I've got the Homatics Box Q 4k and a Dongle Q 4k and they are awesome. "Q" means android 10 BTW. The R version has more Ram and storage, supporting 4K AV1 decoding.
The company behind Homatics is Sei Robotics, a Chinese company who makes the TIVO Box for the US. They also produce the Nokia Streaming Box 8000..
This could finally be a no compromise alternative to the shield pro. Every other box always seems to lack one feature
This looks good. What is it missing?
on their website it shows a Homatics game controller? Anyone know if this is real, it looks nice.
I would love to get ahold of that baby.......... Nice specs..........
Will this be available in aliexpress?
Best I can tell from the photos, it looks like the 'Box R 4K' model has a micro sd slot, while the Plus version does not?
Price?
Are they sold out already?
What's the price?
The specs make this product appealing but does this brand provide regular software updates? I hadn't even heard of Homatics until I saw this post. If this is a European brand, ordering their products and shipping them to other parts of the world might not be convenient or reasonably priced. It would be nice if the device's bootloader could be unlocked to allow for root access.
OP, would you buy a used sheild pro now, or wait to see how much this is when it comes out? Wondering about av1.
Any news when it will be available?
Does this have Upscaling like the Shield Pro?

It's quite expensive, 199000 krw all that money goes not to hardware, but certifications left and right.. yes, you read it right dts hd is supported according to that korea naver link, one can bet TrueHD passthrough is supported too.
If priced right, RIP Nvidia Shield tubie, you won't be missed.
Does anyone know when will it go on sale? Or an approximate cost?
Switch all the way. No place for noname junk
Do you know that this will support TrueHD pass-trough?
There is already a preorder available on their site for 150 euros. Is it worth ordering or is it better to wait until it is available? https://www.homatics.com/products/box-r-4k-plus?variant=43212469731564
Ordered this guy from their website. I'll let you all know how it is when it eventually shows up.
Received shipping notification. Yun Express from China. So I'd expect it'll be 10-15 days before it arrives.
This is basically an ad. Are ads allowed?
Nice. USB-C & wired Ethernet. Curious to see the pricing & upgrade scheme.
