The Dune HD Homatics Box R 4K Plus combines a Netflix-certified Android TV streamer with Dune HD’s advanced local-media software. Its hardware includes 4GB RAM, 32GB storage, Wi-Fi 6, Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.0 and support for Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.

It is aimed at enthusiasts who want mainstream streaming services alongside NAS, ISO and high-bitrate local-media playback. That flexibility comes with a higher price and more complexity than a mainstream stick.

APP FLEXIBILITY

Sideloading support

APK sideloading supported

Android TV supports consumer APK installation from outside Google Play when installs from the chosen source are allowed.

ViewHarbour definition: “APK sideloading” means a normal user can install Android APK packages from outside the device’s main app store. Developer-only test modes are listed separately.
