This is my third review of TV boxes based on the Allwinner H6 system-on-chip (SoC). In my opinion, this processor is unfairly overlooked, with more attention given to models using Amlogic and Rockchip chips. Though the recently released models with newer Amlogic chips, made using a smaller process node, will probably draw even more attention. But let’s get on with the review: as always, I’ll take a look at the box, take it apart, run some tests, and wrap up with a summary table.

I got my hands on a rather interesting TV box based on the RK3328 SoC. I’ve already reviewed at least three TV boxes built around this fairly popular processor, but this one isn’t exactly a “budget” model. As usual, the review will cover the exterior, teardown, tests, and conclusions, along with a summary table of the TV boxes I’ve tested.

Last month I posted a review of a TV box from Vorke, and even then I suspected it looked a lot like one of Tanix's TV box models. No, today's review isn't of its twin; it just so happens that even in this form, the model I'm reviewing has a lot in common with the Vorke. And on top of that, it's built around Amlogic's new S905W SoC. Let's take a look, take it apart, test it, and see how the new SoC compares with the previous versions.
