Mad Catz MOJO Micro Console for Android (Video Game)

Customer Review

The "Mad Catz Mojo" is now my fourth Android box, but my first gaming Box! The previous speakers were pure Android TV boxes and there is already a significant difference (not least in the performance) if you buy a "Android TV Box", which incidentally still dominated gaming or gaming box like the Mojo that indeed was made for this!

One thing first: If the price of the well-crafted controller you (about 60 euros) subtracting from the total price of the box, you get about 140 euros a super affordable box, is processed in the technically finest hardware, most notably the Tegra 4 processor, which currently as the "Porsche" of mobile graphics chips applies. This price is still below one of the current best "China firecrackers", the newly arrived on the market and "only" with a Mali 450 graphics chip is fitted, but with Android Kitkat (4.4) comes along that in Mojo still pending.

Besides gaming, the box has of course many more great applications: XBMC, Media Streaming from various media centers, Youtube, etc ... - even word processing and other office Anwendunugen are possible! Very much I love the Nvidia Tegra software store that is pre-installed on the Mojo. Here you have a very good overview of which are supported with the Tegra 4 Games!

Nevertheless - and even if you make extensive use of the Mojo rooten needs, which by the way done with a laptop or PC within 5-10 minutes and is easy - one has the Mojo a really great and open gaming box that actually barely leaves to be desired, and thanks to the great controller and mouse-controlled games like "World of Goo" or "Angry Birds" makes! So far, I regret the purchase in any way and can not understand the negative reviews and reviews. Because of the tasks to be even Rootens and older Android version a point deduction, this will still be changed in the future with Kitkat 4.4, full marks there !!!

02:07. UPDATE: As of yesterday, there is finally the new firmware version with which the OUYA - installs App: This means they will OUYA games on the Mojo available, with full support Controller! Even the control within the OUYA app has been adapted to the Mojo Controller - Real mature performance. Now the box has finally earned the name "Gaming Console". Rooting is now, according to Mad Catz no longer necessary, it will be out of the box detected significantly more games and programs in the Google Play Store! It remains to be done in Kitkat and the box is perfect the update! Another note: you should have plugged in with no keyboard Ouya games as possible, otherwise the left Thunbstick the controller does not work, a problem that already existed on the Ouya!

08/01/2015 - UPDATE:
Since Ouya has not survived the New Year and you by the company no longer hear (except that a buyer is searched), you can now do without the Ouya Store. Unfortunately, it is so, that Mad Catz has failed miserably so that Mojo continue using software to supported: The long-promised Android 4.4 Update Kitakt will no longer appear. But for that to have resourceful programmers (XDA Developers thanks be) that said they managed to bring Cyanogen MOD 12 with Android 5.0.1 LOLLIPOP on the console. How to do this can be found on the Internet, as the update. With me now runs on the Android Mojo 5 (Android TV) and up to Google Movies, on which I can do without, since I use eh Amazon Prime and the Fire TV goes far everything around. Sound, WIFI, USB port, everything is working fine and the Mojo now replaced with the new image absolutely improved representation of Android 5 my desktop PC that I only use for a few tasks. As Miini PC the mojo therefore still beats with the new software perfectly, my buy recommendation for those who are willing to flash MOJO! Also KODI (formerly XBMC) now running at last without crashing!
