Every year, 11.11 is the busiest time for Digital Mastermind. This isn't just about a sister-in-law buying a big TV but not being satisfied with its system. She plans to start using a TV box on 11.11. However, faced with a wide variety of online TV boxes, she spent a long time choosing, and finally came to help from Xiao 8.
Open Jingdong, Xiao 8 found five hot TV boxes. As the saying goes, buying things without buying expensive ones only buys the right ones. The sister-in-law chooses TV boxes, not only looking at the configuration but also combining practical use. So Xiao 8 simply bought all five TV boxes and conducted a horizontal review to help the sisters find the most suitable one.
The participating devices are Hengping TV external device pack, Ichiyi TV fruit, Mi Box 3S, Glory Box, Skyworth Penguin Aurora Box, and Haimei Di H7. Strictly speaking, these are smart hardware rather than traditional boxes. Their purpose is to enrich TV content.
Through an in-depth understanding of the family's needs, Xiao 8 determined seven directions for evaluation: appearance, performance, system, film and television resources, features, prices, and screen-casting experience, totaling 50 details.
Appearance: It's hard to say, but it's small and portable. Haimei Di H7 is one of the largest among the four generations. Its size is 158.8mm*104.7mm*23.6mm, similar to a conventional router. Plus, the antenna looks like a router. In fact, it can also send dual-band WiFi, acting as a router. The body is made of metal with a bright cut edge design, giving a solid feel.
In terms of interfaces, the Haimei Di H7 has a rich set of ports, including a power interface, HDMI interface, component interfaces, fiber input interface, USB ports, and a TF card slot. The rich interfaces and heavy weight indicate that Haimei Di H7 IV is specifically designed for a TV box, and portability is not its focus.
The Millet Box 3S is smaller, measuring 101mm * 101mm * 19.5mm, which makes it more portable. It uses plastic material with a rounded pebble-like shape and a matte texture. It includes a power interface, USB2.0 interface, HDMI2.0a interface, and AV interface (3.5mm composite audio and video output), making the interface relatively small.
The Skyworth Penguin Aurora Box is 98mm*98mm*20mm, which takes up less space. Its straightforward design makes it look smaller than the Millet Box 3S. The body has a matte texture, and a classic penguin logo is located in the middle. In terms of interfaces, the Skyworth Penguin Aurora Box has an additional Ethernet interface compared to the Millet Box 3S.
The Glory Box is the smallest of the five devices, with a glossy finish. The 85mm x 85mm x 15.5mm body is small, but its weight is close to the Millet Box 3S. In terms of interfaces, it has an additional TF card expansion slot compared to the Skyworth Penguin Aurora Box.
The above four devices have their own positioning and design, and their portability is basically not in the design goal, so they are mainly used in the living room or bedroom. Therefore, their appearance has little effect on the purchase. After all, it looks good and then the exquisite box. After inserting a few lines, it doesn't show how good it looks. However, because of its small size, even if it is a portable device, Iqiyi TV is not the same.
Iqiyi TV is the size of Oreo cookies and weighs only 24g. Even if it is stuffed in the pocket, it will not feel cumbersome. Body material is plastic, positive and negative texture matte, logo text and side highlights. In terms of interfaces, Iqiyi TV has only two micro-interfaces, one for power supply and the other for converting to HDMI for video output.
Sisters and sisters are either lazy or lazy, so if you only look at the appearance of the router, the Haimei Di H7 will be excluded first. The Glory Box's paint design and the idiosyncratic TV show of the idiosyncratic arts are even more in the sisters' eyes. On the whole, Iqiyi TV has an advantage in appearance and portability. The body weight of 24g is less than one-tenth of the mobile phone's weight. Besides being at home, it can easily be taken in the bag and ready for use, making its use scene not only at home.
Performance: Choosing TV boxes not only look at the CPU. Selecting a TV box is not the same as selecting a mobile phone. The performance of the mobile phone is more of a fancy processor. In contrast, the television box has a single service function and generally has low performance.
If you care about the fluency of TV and the output of video bit rate, the processor and memory size can pay attention; if you like to watch local videos, the storage space of the box is more important; if you are more concerned about the fluency of high-definition online video, Wi-Fi support is more important.
The following chart can clearly see the strengths and weaknesses of the 5 boxes in this area:
On the processor side, the performance is excellent is the Haimei Di H7 four generations, its equipped with Amlogic S912 + 2GB memory, has a 64-bit eight-core ARM CortexTM A53 CPU, the highest frequency up to 2.0GHz, GPU ARM Mali-T820MP3 GPU 750MHz, Support HDR10bit 4K@60fps video hardware decoding, add point-to-point display, H.265 supports up to 10-bit hard decoding and AVS + format playback, support HDMI2.0a, support for CVBS, integrated high-performance, low-power features.
