Choosing an Android digital signage player
Android is the leading operating system worldwide for digital signage. It provides a mature, reliable platform and has the widest range of hardware devices to choose from.
But with so much choice it can be hard to find the right device. Here’s our pick of top media players and displays that we’ve used with AbleSign.
