So this box is a beast and 3D gaming emulation gaming. It still needs a bit of tweaking to improve its user interface and I see they have already released one update that fixed its root access and other features. To all my subtitle viewers subtitle in various language are now available for this video.
This tv box has a lot of bugs right now because it's too early to have rockchip rk 3588 on android tv boxes But this thing is powerful than nvidia shield
I suspect that the actual SOC inside will be the RK3588S, which is as powerful RK3588 but with different I/O options. The I/O on this box is poor for the price. I would personally get a Radxa Rock5B SBC if I am spending this money, with far better I/O and available storage options or, as I have done, get an Orange Pi 5 and save money but get the power of the RK3588 processor. The SOC itself is a big step up and with AMLogic nowhere to be seen with their own update, this will rule the market in the lower to middle ARM box/SBC categories for at least the first half of 2023.
Yes I own the khadas vim4(a311d2) and the Radxa Rock5b. The vim4 is a nice upgrade from the vim3 for sure. My Rock5b is still in the box because software installation is not straight forward and there are all types of complaints on the forum concerning this particular board. Rock5b I/o is great, it’s a great looking board that’s the chief reason I purchased it instead of firefly’s, khadas edge2 , banana pi or orange pi. Shame about complications though
Awesome stuff, and definitely worth a look in the near future right now I’m still bouncing between some awesome boxes that your ranking chart lists.

Have you also tested the new H96 Max M9 ? Thinking wich one is better. The new model or this model with RK3588. Mainly using Kodi and like to try some gaming.

