    Nokia Streaming Box 8000 Review (Android TV 10)

    Posted: 07 Dec 2020 02:36 PM PST

    Been testing this device over the last few days. It has the same CPU/GPU as the new Chromecast with Google tv.

     

    Video showing unboxing, home-screen and FAQ

     

    Audio & video

    Display resolution: 4K Ultra HD Video resolution: 4Kx2K@60fps, 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 576p, 576i, 480p, 480i  

    Audio decoding: Dolby Digital Plus  

     

    System & Memory

    Operating system: Android 10

    Chipset: Amlogic S905X3

    CPU: Quad-Core Cortex-A55

    GPU: ARM Mali-G31 MP2

    SDRAM: DDR3: 2 GB

    Flash: eMMC: 8 GB

     

    Where this device excels is the fact that we get onboard Ethernet (100mb), USB 3.0 type A port and also Type-C USB (can only be used for charging). So if you do want to expand the storage or used wired ethernet, you don't need to buy any OTG cable / USB Hub (like we need to on the new Chromecast Google TV

     

     

    Ethernet Speed test (my ISP max is ~340mb)

     

    Chromecast with Type-C Ethernet Hub Nokia 8000
    Test 1 280mb 94mb
    Test 2 305mb 92mb
    Test 3 310mb 95mb

     

    5Ghz Speed test

     

    Chromecast Nokia 8000
    Test 1 302mb 311mb
    Test 2 328mb 330mb
    Test 3 331mb 303mb

     

    Pros

    • Snappy Android TV 10 Interface
    • Dedicated Ethernet port
    • USB 3.0 Type A port
    • Feature rich backlit remote with dedicated Play / Fwd / Rwd buttons as well as Youtube / Netflix / Google Play & Prime
    • 4K 60fps video playback was smooth (Youtube / USB drive)

     

    Cons

    • Type C USB port can only be used for charging (I tried various powered / unpowered USB hubs but nothing registered
    • No Gigabit ethernet
    • Cost about $120, so would be great to see a faster processor than what we get in the $50 Chromecast Google TV
    • HDR permanently on

    Two questions

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 07:55 AM PST

    1. I downloaded Mullvad VPN through the Downloader app. Installed it and it's working. However, it is not showing up on the app list. So to open the app, I had to install it again through Installer. Why isn't it showing up on the app list?

    2. I'm live in Europe, is there a way to download HBO max to the TV? (Preferably so that it updates to the latest updates automatically if it's possible)

    Trying to use a sideloaded app, it appears misaligned and off-screen. Anyway to fix this?

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 07:41 AM PST

    Just got an android tv today, I'm trying out sideloaded apps and such. I loaded the PlayStation App onto my TV and it appears to be confused on where to display it. Half the screen becomes black with the left side becoming distorted and stretched. Im sure this is because this app wasn't meant for a TV, but are there any remedies for something like this? I figured I would ask before I give up.

    How to get apple music on android tv?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2020 03:32 PM PST

    Any video player apps supporting MKV hDR playback on Sony X900H?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2020 09:44 PM PST

    I've tried a few apps to play HDR content, but none of them seems to be switching the TV into HDR mode.

    Does anyone know if there are any video players that will support this?

    What launchers do you guys recommend?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2020 03:40 PM PST

    So I have an Android TV box now, but it comes with a mediocre Chinese launcher. What apps would you guys recommend to replace it? I've heard the official launcher isn't good anymore, and I feel like setting up something custom with Nova would just take way too long. Are there any particularly good ones that are available on the Play Store or whatever?

    cant cast to androidTv when its connected through an ethernet cable

    Posted: 07 Dec 2020 01:12 PM PST

    Hello, I have the Xiaomi Mi 4S, which is of course an androidTV. When it is connected to my router via wifi I can cast everything to it with my phone or PC. However when I connect my TV to the router directly via an ethernet cable, its unable to be casted to. It still has proper internet connection, just via the cable now of course. But it does not pop up in the list of devices to cast to when i want to cast with my phone or pc. Also I did check whether the tv and my phone and pc are connected to the same network, which they are. So does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

    Stopping Netflix/Prime Videos from changing my picture setting.

    Posted: 07 Dec 2020 10:37 AM PST

    I recently got a Xiaomi Mi TV 4S with Android TV, I have an issue where Netflix automatically changes the Picture settings to a Preset one , named HDR, and everytime I play a movie/video, I have to manually switch the setting to custom. Is there a way I can avoid this?

    Is there anyway to use the mobile version of Hulu on AndroidTV?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2020 11:25 AM PST

    I'm asking because I'm unable to log onto Hulu on my TV because I don't have more room for zip codes to add and the Android version doesn't require you to be in a certain zip code.
