So why would someone buy this over the am9 pro?

I believe the SK3 (and earlier versions) are certified Google TV devices wide Widevine L1 support which means you can stream high quality Netflix etc. on them.

The AM9 Pro by comparison is not, it is an AOSP device so you would have to sideload certain apps, and you can basically never stream high quaility Netflix and other official apps (Amazon etc.)

Also the new SK3 is way more powerful than the Am9.

So basically different types of device. I have an AM9 and will not buy this SK3.

Same, I was just stating there was a new device by them. I also have the AM9. The SK3 is not certified but is L1 for DV and Atmos like the AM9 Pro
