Matricom G-Box MX2 Roku Killer?



New Matricom G-Box MX2 - Fast Streamer


Does Roku need to worry about the G-Box MX2?

They may need to worry about the New G-Box Q Quad Core!


Matricom's dual core streamer the Android and XBMC based G-Box MX2, is going full stream ahead after Roku's market share. It sports a dual core processor and is built to higher quality standards to outperform any Roku currently on the market. For a relatively new device, it has completely swept aside all of Roku and Apple's competitors and is selling very well on Amazon. With sales just behind Roku and Apple TV, this streamer could be the next big thing in media streaming.






This is what Matricom had to say about their new G-Box Midnight MX2:


"We're building devices intended to be around for a while. The hardware in our new MX2 is far more powerful than anything released by Roku and Apple TV which allows this device to have a longer life-span by improving through software updates over time.

We've built this device on the Android operating system giving it lots of great features and to keep the device user-friendly by providing an experience that is already familiar to millions of Android users world-wide.





This box is not only powerful, it's extendable and has ports to add external memory, hard drives, attach input devices and so on. We believe that this type of device should be open and customizable to the user's preference. There's no need to 'jailbreak' the MX2, it's already completely open and ready to be used for virtually anything."

It's simple user friendly interface has caught on and the fact that it uses the excellent XBMC media player software is hard to overlook. To make XBMC your default launcher and boot directly to it, install latest firmware currently (1.3). After it's all setup and you get the launcher selection popup, choose XBMC and click always. Now it will launch directly into XBMC.
