The website doesn't have a mobile version, its the standard website which on Chrome is identical when choosing either desktop or mobile version. You have to zoom in and out or turn the phone to the side and view in landscape. Works on most other websites, unless i'm doing something wrong specific to Guru3d? I can't be the only person who has noticed this?
Hilbert it's long overdue for the forum to be updated to be mobile friendly. It simply looks awful on mobile devices...

You were talking about forums not the main website. That's however in the works, it, however, requires a deep reprogramming of the entire website and is not something easily done. It might be this year or the next before all that is finished.

Yo ri66 as I understand AMD do not have the licence to be able to play 4K blu ray content.
What player was you using to get around this.
it depend, WinDVD pro, and PowerDVD pro decode it fine for everyday use, apple TV for apple movies and a moded VLC for any the other case and when on linux.
but many other player can read 4k BR (also it depend of you BR drive lot of issues with my old LG, that should be compatible)

Regarding price: I bought the 2015 model in late 2015 as a replacement for my Open Hour Chameleon Android media center, which failed after 1 year (just outside warranty as well), so I've had about four and a half years of use out of my purchase. And it is still going strong with excellent support.
The Chameleon BTW cost me 160 Euros and the support on that thing sucked (the promised Android upgrades never materialized for instance even though they were promised). Before that I had a Boxee Box which cost me 219 Euros and which lasted me for about four years (and that was with a big community support effort after Boxee went under).
Most of the cheap Android boxes are already obsolete by the time you get them and aren't worth the money you put in their purchase. The Shield TV is the best purchase for this kind of device that I ever made. Maybe if Boxee hadn't gone down due to their misguided business model it would have rivaled the Shield TV, but that's justr speculation on my part.
