  • Performance beast and extraordinary image quality
Style: 8K Android Media Player
As an avid tech enthusiast and movie buff, the MINIX U8K-ULTRA Smart TV Box has truly exceeded my expectations. Powered by the robust Amlogic S928X-K processor, this device is a beast in terms of performance. This product boasts exceptional image quality—utterly crisp and perfect for my at-home movie nights! In addition to allowing me to directly input the desired numbers, this remote control stands out from other products by enabling website entry—truly a unique design. Furthermore, it boasts the capability of voice input, which significantly saves a lot of time and eliminates hassle. I must emphasize that MINIX's customer service level is unmatched among many sellers. When I initially struggled to understand how to operate the remote control, seeking their help yielded patient and thorough guidance. If you encounter issues with using the remote control, just like I did, you can reach out to MINIX's official email, and they will provide operational videos. You can also find the technical support email in the product's user manual. ... show more

  • A powerful media player running on Android OS (which cannot compete with apps on Android TV).
Style: 8K Android Media Player
I've been a huge Plex user, and I have run plex from my TV, the web (phone, computer), Roko's but primarily my Nvidia Shield TV Pro. The Shield is an old device and I'm always looking for a better option that supports lossless audio formats and HDMI 2.1 (Shield is only 2.0). I saw this box by accident, but dug into the specs and it was certainly a big hardware upgrade from my shield. I saw it on sale and decided to give it a shot. It was fairly easy to get it installed and the performance was very good (although wouldn't say better than the Shield). Where things went bad is in the Plex application which is running on android OS (Minix) vs android TV (Plex). The interface wasn't very intuitive, and it didn't offer many of the options on my Shield. The fast forward and rewind were very klunky, and within using it for a few hours I knew I would never use the device to replace my shield. I give 3 stars because it did work, and perform as expected, but I ended up returning the device as it did not adequately work anywhere near as well as my Shield Pro. Waiting for the next thing..... ... show more

  • Kodi playing 4k 5.1 AAC
Style: 8K Android Media Player
The media could not be loaded. As you can see, it's PG 1080p h264 AAC 5.1 2.4 0. 0. It plays an HD Adobe vision as mentioned and reviews on YouTube saying it won't play anything except 2.0. as you see from the video it is playing 5.1 through my 7.14 Samsung playing beautiful, no hiccups.

  • Excellent capabilities
Style: 8K Android Media Player
Excellent picture quality! Dolby Vision and the HDR's are great. All the audio DTS formats and Dolby formats are supported after allowing the update. There has been an update each of the past two months and I expect another one soon.

  • Useless

I couldn't use this tv box. When turned on, it keeps rebooting continously. I returned it to the seller.

  • Misleading claims, capable performance
It says it's 8k, but I was not able to get that resolution, either the claims are inflated or there is something with the unit I recived In terms of performance, it's fairly capable. The user interface is not the best though

  • Great box
Style: 8K Android Media Player
This box is super easy to set up and very fast . I wish some of the preinstalled apps could be removed but they can be disabled . Installed Kodi , Tvimate , Smartube , Plex and Implayer . Picture quality on my Dolby Vision device is incredible . You cant go wrong with a Minix device.
