Pretty nice unit, just wish they had Lollypop instead of kitkat but otherwise looks impressive, would love to see user review.

The orders that already came in have already been shipped. Meaning anyone who ordered so far should be getting them soon. We should see user reviews for the box shortly. :cool:

Phewwwwwwww, thank you. Because I have a lot of expectation on this box and really have waited long time for it to come out and really I don't want to be disappointment.

Looking forward to put my hand on this great device.

Glad to hear your excitement for the product. I haven't had the opportunity to play with it yet, but I've only heard good things so far. Really excited to hear what people think of it.

david_avov, can I assume that all pre-ordered boxes were the first ones out the door?

Yes of course, the very first shipment contained all the pre-orders and the very very early orders of the Vixo 2. You guys will be receiving the product before anyone else.

We are shipping straight from our manufacturer for the first set of orders until we get our main shipment into the HQ.

Up and running. Here are some quick thoughts:

The setup of the Avov 2 is identical to the Avov 1 box. Cabling is easy, but be sure to connect the HDMI cable to the "out" port. There are 2 HDMI "in" ports on the Avov 2. The power supply is different from the Avov 1, so if you've got a Avov 1 box you can't just unplug and plug into the Avov 2. The remote requires 2 AAA batteries and is improved from the Avov 1. The game controller needs 2 AA batteries.

I immediately loaded the TVOnline and iLive apps to watch IPTV. My initial reaction is that IPTV picture quality is about the same as it is on the Avov 1 box, a 720p look. Since some channels look better than others, I agree with others on this site that IPTV picture quality is as dependent on network and picture encoding factors as it is box related. I will be doing some side-by-side testing of the Avov 1 and 2 to be more certain.

I watched some VOD movie samples on the TVOnline app and did notice a pretty good sound improvement. I'm guessing that the Avov 2 box has a better digital sound processor than the 1. I'm running both boxes through the same Yamaha AV receiver, so that's why I believe Avov improved their box. The VOD picture quality is excellent (1080 for sure).

Please consider that these are thoughts after a very short time with the Avov 2, but I did want to give you all some feedback. Also understand that I have a 1.5Mbps DSL Internet connection. Those of you with better connections may see different results.

I'll post more as I get more testing done.

Just loaded Kodi and fumbled my way around, since I have limited experience with it. However, I was able to load some video and music addons. Listened to some great jazz and blues. Tried watching some PBS videos from This Old House, but I don't have enough bandwidth to play it in HD. I did find some SD video on PopcornTV and it buffered a bit but worked.

So fellas, in my very inexperienced opinion, I'd say Kodi works.

Thank you Falcon05 I will not ask you anything else, you have accomplished your mission. Can't wait to test it myself but at this point I know I got a good deal.
Great job.

Mine will be delivered tomorrow but I am on the road and will not be back until the end of the month. Really waiting impatiently for more reviews. I am surprised that with the fast shipping more people are not talking about this great box. :p
