Foreword: Speaking of Tai Jie, we will certainly not be unfamiliar with the famous Tai Jie video development. From the beginning of the Thai-Thai video, Tate has been active in the OTT box field. In the past five years, we have launched three boxes of webox20, 20S and 20C products, which have been invested by Internet giant Tencent. This year's September 10, the new Tecite WE30 is released again, this box as a new flagship version of Tactworks has a new breakthrough in configuration and performance, it is the first TV with 8-core 64-bit CPU box. What is the performance of this Tigerjet WE30 as a flagship fighter? Let's take a look at this new product from Taijie.
The Tektronix WE30 continues the design of the previous and next generation of snapped square boxes on the packaging. The box is white as a whole, and the front is outlined with gold lines to simplify the product's simple shape. It is simple to exude the breath of art. The back of the box is printed with some information parameters of the product according to the convention.
The layout of the interior space of the Taijie packaging box is also very neat. The upper and lower sides are designed with the upper layer being the box mainframe, and the lower layer is the remote control, data line, high-definition line and other accessories, with the product specification and certificate of approval in the middle.
The first impression of appearance as a product is very important. At the same time, as a digital product used in the living room, the TV box is not only able to integrate well with the home but also to decorate the home. . A good appearance is inseparable from a good design, and a good design can also reflect the manufacturer's design capabilities and technical level from the side. Let's take a look at how the Tektronix WE30 performs in appearance. At the same time, in order to increase the contrast, the author introduced the Tmall Box 2, enhanced version of the millet box, and the standard version of the Huawei Glory Box to conduct a comparative evaluation to see if it was the tall handsome man in the box.
Tai Jie WE30 as the company's calendar year roll out of the company, the appearance can be described as amazing, class back shell design, black and white, the score is clear. At the bottom, "WEBOX" is marked in gold typeface and it is beautiful. At the same time, the outer surface uses a paint design, smooth as a mirror, not only looks beautiful, feels very comfortable.
The Lynx Box 2 is similar in shape to the Tate. It is also a backshell design, and the box looks more rounded. Lynx Box 2 is a white-gray color scheme with a silver lining in the middle. It is full of spirituality and adds a lot of color to the face. Coupled with the front of the cartoon cat Logo, making the product looks very cute.
The enhanced version of the millet box is a square design. The corners are rounded and rounded. The combination of square and round looks equally good. The color is black, and it is relatively monotonous. The surface is frosted. Although not more beautiful than baking paint, it is not easy to contaminate fingerprints. The “MI†logo is imprinted with bright faces, giving people a low-key and deep feeling.
Huawei's glory box adopts a rigorous square shape with a black body and a white glory logo in the middle. The box is very small, almost half the size of an ordinary box, and at the same time it is also very thin. Although the surface of a piano paint is used, it does not feel noble under the influence of a small head.
The bottom view shows:
The back of the product is relatively simple. The bottom of the Tektronix WEBOX is a round base design. The surface material is the same as the top, and it is still very bright. The middle of the base is the product SN, MAC code sticker, product model manufacturer and other information. A full circle of black silicone anti-slip mat is designed around the circumference to prevent the product from slipping on a smooth surface. Because it is a full circle design, it is stable in all directions.
The back of the Lynx Box 2 is also the same as the product parameter information. The difference is that the Lynx Box will also reset the hole at the bottom of the box, that is, the hole below the bar code, which is very concealed. The gray part of the base is made of silicone material, and four bar-like contacts are highlighted as the support, which effectively reduces the resultant force while preventing slippage. It is very good. The disadvantage is that the base material is easy to be contaminated with dust and is not easy to clean.
The bottom of the enhanced version of the millet box is also a non-slip mat, but compared to Tai Jie's plane, the millet has a curved surface and the contact area is reduced.
The bottom of the glory box is square, and the upper and lower sides are rectangular silicone non-slip mats. The middle position is also the product information parameter.
The four boxes are two round, two black and white, and the Tektronix WE30 is the largest of the four. If there are no four comparisons at the same time, I may prefer the Tmall box, but overall, the Tektronix WEBOX has become my first choice. Black and white color and back shell shape have higher affinity to the environment and can be better integrated in different home styles. The size of the fuselage is very suitable, a bit more atmosphere than the Tmall box, very beautiful on the TV cabinet. Huawei and Xiaomi have a little bit of color in mind. If they just sit under the table, it would be very embarrassing to have a black glass TV cabinet just like the author. The comparability of the back of the product is far inferior to the positive. Although there are some differences in the non-slip design and the form, there is little effect on the actual use of the product. There is not much comment here.