I have some questions 1. Play store is full or like certificate TV boxes? 2. Do you know if that brand have updates for making better the box? 3. Your title writes 3568 not 3588. 4.The box i think has to have 2.4ghz clock and not 2.2ghz, am i wrong? 5. Only with Kodi will i have sound? 6. I want to use it for iptv, will i have hardware acceleration or software Thank you a a lot !
The play store is the Android TV OS version I am sure they will more update boxes in the future Yes I fixed the title thanks for the tip AIDA64 shows 2.2 No you will get some from all media players, you will only get surround sound formats via your AV receiver using the latest Kodi nexus I don't have an answer for that, IPTV it depends on what service your using or application. This box does not have a client ID or Xtreme codes interface so you are left with apps access only.
@@tvboxstop firstly thank you very much for your answer. Only one explanation about play, it has android tv os , that's mean that it is limited? Right?
Wow! Now this time the prize goes to H96 Max V58 for its power, fluidity and performance. Ugoos has even more support, features, configurations and customization options, but H96 Max V58 has an amazing monster hardware that can handle even PS2. Fantastic. A worthy rival for Nvidia Shield 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
In my dealing with TV boxes all these years 48°C idle speed is low compared to the average temperature of around 54°C. And with all that the CPU power I think is doing excellent in terms of heat management. Thanks for watching.
DVB-ts is a streaming box that has a built-in tuner to connect over the air digital antennas. This will require the box to have those conventional screw type connectors to the back. How that pertains to this box I am not sure.
For a microphone to work it must first be compatible with Android or as a special software to make it work. The AV port it does not support his feature the microphone has to be USB.
Great site, love your reviews. I bought this box and am pretty happy with its performance but it will not play certain formats in Kodi, namely certain x265 hevc (for instance 'megusta' releases) and others hang while using HW decoding (Mediacodec&surface) SW decoding works up to 1080p but plays everything. HDR isn't always activated either, you keep having to go back and activate it in the menu under HDMI. It also could not find my WIFI 5 network, had to select WIFI 4 on my router before the box saw the network. Shame the firmware isn't better...or getting updated.
Which is a better box between h96 max v58 or ugoos am6b plus or ugoos x4q plus or x96 x6 8gb? I like ugoos am6b plus but it runs on android9… is android 9 considered bad in 2023 So which one do you recommend?
The AM6B-Plus is the better model. Android 9 is the compatible operating system for this chipset and you would be surprised how much better it runs than Android 10 and 11. You have a lot of firmware updates to complete when you purchase this model. A lot! That is if they have not yet done it for you prior to purchase.
@@tvboxstop thank you very much for the reply! One last question! I am buying one android box tonight Which better ugoos am6b plus or ugoos ut8 pro? I will buy the one you recommend me :)
I recommend the new Amlogic AM8 5 Core 32bit mode similar to the AM6B-Plus ugoos.store/products/ugoos-am8 I am collecting mine for review on Monday. You should order now, this is the latest model. If you want 64bit buy the UT8 Pro Rockchip model - Thanks for using my links.
The resolution option you see in Kodi is not for playing movies or playing self hosted videos, that resolution is for the interface itself. For example. If there was a 4K option in the list and you set it to 4K, the whole interface will get very tiny and you would be barely able to see the Kodi menus. If you play a 4K video your TV will display 4K.
Its gaming performance is, but its firmware isn't. The Shield is Google certified running pure Android TV OS to play Netflix in HD/4K. This box cannot. Its firmware is also lacking a few popular features pending updates.
Yo tengo este dispositivo y también me compré el Nvidia Shield pro tv para compararlo con este y la verdad que en unas cosas mejor uno y en otras cosas mejor el otro, pero en resumidas cuentas gana el h96 max v58 la verdad, me ha gustado mucho mas!! El H96 lo tiene todo sin embargo la Nvidia Shield me ha dejado que desear...no tiene entrada de audio óptico, no tiene puntero en el mando, no se puede apagar el aparato del todo solo suspender (y si lo pagas del todo desde ajustes luego para encenderlo tienes que desenchufar la alimentacion y enchufarla), para emulación de ps2 los juegos van a tirones con el Aether sx2 y solo tiene 3gb de RAM y 16 de Rom. En todos estos puntos le gana de sobra el h96. El único punto que tiene mejor la Nvidia Shield son los certificados para poder ver multimedia en las plataformas q el H96 v58 no tiene y este es un punto negativo en contra del h96 porque es una pena que los videos en directo a 1080p se pixelan, no van fluidos al menos en Kodi, te pones un partido de futbol en 1080p y va a tirones en el h96, si lo ves a 720p va bien y esto es porque el h96 no debe tener en su software impuesto el dolby vision o no entiendo porque, a mas gente le pasa no solo ami. Si ves películas en Kodi en 1080 si que se ven correctamente aunque con un ligero lag casi imperceptible aunque para los mas exigentes molesta. Y todo esto no pasa en la Nvidia Shield porque el tema multimedia va perfecto. Aún asi con los pros y contras de cada uno me quedo con el h96 max v58, es mucho mas potente que la Nvidia aunque sin certificados multimedia.
Disfruté leyendo tu extenso comentario, comparación y experiencia de usuario de ambos dispositivos. Y esto simplemente confirma que debes elegir un dispositivo en función de tus necesidades, no en función de la marca y la publicidad. Gracias por compartir y apoyar el canal.
It has the Android TV OS version of the play store, not the regular one from the mobile version. This means you would have to sideload a lot of apps and games via APK app stores.
Why do I get bad Hulu screens when I play thru the Hulu App. All I see are Rainbow colors lines and patches with a bunch of green lines. It only happens watching movies and doesnt happen with any of the menus??
@@renesonse5794 UA-cam does have 8k native content online but most UA-cam players only support 4k max. My Sony TV is 8k but the built in UA-cam app doesn't support 8k and they haven't updated it yet to do it. The only way to get 8k into it is with a computer and a video card that can do it from the HDMI port into the one 8k port the TV has now, or possibly a media player or app that can do it loaded onto the Google TV app built into the TV.
Hello, first of all, congratulations for a great review. I liked it very much and it is very informative. I just bought this tivibox and an excellent question, how do you install UA-cam Mobile on this TV box? 9:14
You can simply sideload it from a pen drive by downloading the APK file on your PC or Mac computer, alternatively you can install the Aptoide TV app store by simply browsing to Aptoide, or you can install APKpure. In these app stores you can search for "UA-cam for Android TV" and install it directly from in the APK app store store. The same can be done for mobile version of UA-cam. You can also install "Smart UA-cam TV" that gives you the same features you're looking for

Hi. I am finding that the "dirty" Android 12 firmware being used with the all of the Rockchip 3588 / Mali G610 chipsets I have been able to test do NOT play videos in the Dolby Vision format correctly, as well as atmos issues. Do you know of one of these devises that will?
You can take one step backwards and try the Ugoos UT8 it can play all the formats running on the RK3568 and it has great updates from Ugoos the best - ua-cam.com/video/W7Mjo3ET-Jg/v-deo.html
What best streamer would you recommend for playing 4k Kodi movies smoothly, I don't need any gaming capabilities but decent sound and picture. Thanks in advance 😃
There is a huge difference and that is performance. A 64 bit Android box has to have the hardware and the performance to run 64-bit apps and games and not restricted to 32 bit. Also any 64-bit app or game will not be visible on the play store if it's 32-bit only. So with the 64-bit you get access to all these hi and games
Just a quick update. The housing is a very difficult to open it requires a bit of praying on the edges which will cause damage. So I will not be open it because I have intentions of selling it.
There are a couple of things you need to check. Are you using the direction pad navigate the box or are you using a mouse pointer. Try both ways to navigate the menus. You can also try plugging in a PC mouse and see if you can select resolution you want. Next it will be a firmware bug. Check to see if you are running the latest from updates. In the apps section open system update and check for available updates. Also under about check the firmware build information mine is 20221116.1404. If your firmware is prior to 2022 - 11 - 16 then your box needs to update the latest firmware.
What would you like to know more other than what I already showed in this video? Only to say that it's one of the most powerful 64bit Android TV boxes currently running on the latest Rockchip hardware. To view its pros and cons you can go to timestamp here 20:34

For the cost to performance of this box is rather disappointing , with the lack of widevine support and many other firmware issues a consumer would be better off using a last gen samsung cell phone such as a galaxy s20 and use a dock in dex mode would give you a lot better performance as well as the firmware is far superior and better yet would be much cheaper then this .

