START HERE - Pick the Right Kodi Box (updated Dec 2020)
Hello, I am considering replacing my current android tv box.

I think that the ideal replacement would be an android tv box fulfilling the following criteria:

A specific requirement: Correct playback of 1080p h264 Hi10P... Hi10P support seems very rare (non-existent?) among android tv boxes.
- 4K support
- auto frame-rate switching
- HDR
- (video) format support pretty much the best possible
- good audio support

In short I'm pretty much looking for the best, top-of-the-line, android tv box. I've seen that the MINIX U9-H is very popular and seems to be a quite good tv box, maybe it's a potential choice for me, maybe there are other alternatives to consider. However, it seems like the MINIX U9-H can't handle 1080p h264 Hi10P which is something of a deal-breaker for me.

I'm wondering if there's any opinions on these powerful Rockchip RK3399 android tv boxes that have started to appear, for example RKM MK39, X99, R99. How well would they match the requirements?

Also I'm thinking of if it would be good to wait some period of time until later this year, if some new tv boxes are released that are better than the current ones.

What are your thoughts and opinions?
Thanks for the help!
