You can dig deeper, you will find that it is a new product of the Internet age, it brings us technology life beyond imagination, although it is said that the network box is still being spit on the user, in the end what reason? Let's analyze it one by one!

TV version of the basic functions of mobile phones and mobile phones

The Internet set-top box is specially designed for televisions. It can be used as a set-top box to operate a set-top box conveniently using a remote control panel, eliminating the inconvenience of using a computer to connect televisions. Moreover, it is more attractive that most home digital TV set-top boxes will receive approximately 760 video channels. In addition to the common Internet set-top boxes, they can also install relevant applications to watch Youku and potatoes. The high-definition video content of many video sites such as Thunder, PPTV, iQiyi, LeTV, etc., can also watch almost all TV channels in China, and even live on many overseas TV stations. The total number of channels is 300, which is higher than 500, and the current Internet set-top box users pay no attention to watching these programs.
Another common use of ordinary Internet Internet set-top boxes is to use the Internet like a computer, but it can be more comfortable than using a computer. Taking reading text and picture messages as an example, you can sit or lie on the sofa in your favorite position. You can use the remote control to select news or gossip messages to be viewed. This can be much easier than sitting at a computer. As for online shopping and other general Internet access functions, accessibility is the same.

Internet video chat Now that there are many Internet set-top boxes supporting voice and video input functions, as long as the camera and microphone in the set-top box access, use QQ, MSN and other chat tools, you can carry out online video chat. Compared with chatting through a computer, the use of a TV may be more comprehensive because of the distance, and the video effect is also very clear with the support of a high-speed network and a high-definition camera. You can also video chat with the whole family, enjoyable.

When a wireless router uses most of the Internet set-top boxes on the market today, it has the function of wireless routing. Therefore, if you are ready to buy a wireless router, you may buy an Internet set-top box directly, which is not much more expensive, but it has more functions.

Shanzhai box sells more than 100 yuan

First, the cottage set-top box can not guarantee the upgrade of the product system. Most set-top boxes now use Android. For example, UT Starcom's originator of PHS produced UT egg box, rice flour preferred millet box, and Huawei's secret box with the hardware strength is widely recognized by the users. For example, the common feature is the regular license party, updated quickly, so that the box never Time!

Secondly, the sharpness of the shanzhai box is poor, and there are still gaps compared with digital TV high-definition programs. Program delays are also the biggest drawbacks of those copycat boxes. Their speed is affected by many factors such as server storage location, server bandwidth, and home broadband speed. It is the same as everyone watching related programs on computers. It cannot be “zero wait”. Not only can not achieve "zero wait", waiting time is still relatively long, can not be as free to switch as watching TV, each switch means that the need to wait for the set-top box to buffer the content of the program. What is even more unpleasant is that some cottages have built-in advertisements, and each time you switch, you have to look at a few seconds at a time, and a half-minute advertisement at a long time. The mood can be imagined.

Buy "box" to pay attention to what

Formal licensee

The choice of the licensee is the most important.

The most important factor, so Xiaobian recommend large brand manufacturers, such as the cost-effective UT eggs, rice flour preferred millet box, hardware known Huawei secret box.

Select hardware configuration

The level of hardware determines the performance of the set-top box. At present, most Internet set-top boxes in China use the Android system, which is the system adopted by most smart phones nowadays. Its performance is similar to that of mobile phones, except that Internet set-top boxes require televisions as display devices. Therefore, the choice of the hardware configuration of the set-top box and the selection of the mobile phone are the same considerations, namely, how much the main frequency is, how many cores, how much memory, how much storage. In principle, the bigger the configuration, the better, because more and more applications will be applied in the future, and the requirements for configuration will be higher and higher, and there will be room for development. Of course, it is also necessary to consider the cost performance, too advanced configuration is also not necessary.



Select application software

First of all, it is necessary to select whether the built-in broadcast control platform of the Internet set-top box is easy to use and how stable it is. This determines the use experience of the set-top box itself. Second, we must pay attention to the scalability of set-top boxes, whether the set-top box supports user-installed applications, how many applications can be installed, which determines the value of the set-top box to play
