Performance beast and extraordinary image quality

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.

Quality Android Box

The Minix U8K Ultra is an excellent Android box, costly to some others although you get what you paid for.Quick delivery and well packed. Recommended.

What happened to Minix?

I reordered and received the Minix U8K Ultra. I had hoped that after all this time, the developers would have resolved many, if not all, of the bugs and introduced some new features. There are new features available under Minix Settings in the latest firmware. Be sure to check them out! I have had challenges getting certain apps to function correctly. Some apps integrated into the latest firmware present issues. One integrated app/icon in my applications list is non-functional and I cannot remove or uninstall it. I had to resort to one of the various app stores to download a properly functioning version of that app. Consequently, I ended up with two app icons, of which only one will operate. The settings for another app cannot be modified and does not work correctly, even after updating the integrated version. Following the update on the play store, the error message indicating that an app displaying over other apps is preventing it from scanning and updating your applications will no longer appear. That was a relief! I noticed some apps I need aren't available for this device in any of the app stores This device has too many hoops for me to go through. I lost the interest along the way because the trouble I had to go through to get this to work properly isn’t worth the time. I need/want a seamless experience. On a new device I shouldn't have to rack my brain!

A powerful media player running on Android OS (which cannot compete with apps on Android TV).

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.....

Kodi playing 4k 5.1 AAC

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.

Great Box

This is the only brand I've ever owned and will definitely buy again. I have four different earlier models and they are still in use and handling the newer video formats with ease.