In addition, the side design of Tektronix's WE30 is different. There are 70 holes with a width of 1mm around the box. This is not available in the other three boxes. These 70 holes are not simply for decoration, but are mainly used for the heat dissipation of the box. As with the other three boxes, today's TV boxes commonly use internal conduction heat dissipation design, while the Tektronix WE30 is uniquely adhere to the heat dissipation, which undoubtedly makes it an absolute advantage in the cooling area and cooling speed. This perfect combination of function and decoration also makes it a bright spot on the appearance of Tektronix's WE30.
Compared with the previous products of Taijie, the Tektronix WE30 has more abundant and perfect interface configuration. The back jacks are 5V/2A power interfaces, USB2.0 interfaces, Micro SD card sockets, and RJ45 network cables from left to right. Interface, HDMI cable jack, reset hole, and AV output. The box's Micro SD card slot supports up to 256GB of storage expansion, and such a large capacity is rarely seen in TV boxes. At the same time add the AV interface, for the old TV without HDMI interface, Tai Jie WE30 can be connected through the AV interface, although not reach the HD image quality, but the meaning of the old TV is still very large. From this it can be seen that the compatibility of the Taijie WE30 is super. Here we look at the other three boxes:
Tmall box back jacks are AV output ports, HDMI line jacks, RJ45 network cable ports, USB2.0, and 5.2V/2.1A power ports from left to right. The reset holes are designed at the bottom of the box. No Micro SD card slot, no support for peripheral memory expansion.
The back box of the millet box is 5.2V/2.1A power interface, Micro-USB interface, USB2.0 interface, Micro SD card socket, HDMI cable socket and AV output port from left to right. Without a cable interface, the Micro SD card has a maximum capacity of 64G, which is much less than that of the Tektronix WE30.
The back jacks of the Huawei Glory Box are, from left to right, a 5.1V/2.1A power connector, an RJ45 network cable connector, a USB2.0 connector, an HDMI cable connector, and an AV output connector. The Micro SD card connector is designed on the side of the box. Micro SD card expansion capacity up to 64G.
The Tektronix WE30 can be said to be the most comprehensive in terms of the type and number of jacks that the four boxes are equipped with, while the SD card expansion capacity is also the largest. In addition, in terms of the layout of the jack, the Tektronix WE30 is also very reasonable and outstanding. It can be seen from the above figure that the HDMI interface and USB interface of TJT and Tmall Box are separated, while the Xiaomi and Huawei boxes are linked together. If you encounter a small U disk, such a small interval It seems crowded, and it may even happen that it cannot be used at the same time. Taijie and Tmall effectively avoided this situation.
Taijie WE30 comes with a remote control (including battery), HDMI high-definition data cable, split-type power supply, manual and certificate. It can be said to be the standard accessory of the TV box. We are looking at the configuration of Tmall, Xiaomi and Huawei's three boxes:
Lynx box 2 family portrait. (Because the accessories of the Tmall box in the author's hand are not complete, the picture here is borrowed for the internet).
Millet box enhanced family portrait.
Huawei glory Standard Edition family portrait.
Through the above several box family portraits can be seen that the current mainstream box accessories category is almost the same. The difference is in the configuration of the power cord and remote control. Only the power supply of the Tektronix WE30 is split in all four boxes. The advantage of this design is that for the U-powered TV or other external devices, the Tektronix WE30 can directly supply power from peripherals, and the power supply is more diversified. Next we take a closer look at the difference between the four boxes on the remote control:
Four remote control from left to right once for the Thai Jie WE30 remote control, millet remote control, Huawei glory remote control, Lynx box remote control. In terms of appearance, the Tektronix WE30 is the smallest in size, with a slightly curved top and tail design. The control panel has a matte touch and the tail is dark and glossy. It looks very small and exquisite. In addition, the appearance of the other three remote controls is relatively satisfactory, except that the Tmall Magic Box remote control has rounded corners. In the key design, Taijie, Xiaomi, Huawei box remote control are the same, are 11 key settings; Lynx box features the most, 13 key design, with voice operation and its unique features to grab, voice function for the elderly and children Operation, very practical, if the Tate box can also join it is perfect.
