Hmmm... Did Amconics reduce the price for G4?

MiniX Neo G4 from Amconics Technology

SGD 140.00 Special gifts : Wireless mouse, 4 port USB hub.

Not sure if it come with the cloud iptv player app.

Forget about Amconics and just get online at about half the price. And do they think we are so stupid as to believe that the original price was $299 (hence the "savings" of $159)!

Can resell your keys? Haha


If sell den I cannot use le. Although can download to multiple android system, but the same account can be online on 1 player only. Meaning if you use, den I GG liao. If I use, den you GG liao. Go buy la. If you bought from them in the first place, maybe can get cheaper price than the stated $69.

The previous version of the program super buggy. Now okay le. They provided the latest version on their webbie. Bought a 32gb SD card to stream with it. Shiok.

The product and cloud tv is good, but dunno why minix distributorship went to them. Hopefully their service will improve ba. Afterall, they replied my emails. LOL.. Finger's crossed.

You paid $69 for the cloud IPTV? :s22:

No la. $220 for everything :

1 year warranty (claim to have 1 year 1-to-1 exchange, some1 help prove this?)
G4 (DUH...)
Cloud player (their so-called program, but power, true story)
orange F10 airmouse (best accessory market price worth $60 I think)
free wireless mouse (abit useless)
4 port usb hub (2nd best accessory, cheap cheap one)

Total $220. Without the airmouse,$220 -$60 = $160. Wireless mouse $5? lol. That's $155. Minus the $5 usb hub = $150.

Website $140 (should be without program I guess, website nv state have).

That's $10 I paid for the program if calculate like that.

Conclusion : Bundles always save $$$$$$...

Btw, I going down Courts Megatex tml morning to buy ROG8580, any1 buying also? Can bargain tgt for discount or more free gifts. LOL

At first, it was $229 AFAIK.. then $199 for PC show.. now $140? You can really see how much they make. Time they woke up from their fxxking idea and treating consumers like idiots with their ridiculous prices.. :D

the pitiful thing is, there are still tons of such customers around.

i even suan their staff about this. deliberately asking "so how much is the online price?" lol

Hi, guys who have the X5, do u face the same issues that were discussed in other forums and over at the MiniX facebook?


Neo X5 Android 4.1.1 Jellybean firmware and some issues below:

1) The box device works very slower than ICS firmware.
2) The font size is too small on big screen TV.
3) Flash is not enable hwdecode
4) when play around apps about 20mins, it freeze a short time, you couldn't control the mouse pointer.
5) Issues with mac address of wifi/ethernet/BT changing after boot/disable with new JB firmware
6) Certain apps will not load because the google play store is set as being in the Republic of China.
7) Does the MiniX X5 comes with the full Google Android Play Store instead of the restricted store that some other IPTV devices come with?
8) YouTube and Netflix video playback do not run in full screen due to the presence of the bottom menu bar and the vertical black bars on either side of the video.
9) No fullscreen button with the new version 4.2.16 Android Youtube app
10) Is it possible to hide the status bar?
11) The brightness is set too high in Neo x5
12) Are your X5 Preloaded Jellybean the same one as 4.1.1+1080p Jellybean BETA firmware released by Minix on Nov 29?

WAH !! So many post now. 3 weeks since I post only :s13::s13:

@nats7798, yeah their cloud iptv free trial can stream. But around 10mins or so you'll have to stop and stream again. Quite troublesome :s13::s13: But then, still worth it to try :s13::s13:

@ SX1man, try using ICS instead of jellybean. Might solve some problems I guess.

6) & 7) How to change Country in Google Play? | Android Troubleshooting

8) A few video apps are made in that way. Don't think can maximize the screen size due to status bar cant be hidden. UNLESS YOU ROOT IT.

[Q] How to HIDE Status bar in Android tablet - xda-developers

ROOT = jailbreak like iphone. FYI.

Its the same concept as Youtube. If the movie speed < streaming speed, you experience buffering AKA jerky playback. In youtube, the pink red bar is the buffered memory. The timing MUST be before this pink red bar to get smooth speed.

Once the entire movie have been buffered (full pink red bar = fully downloaded into temp files), it'll be like watching the movie off your harddisk instead through online. Hence the smooth playback.

Higher resolution or higher size movies requires a higher bandwidth speed to buffer.

eg. 10GB movie requires faster buffering speed then a 500mb movie.

Remedy : Once the movie starts to load, press PAUSE, and let it buffer. Some players/machines will buffer the entire 10GB if enuff space, some will only buffer up to its max capacity.

Or

Port Forwarding. Super troublesome, but efficient especially for Singtel users and some players.

:s12::s12::s12: MERRY CHRISTMASSSSSSSSSSSSS :s12::s12::s12:

Hi bros,

how is tis compared to Asiabox?

Are there live TV channels?

I am not an android user so I am not sure if this is a good product for me. I am more keen on TVB shows and live TV channels to watch Discovery and soccer. Please advise.

Thank you.

I have asiabox and an open source vod box.

Thanks.