Box itself is awesome hacked software that tells it is a phone limits it terribly inside kodi you can play anything on say the plex app you will have basically no codec support. This box would be amazing if someone would just do a proper google tv port.
I was waiting to see if any manufacturer would take up the challenge but it appears that there's an issue with compatibility with the Rockchip chipset and Android TV. It was also brought to my attention that Google raise the the requirement to attain Google certification to run Android TV, making it very difficult for them to produce a certified model. So most manufacturers decided not to go to the trouble. Because every little detail down to the box it comes in at the be Google certified. imagine that! I have a friend who has been trying for the past three years going through all the necessary steps to get his Google certification to put out his very own Android box, only in the end to quit. This is due to one of the requirements that says in order to get your Google certification you must have a record of over 10,000 sales or something like that which to me is a bit ridiculous.
J'ai ce boîtier, cependant il n'a pas de DRM, n'a aucune certifications, donc pas utilisable comme une vrai Android TV. OS a pas mal de bugs, parfois je crash sur UA-cam en 4k60. Le processeur est très puissant. Mauvaises traductions dans ma langue (français). La télécommande détecte mal. Le Launcher pas très agréable.
Oui, je comprends, mais cette boîte n'a jamais été censée être un modèle certifié. Je suis donc également d'accord avec vous qu'ils auraient dû simplement opter pour la version mobile complète. La télécommande est une télécommande infrarouge et il est toujours conseillé d'utiliser une souris sans fil qui résoudra tous vos problèmes de navigation. En ce qui concerne les traductions linguistiques en français, je ne peux pas faire grand-chose ou conseiller car ces choses sont adressées par le fabricant aux mises à jour du micrologiciel. Dans l'ensemble, il a besoin d'une mise à jour ferme pour résoudre de nombreux problèmes, mais je garderai un œil sur les ROM personnalisées des meilleurs développeurs.
I own one, it seems fine at first look, but it's instable after 25M playing and frrezz something like Dreamcast , PS2, gamecube....It fine when less powerfull, no possible perfect ROOT, buggy with videos and DLNA, software on it it horrible and you cannot remove useless programs...Seems plenty of bloatware!
Freezing after 25 minutes of gameplay is caused due to throttling caused by overheating. This means you need to apply a cooling fan below the box to keep temperatures within safe levels. Believe me it will work.
That is subject to change as there is always nightly updates on the Kodi media player. So you can try uninstalling your current version of Kodi, and downloading the latest stable version, or nightly build.

Yes, that's the latest firmware indeed, but I just checked and am not getting that issue you are having. So only thing I can think of is a faulty mainboard. Try resetting the box to factory default settings and see what happens. If it continues you also need to check the power adapter to see if it's outputting the right voltage for the box or if it's faulty. You may need to purchase a replacement or some type of universal self-adjusting 12V 2A or 3A power adapter. I find the 1.5A this power adapter uses can be insufficient
I bought this device but the movie with format 2160p.ATVP.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.265-NTb, hangs and does not play the image fluently, I use mx player pro, I tried vlc player,do you have any idea of a solution?
@@tvboxstop I tried it with the built-in media player, it does the same. The format that gives me problems is like this Codec: MPEG-H Part2/HEVC (H.265) In SSD tests I have good speeds, close to yours in the video.
Try the 64bit version of Kodi preferably the nightly build version 21. In the settings area click on standard until it changes to expert. Under audio set audio channels to 7.1. Scroll down and enable audio passthrough and all surround sound options below that. Under video if there is the option to change from 1080p to 4K enable 2160p. And see if that works.
@@tvboxstop I did all the settings you said but the video does not appear to change from 1080p to 2160p, it works a little better than before, but still sometimes has when it is not fluent, I own Samsung 4K model TV: UE40MU6102 when I play the video and then go to video settings it appears like this video stream: undetermined (hevc, 3840x2160) (default) (1/1)

