* s905 does GigE
* Odroid C2 (s905) is capable of overclocking
* Odroid C2 has pretty mature LibreELEC implementation.
* HDR isn't a huge aspect of buying decisions given there is not a lot of HDR source material at present.

But, what's the position of Khadas Vim in relation to Odroid?
I ask this, because khadas is cheaper, and already comes with 2gb/16gb, and has a promising ability of dual booting several OS. At the moment é there is Android Nougat/Ubuntu in emmc while Libreelec in sdcard. The disadvantage from what I was aware is that development in Khadas is in very low speed. I think Libreville version in one from January this year, for example. Of course there's no auto update libreelec like in Odroid, but I always ask myself it it is just a matter of time...
Khadas is accessible in Gearbest, while Odroid for my country, Portugal, must come from sites where I'm sure i will have to pay taxes, and that means months retained in customs...
At the moment, I'm playing around with a Beelink GT1 that's not mine, just for Android TV, while I try to decide which box should I buy for me.
I have to admit, that for LE I know that Wetek Play 2, Minix U1 or Odroid are very good, but I'm not convinced about the price. If these last are only for LE, than a Khadas Vim is a very good cheaper alternative, and just a little more expensive than Mecool M8S Pro+. And khadas has at least the chance of having Android and LE future development! I think...

So in conclusion, I'm undecided between Wetek play 2, Khadas, Odroid C2 and Mecool M8S Pro+.
For khadas I couldn't understand if we can install Libreelec on its emmc?

I already bought a Minix Neo A2 remote.
In my case I also need Android box for my kids play games like Asphalt, that are very GPU demanding, hence my undecision about all this.
