[@ChigzTech]

[@walfBabylon]

is work with LG smart TV or not ?????

[@ChigzTech]

Yes it will work with LG Smart TV. In fact this will work with ANY TV with an HDMI, including non-smart TVs.

[@fightermma]

I was thinking of buying a Chromecast but noticed a friend had this MXQ box. What's more better to get,Chromecast or a MXQ box? Thanks in advance.

[@ChigzTech]

A TV box is better as it will let you do so much more than just mirror your screen. You can download and watch movies, play games and lots more.

[@ON-qe5fj]

Hi, is this Android 5.1 or 6.0? They seem to be selling both under Mxq Pro. I'd like to know which android version is your box?

[@ChigzTech]

My box is Android 5.1.

[@paulrogers3637]

I don't want to see how well it plays movies you have recorded elsewhere, I want to see what movies it can play from the web. And does it not have a save or pause function? Thanks.

[@ChigzTech]

I would recommend looking at some of my newer videos for TV boxes for the latest features. This one is quite old now.

Hi very nice review good to get a UK perspective can I just confirm it came with kodi ready to run but you installed a different version ? and im assuming you bought it from some ebay Chinese seller I really fancy this box after your review especially with apple mirroring

[@ChigzTech]

Hi, it came with kodi as standard I installed a different build. Yes I bought this from ebay. AirPlay is really good.

[@ipaddy]

Chigz Tech Reviews hi chigz thanks for the quick reply

[@ChigzTech]

[@shahriaromi715]

what is the highest youtube resolution??

[@ChigzTech]

Hi, the box can handle 4K and 1080p videos on youtube and they steam very well. Also plays 4K movies through Kodi.

[@ChigzTech]

Hi, yes your right, to see the 4K in its full glory, you will need a 4K TV.

[@prraattiik]

Question: Can you select the quality of KZbin videos?

[@ChigzTech]

1080/4k depending on your display.

[@ChigzTech]

Yes.

[@charlestabun1340]

1tb hard disk Can read this tv box us usb port????

[@ChigzTech]

Yes it can.

[@DanielStawczyk]

How come this box is half a price comparing to Minix NEO having almost the same technical specification? Is there a chance you would do the video on comparing these two?

[@ChigzTech]

Minix Neo U1 is a more powerful device with a stronger dual band wifi. It has double the storage and double the ram.

[@TheRealKarmaquarius]

how good this is with emulators, also an xbox 360 control pad (wired) would work with the emulators?

[@ChigzTech]

There are a lot of newer and better boxes out now that you should consider. Go for a TV box with a minimum of 2GB RAM and you will be happy. 1GB ram boxes are quite laggy in gaming and have the older GPUS.

[@feztube]

Hi, great review! Do you know if Skype/Hangout work with a USB webcam connected to the MXQ Pro 4K? I'm considering this box to video chat from my living room. Thank you.

[@ChigzTech]

Hi, I just tested it out and it works perfect. Attached a logitech webcam and installed Skype on the MXQ. Works great.

[@feztube]

Awesome! Thanks for the quick reply!

[@aliqatwork]

Does it let you play videos in resolutions over 720p? I saw in another review video of an older version of this device that didn't support resolution over 720p for most apps.

[@ChigzTech]

You can play 1080p resolution video on all apps and 4K video movies from USB HDD or streaming from kodi.

[@nragheeb]

I have a question... Does it already have all of that already in it when I buy it?

[@ChigzTech]

No, I installed all my fav apps. You will get the standard apps you get on most android phones/tablets. You can download and install any app you like.

do have a preference between this and jail broken amazon fire stick

[@ChigzTech]

Firestick is not practical for me, no USB ports so you cannot attach a drive to watch your own video/movie collection. Firestick is purely a video streaming tool. However, when you buy an android TV box you get a complete PC experience, you can work with office applications, attach keyboard, mouse, usb Drives, watch movies offline from USB. Stream online whatever you like. Play some games. Firestick comes in 2 flavours the cheaper one is totally rubbish has only 1GB ram and supports only 1080p resolution. The more expensive Firestick has 2GB and supports 4K but is it not worth the price. As for $70-80 dollars you can get one of the best Octacore TV boxes available right now. Meanwhile, if you do choose a TV box, make sue you go with something with minimum 2GB RAM. This is an interesting topic you have bought up, I will make a video on it soon.

You can't do that, it would be nice, but the big icons are fixed and not customisable, you can only change the small icons at the bottom. You could always change the entire home screen if you wanted a fresh look.
