Hi lads, i'm really interested in buying a Android TV Box but i dont know exactly which brand or model is the best!? Can anyone please advise me on which to go for? I would pay around €150 and would like one that could run XBMC smoothly in 1080p. Thanks in advance

I don't have broadband at home & my TV (Sony KDL-40W4500) has HMDI / USB ports.

I'm wondering if any of the available Android TV boxes can work via data tethering (wifi hot spot) from my smartphone??

I'm looking for a device to run XMBC. I only want it to stream stuff, Whats the best recommendation? I've looked at the M8 Android box but have seen mixed reviews, anything that connects well with the wifi is good.
