Any personal recommendations for media streaming devices?

I'm currently using WD TV Live, but I have been running into issues with it over the past year, so I am looking at replacing my devices with something else. It's been suggested to go with a Kodi solution, so I have been researching those.

Aside from the reviews on sites like Amazon, or "comparative" websites, I don't have anything else to go on.

Does anyone have any real-world personal experience (good or bad) with any of these devices?

Some of the ones I have been looking at:

- element ti5 android tv box s905
- NextD TV Android Box
- Pigflytech MX3-plus
- Matricom Android G-Box Q2
- NVIDIA SHIELD - 4K

I do not feel like building my own, I just want something which allows me to stream from my own media server, Netflix and Amazon (although Amazon is not a requirement).

And stability. I don't want to need to keep flashing the firmware, or power cycling the device half a dozen times to get it running.

Let me know what you'll think.

Thanks

Joe