The use of Amlogic S905X and Amlogic S905 in Millet Box 3S and Penguin Aurora Boxes is slightly inferior in terms of performance. When security Bunny runs, S905 is about 38000, and S912 is able to reach 41000. The difference between the two is mainly in power consumption and GPU aspects.
In terms of airframe storage, the Sea Meidi H7 four-generation 16GB space dominates the world. Glory Box allows users to expand capacity by adding slots, supporting up to 64G expansion.
However, the other three are also reserved USB interface, direct read U disk. Iqiyi TV is rather special and depends mainly on the content of the internet in the mobile phone. The comparison of memory does not make much sense to it.
In addition to the output resolution resolution TV support 4K, but in addition to a special fever, watching TV 1080P is already fully HD enough.
In terms of network connection, dual-band Wi-Fi is supported except for the glory box. If there are many networked devices at home, dual-band Wi-Fi can effectively help you avoid network congestion and achieve smooth viewing.
However, like the Glory Box, the Penguin Aurora and the Sea Music H7 four generations have integrated cable interface. In addition, Haimei Di also directly integrates SPDIF digital optical fiber. Blessed are the external power amplifiers.
On the whole, although many of the functions of the sister-in-law are not available, the performance of the four generations of the Haimei Di H7 is in a rolling state. If you value performance more, you may consider it.
System: It's good to look at the key. Like mobile phones, TVs also have their own UI interface and architecture. Unlike mobile phones, TVs do not have touch screens. They must hold a remote control when they want to operate. Although they come to the era of smart TVs, they still have decades of remote control. Can not throw away.
Therefore, it is necessary that the system is sufficiently clear in terms of architecture, and at the same time it is sufficiently convenient in operation. Here we test from several dimensions: UI, system, Wi-Fi connection, and search operation.
First look at each UI interface:
The system layout of the TV box is roughly the same. All the resources are integrated on the desktop. For example, the Glory Box, the Millet Box 3S and the Penguin Aurora Box all use the content on the desktop to switch between left and right; the four generations of Haimei Di H7 have similar layouts. Google's first-level menu, classification content needs to be clicked to see.
Because TV needs to rely on mobile phones, the interface is more special. The mobile TV application App page is directly projected on the TV through the television. The content is arranged more compactly. What's more important is the advantage of the mobile phone screen. An interface can present all the content in a complete manner.
System version:
Because of the remote control, the TV system has a short input. When entering a Wi-Fi password or searching for a film source, the remote controller and the Jiugongge input method have inconsistent conflicts.
Then, how about the remote control capabilities of the five television boxes? We designed three operations: Wi-Fi password connection, resource search, and voice search.
Wi-Fi password connection:
Only the Iqiyi TV because of the advantages of mobile phones, the operation is more flexible, we only need to operate like a mobile phone to connect Wi-Fi, so this Iqiyi TV wins.
Resource Search:
Watching TV can't be avoided. Although all TVs provide a simple search function, they are not simple.
Voice search:
Presumably, TV box manufacturers have also considered the above problem, so the voice search mode was added to the remote control. Thanks to the maturity of the technology, the voice search accuracy is also good.
Features: Advanced TV Box Advanced Guide.
In fact, there are many other places we need in addition to using television to pursue screenplay.
For example, his husband likes to watch videos in the middle of the night. It disturbs the children to sleep. Can they plug in their headphones to watch videos? When they encounter a fun video, they cannot take screenshots. Can they watch the barrage in a video? Come to the Internet and so on. According to these needs, we tested whether the TV box can be achieved.
Secret listening means that when we are shooting, we can plug headphones directly into the phone to listen to the screen while listening to headphones, avoid watching the TV at night to disturb the family, this function is only the Iqiyi TV stand by.
TV boxes all need to supply power, which requires more than one jack, but often only one two-pin jack on the wall is occupied by the TV. Often we need to prepare a slot, which is very inconvenient. However, due to the size of the TV because it can directly use the TV's HDMI port power supply, so the independent power supply is also one of Iqiyi's unique features.
If your box has a broadband port, plug in the Internet cable box can also be turned into a router, glory box has the ability to share hotspots; in the exclusive hotel mode, Iqiyi TV can also become a wireless hotspot, complex situation in the outside wifi You can also smooth the screen.
It is worth mentioning that the five television boxes all support PPT projection and projection projectors. For those who frequently move to work, plug in a USB flash drive or connect a mobile phone to speak PPT, without having to carry a bulky notebook. However, from the perspective of portability, Iqiyi TV is even better.
To sum up, after reading our five TV boxes Hengping, presumably you have to buy which one is already known, in general, we recommend two - Ichiyi TV and Haimei Di H7 four generations, of which the sea Meidi performance More powerful, suitable for enthusiasts, Iqiyi TV fruit pursuit of light experience, features and a closer relationship with the mobile phone, the audience and the use of a wider range of people; both are rich in video resources. For the sisters' and sisters' families, Xiao 8 feels that it is more suitable for them.
