We can make a list of devices that work properly with 720p or 1080p video.
I have a AK802 (MK802)
Allwinner A10 Cortex A8 Chipset
Frequency 1.5GHz Processor
1GB DDR3 RAM.
and can not see HD videos.
But with other players, such as MXPlayer, videos are played perfect.

See
Android hardware (wiki). Eventually I'll update it into a nice table where people can note things like HD playback, but till then you can just note it in plain text.
Other players have hardware decoding because they've signed NDAs or are using closed source code, which are not options for XBMC.

I don't like how users are relating external players as HD playback......wouldn't need to note xbmc in that case. It is a great feature to allocate protocols and other attributes but I don't like the idea of calling those devices HD supportive for XBMC when its the external player taking the buff as Ned explained - it will be a huge list with asterisk on them.

Well, we wouldn't let people say "HD playback" with external players on the wiki list. For one, I don't think the official XBMC for Android build has that feature, and it would be just kind of assumed that almost any Android device would be "HD able" via an external player as long as any HD player exists for it.

I own a Lenovo A2109A running ICS; it has a 1.2 Ghz Tegra 3, 1 GB DDR 3, and ULP GeForce GPU. The latest RC1 build installed without any errors and runs very smooth.

I forgot to mention this, but I'm trying out a new formatting template on
Android hardware (wiki) to hopefully make entry easier and to note if something plays HD. I'm not sure about the layout. You can see it in action on the set top box section. The idea is to tell people if HD will work with software decoding or not in the event hardware decoding is not available (which is currently the norm for most devices). It's a little confusing the way it is now, so if anyone has any ideas about how it should be displayed, please fire away and give your input in this thread.

Works great with the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 so far, the stylus that it came with does not work though. I'm gonna need a bigger SD card.
