We strongly suggest going with a quality brand when it comes to Android TV boxes for Kodi, Streaming Apps or Cord-Cutting.
With the number of quality products from reliable brands available, buying some obscure TV box from a “preloaded box seller” would definitely be a big mistake.
We don’t take recommending hardware devices lightly. The devices below are all very reliable, high performing and support the latest functionality.
Each of these devices also support Kodi, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other streaming apps. Installing any of these apps, and others, can be done without needing a computer.
#1 NVIDIA Shield TV
If you want the best of the best, and don’t have any budgetary 
restrictions, this is the Android TV device for you. It’s the real deal, and Kodi can be installed at the click of a button, literally. Remote control features voice search.

#5 MINIX Neo U9-H
Another good option, this device was actually designed with Kodi
