TV Box Android 11 X96 Max Plus Ultra Amlogic S905X4 4GB 64GB 2.4G 5G Dual WiFi BT4.0 Support AV1 H.265 8K HDR Media Player

I use machine to watch YouTube and GB news and listen the UK radio. I live in Egypt during winter months so this machine isy lifeline. It's good for playing back movies on a HDD mostly MKV,s and others. It does not work on AVI format, most of old movies are AVI but I have another old box where this format works. So would recommend this device but it only android 11 maybe try android 15 in 2026. The manufacturer is excellent.

best box i have ever seen, 8k and well priced

NOTE: This review has been updated after contact with the seller. I originally gave it two stars and have changed it to four. Two stars: The box comes with Android 11. KODI reports it as a S905X4 chipset (as advertised). That's good as that chipset comes with hardware to decode AV1 encoded content. I'm not, however, sure this box is worth the added price tag over some of the cheaper ones. It will play 4K HDR content, but I've tried it on AV1 encoded content and it runs at seconds per frame, rather than frames per second. The software doesn't appear to be making use of the hardware of the S905X4. Apart from this it seems like a decent media box... but the extra cost over cheaper boxes is wasted unless it actually delivers on that extra - like playing hardware accelerated AV1. Four stars: The seller contacted me to say they had passed by comment about AV1 onto the manufacturer. Hopefully they will provide a software update. Also note: This box has a 64bit ARM chip in it, which is running Android 11 in 32 bit mode. At least according to CPU-Z. The seller offered to send a remote keypad in addition to passing along my comments about the AV1 support. So their customer support and responsiveness is good. My original comment remains valid. You can get much cheaper boxes that will play 4k HDR content based on older chipsets. So if that's your requirement, then you'd be better off with one of those. If you need to playback AV1 encoded content, then until this box is updated it's not a good choice. However, this is a decent media player. It's responsive and has Android 11. So it's really down to what you need as user. Hopefully there will be updates to allow the AV1 decoding hardware in the device to actually be used.

After about 15 minutes of use setting it up it gave up completely.

It works really good

This was bought as a gift for my dad who wanted more than 1-5 channels in his summer house. This absolutely did the trick, great playback capability and great value for money. Really easy to use and has a superb picture quality.

This TV box has reshaped my entertainment experience. Its user-friendly interface and swift response have made streaming and browsing a delight. The variety of apps and content available at my fingertips has broadened my viewing choices significantly. It's like having a mini cinema in my living room, with a vast array of shows and movies just a click away. The smooth streaming and clear visuals have made movie nights more enjoyable. This device has become a central part of my leisure time, offering endless entertainment possibilities.

I ordered this item on 22/06/2023 if I remember correctly, and all of a sudden stopped working. I believe is the power supply but not sure. Contacted the seller and he sent me another power supply and is working fine

Funziona bene ed è molto semplice da utilizzare. E' molto versatile in quanto collegabile a molti altri apparecchi come Hard Disk esterni, schede di memoria, amplificatori audio (anche con cavo ottico) e vecchie TV dotate di porta 'analogica'; in caso di necessità si possono collegare tastiera e mouse (alle porte USB) rendendolo ancora più facile da utilizzare. Ha risposto al 100% alle mie esigenze.

Me ha gustado todo.Buen aparato.

Très bon produit en remplacement de ma minim8s Pas sûr que le man soit en 1g mais c’est pas grave, aucun soucis de lecture

La mala valoración no es para el producto sino para los vendedores. La tv box es correcta. La cuestión es que el alimentador que viene es del tipo inglés, totalmente incompatible con el estándar europeo, y después de buscar un adaptador europeo, funciona sin problemas. Pero los vendedores no lo especifican, así que te toca devolverlo o buscar un cargador compatible. En mi caso hice lo segundo.

Bonjour, Je suis très déçus car les Films 3D be sont pas reconnus par ma TV 3D qui n’a aucun problème pour les détecter en direct. Le câble HDMI est un câble 8K. Alimentation non compatible avec les prises Européennes.
