Like a jade TV is not like TV box: Skyworth box Q+ II evaluation

On May 11th, Skyworth held a new product conference and released the Skyworth box Q+II TV box. The sofa butler also sent the Q+II in-depth evaluation of Skyworth box for the first time. In fact, as early as last week, the sofa butler received an invitation letter from Skyworth and a mysterious TV box. After seeing it open, he was amazed. Today, let the author lead you to feel it.

One, out of the box reward map

The packaging of Skyworth Q+ II is very simple, with all black hard paper boxes, and only the words "Shengwei Box" and the "Penguin TV" text and icons on the front. It looks somewhat mysterious.


Open the box, shocked by Heaven! A television box resembling "love" lies quietly in the box slot, as if it were a jadeite inlaid in the box.


Open the paper cover underneath the box and see all the parts at a glance.


Skyworth Box Q+II's parts are all taken out: TV box, remote control, HDMI cable, power adapter, these parts are unified with black matte processing, full texture.


Skyworth Q+ is the most stunning second generation of the appearance of a number of boxes, similar to the love of the shape used in the TV box is still the first time, perfect curvature, indicating Skyworth's TV box in the manufacturing process has been very high. The size of the Skyworth Q+ II is moderate, one hand can be completely won, and it is held in the hand, feeling an artistic atmosphere flowing between the palms.


If it is not the symbol of "Skyworth" on the front of the box, I am afraid that most people do not recognize this as a TV box. There is a very regular protrusion right below the box, which is actually an indicator light that glows blue when connected to the power supply.




Skyworth Box Q+ II is divided into upper and lower parts of the fuselage, with a circle of metal in the middle of the connection, the details are handled very well, no gaps and no glitches, the combination is very compact.


Skyworth Q+ II interface is now more popular "standard", in the back, from left to right are DC IN interface, HDMI interface, NET interface, USB interface and AV interface. In addition, the cover part of the back surface is treated as a "cover", so that these interfaces do not affect the overall appearance to the greatest extent, and the visual effect is ensured as a whole.


The back of the Skyworth Q+ II is a circular pedestal. Similarly, in order not to affect the overall appearance of the pedestal, there is no structure such as adding a bracket. The relevant information of Skyworth Q+ II can be seen at the bottom. It can be seen that the content of this TV box is provided by Connected Octagon and Penguin TV.


The Skyworth Q+ II remote controller also uses the more popular and simple design. It has a 12-button layout, connects to the box via Bluetooth, and has voice control.


The grip of the remote control is very good, with a slight bulge in the middle and just one-handed operation.


Second, hardware performance

The appearance of a TV box is of course important, and "lizi" can't be worse.

Skyworth Q+ II adopts AMLOGIC Crystal Chen Semiconductor S905 processor, which is based on a quad-core A53 architecture processor, internal frequency 2GHz, supporting the image processor is 5 Mali450, this processor support for 4K playback Very good, support Ultra HD 4K 60fps hardware decoding, support H.265 10 bit. About 4K playback, it will be mentioned separately later.

Memory is 1GB DDR3 memory, 8GB high-speed storage space. With the S905 processor, dealing with commonly used video games is nothing to lose.

Try "fishing up people 2 TV version", this puzzle game screen effects are more, in fact, the device performance requirements are not low, measured the Skye box Q + second generation of the basic flow of operation, and occasionally there will be dropped frames.


Try the "Riptide Airship 2", this game is actually a variant of racing racing class, the player operating a motor boat to run on the river. Skyworth Box Q+ II runs smoothly without any snagging, and splash effects are very good.


Try "My World", this famous sandbox game has come across smart phones on multiple platforms. Skyworth box Q+ II runs smoothly without stress, but it needs to be reminded that this game does not support the remote controller and requires an external game controller or mouse.


In general, although the Skyworth Q+ II hardware performance is not as amazing as its appearance, it has also reached a very outstanding level. There is no pressure to play some daily games.

Third, the UI interface

The UI of the Skyworth Q+ II box adopts the latest card design concept of the Android system. The horizontal layout is simple and elegant. It is divided into three screens, the first screen is the main "My Footprint" and "guess you like", "My Footprint" is similar to the viewing history, you can directly enter the TV programs you have seen before; and "Guess what you like" is It is smartly recommended movie and TV dramas. At present, there are some popular movies and TV dramas.


The second screen is the TV rankings and some small classified channels, such as variety shows, movies, etc. A small detail is great: the cursor moves to the movie leaderboard and you can preview the movie's ranking without pressing OK.


The third screen is mainly the search function and the current hot search of videos and applications. Because it is an engineering machine, the hot search application displays the test icons, which are not shown here.

Some of the commonly used small functions are placed on the right side of the first screen, including the computer's own information flight TV assistant, cloud audio and video penguins, and Tianzhu karaoke. In addition, the system also comes with a "cast screen tutorial", cast screen function is very powerful, but many users do not know how to use, with the tutorial effect will be much better.




Fourth, install third-party applications

Skyworth Q+ II support for third-party applications is very powerful, not only does not shield apk files as individual vendors, but also provides a very user-friendly file management system. I visit the sofa network () to download the sofa butler installation package, plug the U disk into Skyworth Q + second generation USB interface. Enter the media center, locate the sofa butler package under the file category, and press OK to install.


Here is why the sofa butler is an example. Because the sofa butler is a very powerful third-party application market, after installing the sofa butler, you can download any TV application you want.



Five, 4K playback

The SkyQ Q+ II is so outstanding in appearance that it must not be too bad in 4K playback. In order to test its true power of 4K playback, the author purposely used U disk to copy several segments of 4K video and played it in person.

Playing a 4K video “Sushi” recorded by Sony Corporation, playing smooth and non-stopping;



Plays a 4K demo video of French Canal Canal+, which is also smooth and non-stopping;


The Dawn_of_Titans_Announce_Trailer game video produced by EA Company is extremely impressive.


Playing the 4K video clip recorded by Changhong: “Hokkaido Flower Sea”, the details of the characters' faces on a close-up lens are clearly seen.


Sixth, summary

As a TV box fan, I've probably used dozens of TV boxes. One thing is for sure, Skyworth Q+ II is not the fastest box with the fastest configuration, but it is definitely the highest value TV box. Like the appearance of jade, it makes people feel at a glance.

In terms of content and hardware, the Skyworth Q+II represents no difference. The cooperation between Penguin TV and Skyworth Q+ II will not lose any license plate.
