Best place to buy Raspberry pi 4?
I want to install openelec and use it as Kodi player.

Guess PiShop.co.za might be a good place to start looking RS Components another.

Not sure but seeing that it is netflix certified and has a google play button on the remote it should be google certified.
Dstv now and showmax works on google certified devices.

Maybe someone that has bought one can give feedback or maybe one can even go into a store and request a demo - I have done it at makro before.
Also, this is more like a dongle than a full box - no usb / ethernet ports.

Saw an article where it was connected to a same manufacturer's PVR ... , as a satellite feed replacement.

Mi-Box is good, but would rather go for the Xiaomi 4K streaming stick at the moment.

The Fire TV 4K MAX if you are not wanting DSTV/Showmax on it

Google Chromecast with Google TV

Skyworth Leap S1 box, or Emantic, about all the locally available boxes, I would buy.
