As we await the release of new Amlogic SoCs like the S905X5M, we currently have the S905X4, which powers the new Android Boxput Q11 Smart TV BOX.
Boxput Q11 Smart TV BOX Features
The Q11 is a fairly well-equipped Chinese TV Box, featuring 4 GB of RAM, Gigabit Ethernet, and AV1 codec support, thanks to its Amlogic S905X4 processor. It runs on Android 11 and includes a customization tool allowing users to modify various settings, like the logo and preinstalled apps—one of its standout features.
This Android Box is well-suited for use as a media player, running apps like KODI, CoreELEC, or even for gaming and emulators such as EmuELEC. However, it falls short for premium streaming services, as it lacks the necessary certifications for high-quality video, despite shortcut buttons on the remote for those platforms.
Q11 TV Box Specifications
At the heart of the Q11 is the Amlogic S905X4 SoC, built on a 12nm process. This quad-core chip features low-power ARM Cortex-A55 processors clocked at up to 2 GHz, paired with a Mali-G31 MP2 GPU. The VPU supports 4K at 60fps, along with HDR, HDR10, and HLG.
