Picture quality, fantastic build quality, plays things other players can't, loads of networking options, fantastic connectivity, can take a 3.5-inch hard drive for media storage
Quite expensive, have to provide your own internal storage, online services still not that compelling

Abstract: Popcorn Hour has come up with a new media box. It's more advanced in many respects than last year's flagship Popcorn Hour C-300 , but at £269.99 costs significantly less. And as it lacks the ability to pack-in an optical drive, it's a good deal smaller t...

Abstract: Apart from the chassis and cooling, the Popcorn Hour A-400 has undergone two major internal upgrades from its predecessor, the Popcorn Hour A-300 . First is its new video decoding brain, a dual-core 800MHz chip from Sigma Designs which promises faster loa...
Compatibilité multimédia, Support de la 3D, Interface jukebox toujours plaisante, Possibilité de piloter l'appareil depuis une tablette ou un smartphone via une application gratuite
Système de rack pour disque dur mal pensé
Popcorn Hour perd-t-il de sa superbe ? Ce nouveau boîtier ne fait qu'apporter de la 3D et une puce plus à l'aise dans la mise à l'échelle des vidéos de simple définition. L'interface n'évolue que peu et il aura fallu attendre plusieurs mises à jour pour e...
