    Default New to the openbox scene.

    Hi my cousin recently bought an open box s9 and I was interested in the fact that he had every channel, I've done some research and I'm down to a choice of Openbox X3 or Skybox M3. I personally am thinking about getting a skybox but I would like your opinions as well on the matter.

    I think the X3 is a stupid design, the USB port is on the front under a flap, makes it look daft when the USB port is in use... The M3 is a smaller dinky little box with external power supply.. Functionallity of both would be pretty much the same I presume..

    Stick with s10 lots of support, better remote control, also the channel lists are better!
    Also every time there is a firmware update you will have to rename catagories!

    I've decided to get an open box S11 HD because my cousin said the skybox is too small and it has no built in fan so it would overheat.

    None of them have fans. At the end of the day they're all basically the same box.

    there isn't going to be any new s10 firmware because of all the new models coming out.So if you don't like something about it you are stuck.

    What can they put in a newer firmware that you can possibly need, it already works as it should.
