Good review. I suspected the 2 units were fairly typical fare although the upgraded Android is a plus as long as the 6166 has the processing power to run Android 5.
I also had to send one of my Avin 2s back to Tommy after it refused to connect to wi-fi. Worked great for about 3 months then stopped. He took care of it pretty quickly I must admit and the second unit is still going great since (~2 years now) tethered to phones as the wi-fi hotspot.
I think all of these android units are buggy, under powered, and in general if you are into an OEM experience will be a let down. I enjoyed my Avin and would love to have another android ecosystem (I was actually leaning Eonon until very recently) but I am going to go NBT and be done with it.
The thing the Eonon really has going for it... it's only $300. I spent ~$600 on the Avin with all the acoutremont after a $100 discount for doing a full installation guide. I felt then it was probably a bit overpriced. And then the 6166 came out and I felt it was even more overpriced.
