NOTICE: This is an unofficial list of Android devices that are and aren't working with the current development builds of XBMC. The final stable release of XBMC for Android might have different compatibility, so do not use this list as a guide for buying Android hardware. |

Basic requirements
It is highly recommended for users to not make any hardware purchases in anticipation of running Kodi on Android without first researching the device you want to buy. Before you do buy, make sure multiple people have verified that it works! If in doubt, do not buy any hardware! |
- Kodi v17 and later requires Android 5.0 or higher.
- x86 (Intel) or a NEON-compatible ARM-processor, (for example: Nvidia Tegra 3 and newer are fully supported by Kodi, while Tegra 2 and older are not).
- The main aim for the Android port of Kodi is to foremost target media-players/set-top-boxes/sticks that connect to a large screen television and uses a standard remote control as its main interface device, (that is the same market as for HTPC).
- If your device is listed as not working try a non-neon (Tegra 2) unofficial build. These are not supported by Team XBMC:
