		I was looking into TV boxes too! Android ones are okay, but some cheaper ones lag or stop getting updates.  
 
Go for Xiaomi if your budget is tight. It gives good experience without going over the top. It supports modern video formats like HDR10+. You can stream both movies/shows and also light gaming on it which makes it a great choice. 
 
Also, if you are a fan of Apple products and use a lot of them, you can go for the Apple TV 4k because it integrates well - AirPlay or HomeKit features. It also has long-term support and reliable brand systems. It has a more TV sound but is more expensive than the Xiaomi TV box. Both are good, but I am using a Xiaomi TV box because that's what I was able to afford.
