I can't check until tomorrow but I'm 75% sure that's in the Mk1 range....

It's not even close - the MK1 is the better performer.

I was surprised how bad the newer screens were, in the Android BV's.

The choice of apps from the Google Play store is not comprehensive, so an external box is likely. In which case the MK1 makes even more sense.

Hi all. I'm a Mk1 owner. The Mk1 does not auto-wake when powering up a connected HDMI source.

 

Just wondering, does the NG power up automatically in this case?

Don't believe so

I had the BV14, and that behavior wasn't possible - and it was the same engine as the Avant NG

Not from sleep but it can be set to detect video on hdmi and switch accordingly. I have this set up for one device only - my PS4 pro.

It means that to toggle gaming I only have to grab my gaming remote and press the PlayStation button to turn it on, as it turns on the tv notices the hdmi feed and switches from whatever source I’m watching. Extremely pleasant and therefore no need at all to reach for the BeoRemote when gaming.
