Yes, but they still lack the power of a high end smartphone or tablet. That isn't much of a surprise at this moment in time but considering even a lot of higher end mobile devices struggle to properly play 1080p 10bit, I would be surprised if any of these are capable. Most, if not all, of these sticks are relying on hardware decoding for HD video. Considering 10bit isn't supported by 10bit, I think we can pretty much rule out these devices as being 10bit compatible.
I haven't looked to hard but I haven't seen anything that looks like it can play 10bit 1080p but I would love for someone to prove me wrong.

Considering my 1.2 GHz dual-core (unrooted) Evo 3D, which is no longer even close to "high end", can output 10-bit 1080p to my TV (using the HDMI adapter) without noticeable lagging or other problems, I can't agree. While many of these devices probably won't work well, many certainly will.

That thing would need to have a hell of a CPU because even my Nexus 7 can't play 1080 10bit without artifacting with its quad-core. My S3 can't play it flawlessly either which has a more powerful cpu then the Evo 3D. I know my S3's CPU is somewhat lacking compared to its global counterpart though.

Unless you are some kind of magician your evo 3d can't play 1080p 10-bit using s/w. However if you are using h/w or +h/w, then you are getting a lot of output errors that makes the video looks terrible.
@FlyinPenguin
you mean cpu, since there are no gpu that fully support 10-bit, else you would just get the same result as you already are getting. ;)

Yes, I meant CPU. My brain is slow today ;)
