just bought mine on 4/1, yet to arrive.
from taobao, usd107+17EMS express freight. after 16% mc cashback on shopback, just under sg150 shipped within 1 week.

EDIT* aliexpress not taobao -> search "unblock". the seller with high ratings (many from SG) @107usd.

update: paid monday, received on friday. i paid usd7 more for EMS express freight.

feedback: am glad my TV is no longer a black screen. BUT, i still miss maige. UB is for those who want plug and play. quality is only 480/720p and not smooth. If you have the time to explore, I'm sure other android boxes can be more rewarding.

Awaiting maige mark II or equivalent...

You can find a more powerful android box for sure but all the subs stream the same quality.

Tvb free on air channels are easily found free. Even the paid channels and hk cable channels could be watched for free if you know the tricks

After checking out the YouTube videos for the ubox, it makes more sense to get that than any iptv subscription

Thanks. Could you check how much space is left after installing the default apps from the UB market? If I get one, thought of installing kodi as well

Just ordered one thru shopback with the 16% mc discount. I never used shopback before.. but I did make sure I used the desktop browser and login to alixpress from there.. so will it show the amount I saved once my payment from alixpress goes thru?

Also, did they ship a 3 pin power adapter by default?
