Any news on any updates for this, seems to be taking a back seat in most circumstances.
Unable to use openElec as its so dated and can't even use alternatives.

Still on 4.4.2 which is fine but noticed with all the addons and kodi recently being updated its loading the CPU more and more.

This is a great box guys.. please dont neglect it, especially when people have paid very good money for it.

Hello @Cloin
Last update for T8-S was released in April 2016 which updated T8-S Android side from Android Kitkat to Lollipop but OpenELEC was still running on Kodi 15.2 and currently there is no (newer) update available for T8-S, if there will any future update for T8-S then DBX will definitely inform its customers.

Am I right to understand that the above message says that there is a lollypop android version for the T8-S. I only asked a month or so ago and was told not so. Thanks

There's has not been any update to lolipop on the T8-S. There was some testing going on, but there was some issues...so I believe.
Not sure why Shah mentioned it, might have been thinking about the test firmware.

So more or less the T8-S obsolete if it can't be updated. My box is only a year old, not good. The Mini and T8-S+ Already on lollipop, why is it so difficult to upgrade the T8-S

Obsolete definitely not the case. Plenty of alternatives that don't require Kodi 16 or Android 5 still around.

Shah incorrect about the T8-S, will edit the post.

Updates are worked on by our team, where possible we release them via OTA for the relevant model. Development hasn't stopped. If a beta passes testing, it will be official. Until that point, difficult to have any concrete ETAs.
