1080p playback, surfing and usual apps. no high end games.

Pi is incredibly more versatile t han the other two, but if all that the MK802 offers are all that YOU WILL EVER need, go for it.

mk 802 i like because it has 1gb ram and 1 ghz processor better than the pi. is mk 802 is reliable? Also the pi is reliable?

For your need MK812 was enough. Raspberry pi can't run Android anyways. (except some super modded exception)