In the remote control power supply mode, the Tektronix WE30 and Xiaomi remote control provide power for the button battery. Huawei and Lynx Box provide power for the traditional No. 7 battery. The author relatively prefers button battery power supply, which can effectively reduce the size and weight of the remote control, and is relatively easy to use. The most important thing is the last, that is, the difference in remote control technology. The Tektronix WE30 and Tmall's box remote control uses 2.4G wireless remote control technology. Huawei and Xiaomi's boxes are traditional infrared remote control technology. Compared with the infrared remote control technology, 2.4G wireless remote control technology has a larger remote control area, free from the angle restrictions, and operates more freely. At the same time, the signal transmission bandwidth is greater, and more complex remote control operations such as voice and somatosensory can be realized.
So, in summary, the Taijie WE30 is still very good in the accessories. The power adapter is outstanding and uncontroversial. Although the remote control has less functionality than the Lynx Box, it is currently the latest in remote control technology. With its compact and convenient shape, the practicality and portability are very high.
As a flagship product, the Tektronix WE30 is further enhanced in performance configuration, using 8-core RK3368 1.5GHz processor, 28nm process, using ARM's latest Cortex-A53 architecture, supporting 64-bit mode, making the processor data stream width increased Doubled, to achieve the ultimate order of execution architecture. Compared with the predecessors A5/A7 in the performance of the same frequency, it is even faster than A9. Reduces power consumption while improving energy efficiency. The display chip adopts PowerVR G6110 and supports OpenGL ES 3.1. The graphics processing capability is very good. It performs well in color reproduction and image hierarchy display, and it supports 4K video and H.265 format hard-solution video output. The Tektronix WE30 on the memory provides 1G of running memory and 8GeMMC flash memory. The flash memory uses Toshiba MLC flash memory particles, making the Tektronix WE30 more stable and faster. The author compares the configuration of the Taijie with the configuration of the other three boxes, as shown below:
Since the overall performance of the machine has to be considered from many aspects, it is obviously not comprehensive to rely on several parameters alone. Here, the author used the currently recognized security Bunny running sub-software to run the sub-test on the four boxes. The test results are as follows: Picture:
From the perspective of the running of the four boxes, Xiaomi is indeed the legendary king of running, the stable first, followed by Taijie WE30, Lynx 2 and the difference between the three is not too much; and the main video function The glory of Huawei's running is only more than half of the three points. Therefore, running from the above points can be seen that the Tektronix WE30 is definitely the high end of the box, watching video, playing games should be a proper wood problem.
The Tektronix WE30 is equipped with Android 5.1.1 system. In addition to the Jingdong Weilian that is used to realize intelligent control, the App is completely zero-preloaded. The system is very pure and there is no annoying promotion of App and various types of shopping advertisements. It gives users maximum freedom while ensuring system space utilization. UI interface design is simple and intuitive, easy to operate, mainly composed of the two main board blocks of the video and game boards and the game center, as well as the application mall, one-click acceleration, Jingdong Micro-Link, local browser, and setting up subsidiary boards. The TV and TV section is equipped with the formal licensee CIBN (China International Radio and TV Network Station) approved by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and provides a wide range of genuine resources, which can meet the needs of viewers of all ages and all kinds of hobbies. A slight disadvantage is that the Tektronix WE30 application store provides only 81 application downloads. Although it supports remote installation and U disk installation, it is not as easy as direct installation. It is expected to add more later. Here we look at the UI customization of the other three boxes:
The Lynx Box 2 is equipped with a YunOS 2.0 system. The beautiful starry background and rounded corners give the user a very refined and beautiful visual appearance. Compared to the purity of the Taijie WE30 system, the built-in platform and APP of Box 2 are quite rich. Tmall Box 2 is not only equipped with China Digital TV's genuine video resource platform, but also equipped with its own film and television music section, providing a large number of high-definition and 3D video resources and music resources, in addition to carrying a complete Alibaba family number for home entertainment. Entertainment services platform, TV Taobao, game music, children's education, Lions Gate film industry, search for documentary area and so on. In addition, the power of the Tmall box is under each icon, such as viewing history, my collections, my games, recent use of applications and other records exist, easy for users to look at, very practical.
The millet box enhanced version uses Android 4.4.2 system, using Metro style interface, the interface gives a very simple feeling. The genuine video resources of the millet box are provided by ICNTV, and resources are also very secure. At the same time, Xiaomi uses the advantages of Xiaomi's “app store†and has rich application software. There are 6 categories, including lifestyle entertainment, video and audio imaging, practical tools, parent-child education, health care, and library information. Built-in Thunder remote download function is also very useful. Convenience.
Huawei glory enhanced version also carries Android 4.4 system, its interface operation is more simple, it will be directly on the top of the classification, secondary menu is displayed directly on the main page, more intuitive. The Galaxy TV Internet (GITV) platform is used for film and television resources, and resources are also sufficient. The relatively outstanding place of Huawei's box is its excellent optimization settings. The box's unique ImprexTM video enhancement engine and its compatibility with spdif's optical audio output make this box not very good for performance.
