Yes it is called a PC. I keep on telling people all these android boxes are pants. For £50 last year I was buying i5 6000 or 7000 series intel machines with 16GB of ram and 1TB SSD. Now you could mess around with this and install an Android Project ISO or create a bootable ISO variant or just run Bluestacks and you will not find an android tv box anywhere competes

Google TV Box should be OK, I've got a Thomson 270 4K box which is similar but they have currently lost their European distributor.
What's wrong with Chinese boxes? don't lump them all together I'm sure you can check reviews for good ones.

Unless you are very careful where you buy and even then you are not safe or decompile the rom and the bios on the device you have no way of knowing if there is malware on them and a hell of a lot of them do have malware
Reviews mean nothing most of them would not have a clue if you were distributed computing behind it
