Kai Bor H9 Smart Network TV set-top box all metal local gold body

Kaibor H9 intelligent network TV set-top box is Kaiboer recently launched and sold in July 30th, a smart Internet TV box, and open in front of many models of open Bor, Kai Bor H9 uses a full-metal body design. In terms of hardware configuration, the opener F9 is equipped with a rugged, high-performance Rk3368 64-bit eight-core processor with excellent performance. This time we hdpfans also received the open Bor H9 prototype. Next, we will take a look at the detailed experience of Kaibor H9!

1 appearance:
Kaibor H9's box in front of the evaluation of the open Bor, F2, open Bor M10 and the same white tone, the middle of a big bronzing "1", which is the open Bor intelligent network set-top box of various labels. The other side of the box is the basic equipment information of some KBolle H9. Take out the open Boer H9 mainframe, the box as a whole Founder, fillet corner transition, whole body local gold, body material is metal:

Out of the box

Details of the fuselage, the top is open BOR's LOGO, the front is infrared receiver and power indicator, power is blue. The bottom four corners are arranged with 4 non-slip mats, and the middle is 3C certification. On the back is the interface location, open Boer H9 interface has 5V/2A DC port, HDMI2.0 output port, network port, USB2.02, reset hole and AV interface. The Kaibol H9 uses the same external antenna as most open-bowl network set-top boxes. Accessories, Kaibor H9 configuration learning infrared remote control, surface metal wire drawing processing, power supply requires two batteries on the 7th, the Power Adapter output power of mainstream 5V/2A. In addition there are HDMI2.0 lines and product specifications, etc.:

Comments: Most of the other series and Kaiboer use different engineering plastic materials, open Bor H9 uses a gold-colored metal body, improve a lot of machine texture, body interface.

2 hardware configuration:
Kaibol H9 main control chip is Rockchip RK3368 64-bit eight-core processor, the processor is equipped with a 28nm process and eight Cortex-A53 cores that can run simultaneously at high load, using octa architecture, operating frequency is 1.5 GHz. The biggest highlight of the RK3368 is its support for 64-bit operations, which doubles the width of the processor's data stream and has more powerful data processing capabilities. In addition to this, compared with 32-bit processors, the advantages of 64-bit processors are also reflected in the system's memory control. 32-bit ARM processors have an addressing space of up to 4 GB, making large-scale data processing programs that require large amounts of memory appear to be stretched at this time, creating a bottleneck for operational efficiency. Supporting 64-bit RK3368 processors will be able to completely solve the bottleneck that ARM processors are currently encountering in 32-bit computing systems and can support larger-capacity memory. In addition, RK3368 is the second chip that supports 4Kx2K real-time hard solution H.265 after RK3288, and can really realize 4K video output. At the same time, a new H.265 transcoder technology was introduced. Mainly for high-definition video multi-channel real-time transcoding service, various formats of input video can be transcoded into H.265 format video output in real time. Including the RK3368, RK3288 main flagship chip program, Rockchip will also embed the technology in all its chips.

RK3368

On the memory, the memory combination of the open Bor H9 is still the combination of the mainstream 1GB storage and 16GB storage space. Unfortunately, Kaibol does not support TF card expansion. Other aspects of the opener H9 support Bluetooth, you can connect a Bluetooth remote control to achieve a full range of remote control, connect the Bluetooth controller and Bluetooth audio to increase the open Bor H9 playability. The Kaibol H9 in WiFi does not support the advanced 802.11ac protocol.

Kai Bor H9 detailed parameters

Next, we still have to take a look at the results of the opener H9's H9. For reference only, in particular, the open-boll H9's factory-rated resolution is 1080P, so the security Bunny Run points are tested at 1080P resolution. Some set-top boxes support 1080P output, but the factory rated resolution is 720P. Even if it is adjusted to 1080p, the security Bunny still runs at 720P resolution:

Running points

Comments: Rockchip RK3368 processor is equipped with 28nm process and eight Cortex-A53 cores that can run simultaneously under high load. Compared with most of the box chips in the past, the advantage is very obvious, especially The powerful Cortex-A53. I believe there will be a very good performance in terms of performance.

3 system evaluation:
Turn on the power, open the Bor H9 boot animation in addition to display its own brand LOGO, there is based on Android 5.1.1 custom KIUI, and no other. Into the system, a simple network settings to enter the home page, open Bor H9 and previously used Bor Alibaba Cloud OS layout is still very different, this time open Bor H9 itself does not bring video resources, the home page is only a screen, layout interface The top is a one-button acceleration, WiFi connection and so on. In the middle is an application shortcut, with time, weather, and application recommendations on the left and right, and DOCK docking on the bottom, with TV, video, and settings on it:

Main interface

The middle application shortcut can be changed by pressing the menu key:

Sidebar

The KIUI adopted by the KBolle H9 has evolved through 7 generations. Now it seems that all resources are more preferred by the users themselves. Therefore, the KBolle H9 does not carry ready-made video resources. The TV, video, or applications on the DOCK need to be downloaded by users. Your favorite APP to achieve the fill of resources, such as click on the TV, call out only a new DOCK half a ring, HDP live broadcast on top of a live broadcast software, which users like to download your own hands, selected in the details The individual APP fonts appear ambiguous, and these several APPs are fixed on the DOCK and cannot be changed. We hope to fix the fonts and add DOCK custom functions after the subsequent versions:

The same is true for the application market. The 360-media assistant installation page pops up in the open application market, and there are only 360 TV assistants. The video is similar to the above TV:

application

"My application" uses life, audiovisual, etc. to classify all applications, border animation and transition animation are very beautiful:

All applications

The setup interface is the Android 5.1.1 native interface, there is no secondary development of the set-top box, mainly talk about the resolution adjustment, the first boot resolution can not be covered with the screen can be adjusted in the display:

Settings

Comments: Kaibol H9 system returns to the Android camp, the main interface finally has no land occupation and practical shopping page. After seven generations of evolution, KIUI is also considered to be a return to life. UI logic is simple and the layout color is pleasing. However, the settings and so on use native interfaces that are not optimized for the box, and there are too many secondary menus. In the end, it is the practice of letting users completely dominate the resources themselves. Although there are some blunt places, the evaluation king still wants to praise this approach.

4 Local playback:
Since the KBolle H9 is equipped with a rugged RK3368 64-bit eight-core processor with strong native resolution, it is sure to play well. The next step is to test the local playback capability. The test uses the system's own player. Look at the local file manager. The local file manager is the local media: the file manager supports browsing of local storage, network neighbors, and USB devices (displayed when an external storage device is connected). Network neighborhood playback is almost no different from local playback. In terms of display, the open filer H9 file browser supports long file name scrolling, file size display and creation date display:

File Manager

Enter the playback interface, the menu button to enter more options: 2D and 3D switching, if the resource itself is 3D, switching 2D is invalid. There is a subtitle function, only select to switch the embedded subtitles, can not change the subtitle font size settings:

Left and right 3D mode

The video of the test of playability will be tested from different bit rates, different formats, and different resolutions, etc., while the audio aspect is mainly for different format to play test, nonsense is not much to say, look directly Test results:

Different formats and different code rates

Comments: Playability on open Bor H9 is very good, all through.