Taijie, Tmall, Xiaomi, Huawei, as the big players in the field of television boxes today, have their own unique insights and profound skills in system optimization and configuration. Although it cannot be said that it is equally divided, it is also a matter of merit. What's more, different people have different appetites. Some people like Taijie's simplicity. Some people like Tmall's richness. Some people like millet's compatibility. Some people like Huawei's personalized settings. The so-called radish greens have their own love. The author will not make more comments. However, it is worth mentioning that since the establishment of the Taijie WEBOX project in March of 13th, it has insisted on updating the system in two weeks, with more than 1,300 days. The continuous optimization and progress of Tage has effectively ensured the stable, smooth and fast video system for users. Better use of the experience quietly.
As 4K television enters people's lives, people's requirements for the definition of picture quality are also increasing. The most recent flagship of the Tage WE30 is equipped with the PowerVR G6110 graphics chip, which perfectly supports the resolution of the 4K video and the hard H.265 encoding solution. The author passed the test of the three versions of the 4K commonly used test video roast duck to the Tegatron WE30. The results showed that the Tektronix WE30 can play smoothly and the picture quality is very good. The audio aspect supports up to 32 channels. Quite awesome. Test video effects as shown below:
In the four boxes of Tatelite, Tmall, Xiaomi, and Huawei, the decoding and playback capabilities are also excellent. There are also Huawei boxes. The Huawei box has a built-in hardware decoding HiVPX4 decoder chip, which also perfectly decodes the 4K source in the H.265 encoding format. The enhanced version of the millet box and the Tmall box do not support the hard solution to the H.265 encoding. In the actual playback, it will take up a lot of resources, and it will appear unsmooth or unsupported.
In addition to the rich video and music resources for the TV box, the most attractive is to interact with the game through a large-screen TV. TV is more powerful and exciting than the small screen games of computers and mobile phones. The quality of the TV box game experience depends on two conditions: one is the performance of the box itself, and the other is the support and compatibility of peripherals. In addition to these two decisive conditions, the soundness and richness of the built-in game platform of the box system also play a role in the user's experience. However, with the introduction of various video game platforms, App, it gradually becomes less important.
The eight-core RK3368 processor and the PowerVR G6110 graphics chip provided by the Tektronix WE30 allow it to have excellent game running and picture processing capabilities. The author tried several mainstream large-scale games that are very smooth and non-dating. In addition to the USB interface, the peripherals also support Bluetooth 4.0 technology, which not only supports wired controllers, 2.4G wireless controllers and other peripherals through the USB connection, but also supports connection through the Bluetooth mode, making the game more convenient. Slightly less of a problem is that some games under the game platform cannot be installed normally. They can not be installed after the download is completed, and the situation of repeated downloading is actually very big.
In addition to the Tektronix WE30, the author also played on the other three boxes. Like the Tektronix WE30, the Tmall Box 2 and the enhanced version of the millet box are all high-end machines in mainstream TV boxes. The current mainstream major games can be played smoothly. Glory box performance is slightly worse, but the general game is no longer the case, home entertainment is still no problem. In terms of peripherals compatibility, only the Tektronix WE30 and enhanced version of the millet box support the Bluetooth mode, while the Tmall Box 2 and the Huawei box have no Bluetooth connectivity. The system comes with a game platform, I think it is not too good, the game volume and quality are not high, in order to better experience or download the game platform, negative simulation game platform like it.
In addition to the above-mentioned user-focused features, the Taijie WE30 also has some unique features, such as the launch of the WeChat album feature with WeChat, the mobile phone control function and the wireless screen-casting interaction function with JD.com, and so on. One by one, more surprises are left for everyone to discover.
Although today's TV boxes are flourishing and have their own strengths, the Tektronix WE30, as the latest flagship of Tagere, is outstanding both in appearance and performance. Compared with the three boxes of Lynx Box 2, Enhanced Box, and Huawei Glory Standard Edition, it can be seen that the Tektronix WE30 can be said to be the director of the public, with both stylish appearance, strong performance configuration, and 4K poles. Clear picture quality output and excellent decoding capabilities are the latest technologies even in remote controller configuration and wireless connection mode. A little suggestion is that the setting of the Taijie System UI is simple and pure, but in some aspects it is a little bit "skinny". I hope that Taijie can do more in terms of details and humanization, and it will have overall function and operation. The details are rich and perfect, giving users a better experience.
