I'm new to XBMC/KODI, I read lot of threads, quite confused on which box to buy
I'm willing to spend up to Max 300 USD, I want to use only KODI,
which box is best for Kodi and preferably future proof in that price range

You mentioned that you read a lot of threads, but did you read the sticky at the top titled "Pick the Right Kodi Box (UPDATED FEB 2015)"?
Which such a vague explanation of your needs, start there.

Yes, I read that, Chromeboxes doesn't give remote i guess, next i liked is Fire TV, I used that but with some heavy skins or TR Community Builds, it's crashing very often, all others are needed some work. I'm not comfortable in assembling or flashing kind of stuff
After reading some threads, i also got confused which box is good linux or android
I couldn't able to get much from that thread

You mentioned that you already used (I assume have) a Fire TV, jump to the Android section of this forum and find out why it is crashing. The reason may also affect other systems if it is caused by something like an addon.

And if you are waiting then the Nvidia Shield is another option. They today have said they will be adding lossless HD audio passthrough and are working to fix 23.976 playback. If they never get that fixed, however, its back to Chromeboxes.
