Could be server issues or ISP.
Currently I am using Dreamlink for myself and others with no issues.

For generic android boxes, my most stable was the old MiiBox 3. It got 2 major AndroidTV update, and just worked. OK, you were at the mercy of 3rd party apps, like STBEmu, Perfect Player, OTTnavigator, Tivimate, etc.. for IPTV usage.

I had all sorts of cheap generic android boxes, like Abox, Nexbox, mxq, beelink, and honestly, some were better than others, but always had frustrations, and don't even expect an update You get what you get typically.

For boxes built primarily for IPTV, I like my BuzzTV boxes. Their IPTV app (BuzzTV2 and BuzzTV4) sets them apart from others in my opinion. I started with an old Buzz XPL3100 and since then I have an xrs4500,Essentials E1, Buzz stick ST4000, etc..

There is no such thing as a PERFECT box. New boxes will always have growing pains, and older boxes will show their age Having said that, I have to say that what I like about buzz, is that they do act pretty quickly on reported issues.

But for freezing, like cableguy mentioned above, it could be ISP or server issues. I know I have 1 service right now, which was great for many months, and in the last month or 2, it freezes regularly, and many evenings, completely unwatchable. I switch to another service and it is solid with no freezing.

The Android Version makes no difference. I don't understand the craze for everyone looking to get the latest. As long as it is Android 6 or above, you should be fine. I don't know many program that "require" anything more recent that Android 6. This is not a phone, they are purpose specific devices.

The key factor is to be able to get something stable. Having Android 10, but being unstable and having all sorts of issues with various apps which API has not been updated and having a useless box until devs start to migrate t one APIs is completely useless in my opinion.

Also, getting a recent version of Android on a cheap unsupported box is really NOT what you want, since these cheap boxes never get any updates. So any bugs you'll find, you will have to live with them. Name brand boxes often have OTA updates to correct major issues. An in cases like my Miii Box 3, started live with AndroidTV 6, then jumped to Android 8 (skipping 7), and late last year, it surprisingly receive Android 9. For a box that is nearly 5 years old, it was a pleasant surprise. This is not too say they had no issues.. They actually halted the AndroidTV 8 rollout for w while when people expereinced all sorts of regression. But they tool the time to fix them before continuing.

There is a difference however between regular Android (most boxes) and AndroidTV (MiiBox and Shields typically).

If device support is ANY consideration, the Buzztv line is the hands-down winner.Dreamlinks are pretty good units, but the support is lame.

[Putski]

You cant go wrong with a Buzz box, they have great support...
and the price is fair.
good luck on your adventure!

Buzz boxes hands down, the best out there bang for your buck. Support, quality and price.

buzz or an nvidia shield... are very good.

[spike52]

My choice is Nvidia Shield, good support and easy to add storage.

Yup.. And with the added support for 2.5" internal hdd, along with 2 x USB 3.0, 1 x USB 2.0 and 1 x USB Type C ports, it will not lack storage options. And with the S922X CPU, 4GB DDR4 RAM, and 128GB integrated storage it will be sweet.
