Thanks... got the A2. You were right; very responsive, as good as the Amazon voice BT remote I was using. But, with added benefit of full keyboard on back.

But it's IR instead of Bluetooth?

For those that can test flash an Android TV Pie image from THIS (click) thread.
Cannot quite remember but I may have had issue during initial setup with Android when using a 4K HDMI connected display. Had to use a 1080p one.
Was fine after I played around in Android TV > Display settings.

I plan on flashing this build when I get my device. Seems to be the go to version of Android TV.
Do you have any limitations as far as apps go? I understand that Netflix won't support HD

Android Netflix will not even be available in the Google PlayStore on uncertified Android devices.
The Android Kodi Leia ATV Netflix Addon is not working for me either with the above linked ATV ROM. Works fine with CoreELEC.

I doubt any video streaming Apps that require any sort of Widevine L1 DRM or Microsoft Playready will work at all, if they do streaming will be SD only.
I do have my local subscription IPTV - Kayo sports App streaming in high quality 1080p h264
I don't think it uses DRM.
YouTube is 4K (HDR).

Google have changed their stance on 3rd party Android ROM's for usage with the Play Store - all you have to do now is register your uncertified device with them and the Play Store works normally:

What I am impressed with is the snappiness of the above linked ATV Pie ROM, it's based on the LineageOS Android distribution (click).

What’s the easiest way to do this as I read somewhere CoreElec uses a non compatible boot method?

I have been holding off but that convinced me to get one and a 16GB eMMC to go with it.
