Customer Review

I bought a powerful player:

HiMedia Q5quad 3D FullHD & 4K Media Player Android 4.4 Smart TV Box
; Redirect = true & ref_ = oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00
Super device!

- Unfortunately leaves Prime Instant Video at no playback.
Since the device is significantly better than the average Android phone, I can only guess that the restriction Amazon wanted is set to compel customers to purchase the company's own "Amazon Fire TV". As I let myself reluctant necessary, I'll swing out to another Video on Demand service.
Just as marketing strategists can learn that winning open systems at the end.
