With the increasing popularity of 4K resolution, major TV manufacturers and video resource manufacturers have begun to turn their attention to 8K resolution. In addition to more and more 8K TVs, 8K video resources are also slowly increasing.
And there are high brushes following 8K. I believe that everyone has heard of 4K@120fps and 8K@60fps this year.
Of course, high resolution and high refresh rate video brings higher requirements for bandwidth and chip decoding capabilities. Most ordinary 2K and 4K TVs in the home want to decode 4K@120fps and 8K@60fps video, which is obviously a little bit powerless.
Changing the TV is obviously unrealistic, so how can we experience 8K high-brush video? The answer is the TV box.
Dangbei has launched an 8K TV box that can match today's flagship 8K TVs-Dangbei B3 Pro.
This may be one of the most powerful TV boxes on the market, so how does it perform? Today, let’s take a look.
Appreciation analysis
Dangbei B3 Pro continues the design of Dangbei’s flagship TV box B1.
The square shape, unpretentious, simple black and white color, plus the texture of frosted plastic, concise and high-end.
The golden 8K ULTRA HD on the top reveals a touch of luxury and nobility in its simplicity and low-key, and also indicates its ultimate performance. It is like an ornament on the TV cabinet.
The interface configuration on the back is basically the same as the previous generation, HDMI audio and video connector, USB port, network cable interface, power supply interface and AV analog audio and video interface.
Of course, the USB interface has also been upgraded from the previous generation of USB2.0 to USB3.0, and the HDMI interface has been upgraded to the latest HDMI2.1. The network cable interface has also been upgraded to a gigabit network port.
The remote control uses the same Bluetooth remote control as the previous generation, which is simple and easy to use, especially the magic buttons on the side of the remote control, which can call up settings and adjust screen parameters without switching the homepage.
At the same time, it also supports customization, which is used to quickly call up the functions you want to use.
Configuration parameter
In general, the appearance of the Dangbei B3 Pro is not much different from the previous generation, but its hardware configuration can be said to have changed greatly.
When B3 Pro upgraded the chip to S922X, it can be said that this is the highest-end processor in the current TV box, using a 6-core processor.
The powerful processor naturally brings powerful decoding capabilities. Dangbei B3 Pro supports up to 8K@60fps decoding, which is enough to match today's flagship 8K TVs.
The interface also uses the latest HDMI2.1 interface to smoothly transmit high-resolution and high-refresh rate video without the current bandwidth bottleneck.
Our actual measurement also found that the video decoding capability of Dangbei B3 Pro is really strong, it can easily decode 8K video, and the picture is very smooth without a trace of lag.
We played a video of 8K@60fps, no matter how we drag the progress bar, there is no buffer jam.
In terms of memory and storage, Dangbei B3 Pro also has a major upgrade. The running memory has been upgraded from the original 3GB DDR4 to 4GB DDR4 Samsung memory. The larger memory will bring a smoother system experience. Installing and running large-scale game software pressure, zero lag.
The storage space is upgraded to 64GB, no longer worry about insufficient storage space, download resources no longer need to plan carefully.
In addition, Dangbei B3 Pro also uses a gigabit network port, which can open hotspots and can be used as a gigabit router to watch 4K videos, 4K live broadcasts, 4K games and other live broadcasts and cloud games online, and online courses will not be stuck.
In general, the configuration and performance of the Dangbei B3 Pro is absolutely worthy of the word "flagship", and there is no need to worry about it dragging down your 8K TV.
System resource
On the system, Dangbei B3 Pro still maintains a clean and concise interface, which is brisk and free, without any bells and whistles.
On the boot, there is no boot advertisement, which is considered as Dangbei's usual style and deserves praise. Turning on is still fast, almost a second.
Video resources have become more and more important to users. Dangbei B3 Pro covers almost the entire network of video resources, and has built-in video resources from many video websites.
At the same time, there is an exclusive sports content section, genuine sports live broadcasts are watched online.
In addition, Dangbei B3 Pro also has a built-in exclusive child mode, which has a wealth of content resources for teenagers and children, and provides a healthy viewing experience for teenagers and children.
As for application resources, Dangbei is born in the smart TV application market, so there is no need to worry about application resources. Massive application resources, from games to life to education, all kinds of APP resources.
Smart experience
If the powerful hardware configuration and massive video resources make us comfortable to use, then the smart function makes us comfortable to use.
Dangbei B3 Pro has built-in AI intelligent voice control, from checking life services (weather), to on-demand movies, online live broadcasts, to installing third-party software, all in one sentence.
At the same time, Dangbei B3 Pro also supports remote housekeeping, remote monitoring of real-time TV viewing, and a clear grasp of children’s watching content at home.
As for the situation where the remote control cannot be found, Dangbei B3 Pro supports the remote control to sound automatically, and the remote control function can be easily retrieved through Dangbei OS official account. Of course, you can also remotely control the TV through Dangbei Remote Control APP.
Of course, the smartest thing about Dangbei B3 Pro should be its intelligent algorithm recommendation. Dangbei B3 Pro’s system will base on the user’s viewing records, viewing time period, and viewing preferences. When the user does not know what to watch, It can accurately recommend the content users want to watch and help users discover new movie resources.
Summary
Under the impact of smart TVs, the popularity of TV boxes has fallen below that of the past, and more and more people are worried about whether there are still market prospects for TV boxes.
However, the reality is that television almost has new technology every year, but how many people change their television every year? How many people are still using old TV products from years ago?
And the TV box allows you to spend less money, let your old TV use the latest technology, fancy the latest resources. Based on this alone, the TV box cannot be replaced.
If you want your old TV to be able to stream the latest 8K resources, then Dangbei B3 Pro is definitely a very suitable choice.
