In this article, I will introduce it one by one in three parts: Product configuration; Product comparison; Product recommendation. You can choose your custom android tv box according to my explanation. Of course, you can also browse our home page to view other products that are selling well.
First introduce our H96 Max X3 custom android tv box. This custom android tv box uses Amlogic s905X3 chip. On this custom android tv box, due to model restrictions, its operating system is Android 9.0, USB interface and Bluetooth are standard 1*USB2.0+1*USB3.0, BT4.0, and SPDIF interfaces, and it supports 8K video playback and has a 1000mb/s network port. In terms of WiFi, we use the 2.4g/5g dual WiFi transmission protocol. As for our H96 Max X4 TV box, it uses Amlogic s905X4 chip. The operating system can perfectly adapt to Android 11.0. The USB interface and Bluetooth are also standard 1*USB2.0+1*USB3.0, BT4.0, and SPDIF interfaces. It also supports 8K video playback. The rate of the Internet port is reduced to 100mb/s, which is also for longer service life, because we found that too high Internet port rate will bring higher temperature during use, Once the temperature exceeds the limit, the aging of the machine will be accelerated, so we decided to reduce the network port speed while ensuring the stability of WiFi acceptance.
Amlogic S905X4 will be slightly faster due to the higher (default) maximum CPU frequency of 2.0 GHz, but most people will not notice the difference. S905X4 is supposed to support Vulkan 1.1, while S905X3 does not, but I believe this is just due to more up-to-date Android SDK, and not differences in the silicon itself. S905X4 supports Nagra DRM, a more recent version of HDCP, and integrates a dual-core audio DSP which may be why there’s no optional AI accelerator. There are also some minor differences with the crypto engine.
So from a user perspective, the only real difference will be support for 4K AV1 hardware video decoding that boosts efficiency by 20% compared to H.265/HEVC, and saves 30% bandwidth compared to H.265/VP9. Since AV1 is supported by Netflix, YouTube, and other online video streaming services, you may experience less buffering for the same video quality, or higher video quality for an equivalent bitrate.
The H96 Max X3 custom android tv box uses a 1000mb/s Ethernet port, while the H96 MAX X4 custom android tv box uses a 100Mb/s Ethernet port. As for the reason, as mentioned above, it is mainly to improve the aging. Secondly, it is found that the higher Ethernet port speed does not significantly improve the viewing experience for general household use.
H96 MAX X4 custom android tv box has more choices on this point. There are 2G and 4G RAM options and 16G/32G/64G ROM options. A variety of options are more suitable for different household use needs. H96 MAX X3 custom android tv box has fewer choices, 4G RAM and 32G/64G/128G ROM, but it is especially suitable for users who need to download more applications on TV.
In this part, I will give a group recommendation for these two products.
For ordinary users, I suggest that you can purchase H96 MAX X4 custom android tv box, because its firmware is enough to meet your daily use. Android 11 system allows you to experience the latest Android ecosystem. The 100Mb/s network speed plus 2.4G/5G dual WiFi brings you a smooth viewing experience and it is much cheaper than H96 MAX X3 custom android tv box in price.
For film and television enthusiasts, I suggest you to purchase H96 MAX X3 custom android tv box. Although there are some deficiencies in the operating system, the 1000Mb/s Internet port plus 2.4G/5G dual WiFi can easily meet your needs for smooth viewing.
I believe you have a certain understanding of these two custom android tv boxes. If you need a custom android tv box, please buy it on demand.