Yea that's always the down side with firmware updates on these X.... models
Awesome video. I ordered this box already, and I think it will meet my needs after watching your in depth review. What did you use to root?
Just updated to the latest firmware using wireless update and you will be granted root access
No SD card 😕
What Is the thermal when you play Ps2 games?
Around 75°C
hi! do you have any information if there is a firmware update on this box yet. I'm waiting for an update before buying it.
I checked it today and there are no updates
Which is a better box between h96 max v58 or ugoos am6b plus or ugoos x4q plus or x96 x6 8gb?
I like ugoos am6b plus but it runs on android9… is android 9 considered bad in 2023
So which one do you recommend?
The AM6B-Plus is the better model. Android 9 is the compatible operating system for this chipset and you would be surprised how much better it runs than Android 10 and 11. You have a lot of firmware updates to complete when you purchase this model. A lot! That is if they have not yet done it for you prior to purchase.
@@tvboxstop thank you very much for the reply! One last question! I am buying one android box tonight Which better ugoos am6b plus or ugoos ut8 pro?
I will buy the one you recommend me :)
I recommend the new Amlogic AM8 5 Core 32bit mode similar to the AM6B-Plus ugoos.store/products/ugoos-am8
I am collecting mine for review on Monday. You should order now, this is the latest model. If you want 64bit buy the UT8 Pro Rockchip model - Thanks for using my links.
¿Why the system resolution is 1080p in Kodi, and no 4k?.
The resolution option you see in Kodi is not for playing movies or playing self hosted videos, that resolution is for the interface itself. For example. If there was a 4K option in the list and you set it to 4K, the whole interface will get very tiny and you would be barely able to see the Kodi menus. If you play a 4K video your TV will display 4K.
Is this box better than the shield?
Its gaming performance is, but its firmware isn't. The Shield is Google certified running pure Android TV OS to play Netflix in HD/4K. This box cannot. Its firmware is also lacking a few popular features pending updates.
Would like to have the inside to see the cooling, and whether or not the storage is up-gradable.
The storage is not upgradeable for sure
Yo tengo este dispositivo y también me compré el Nvidia Shield pro tv para compararlo con este y la verdad que en unas cosas mejor uno y en otras cosas mejor el otro, pero en resumidas cuentas gana el h96 max v58 la verdad, me ha gustado mucho mas!! El H96 lo tiene todo sin embargo la Nvidia Shield me ha dejado que desear...no tiene entrada de audio óptico, no tiene puntero en el mando, no se puede apagar el aparato del todo solo suspender (y si lo pagas del todo desde ajustes luego para encenderlo tienes que desenchufar la alimentacion y enchufarla), para emulación de ps2 los juegos van a tirones con el Aether sx2 y solo tiene 3gb de RAM y 16 de Rom. En todos estos puntos le gana de sobra el h96. El único punto que tiene mejor la Nvidia Shield son los certificados para poder ver multimedia en las plataformas q el H96 v58 no tiene y este es un punto negativo en contra del h96 porque es una pena que los videos en directo a 1080p se pixelan, no van fluidos al menos en Kodi, te pones un partido de futbol en 1080p y va a tirones en el h96, si lo ves a 720p va bien y esto es porque el h96 no debe tener en su software impuesto el dolby vision o no entiendo porque, a mas gente le pasa no solo ami. Si ves películas en Kodi en 1080 si que se ven correctamente aunque con un ligero lag casi imperceptible aunque para los mas exigentes molesta. Y todo esto no pasa en la Nvidia Shield porque el tema multimedia va perfecto. Aún asi con los pros y contras de cada uno me quedo con el h96 max v58, es mucho mas potente que la Nvidia aunque sin certificados multimedia.
Disfruté leyendo tu extenso comentario, comparación y experiencia de usuario de ambos dispositivos. Y esto simplemente confirma que debes elegir un dispositivo en función de tus necesidades, no en función de la marca y la publicidad. Gracias por compartir y apoyar el canal.
Hi im not to up these things does it have official Google play store thanks
Great review
It has the Android TV OS version of the play store, not the regular one from the mobile version. This means you would have to sideload a lot of apps and games via APK app stores.
Why do I get bad Hulu screens when I play thru the Hulu App. All I see are Rainbow colors lines and patches with a bunch of green lines. It only happens watching movies and doesnt happen with any of the menus??

Can it play 8k UA-cam videos. I have a 8k TV and the built-in you tube player does not support 8k. Been trying to find a box that supports it.
OK I tried all the different UA-cam players and none are giving you the 8K option. I tested using the 8K Peru video and the highest is 4K 2160p
@@tvboxstop Thanks for the reply, guess I'll have to keep looking.
Pretty dumb my Sony 75 Z9K doesn't include the 8k player for UA-cam.
What 8k content is there???
@@renesonse5794 UA-cam does have 8k native content online but most UA-cam players only support 4k max. My Sony TV is 8k but the built in UA-cam app doesn't support 8k and they haven't updated it yet to do it. The only way to get 8k into it is with a computer and a video card that can do it from the HDMI port into the one 8k port the TV has now, or possibly a media player or app that can do it loaded onto the Google TV app built into the TV.
@@renesonse5794 if I had an 8K TV I would have compiled some 8K videos to test in my video.
Hello, first of all, congratulations for a great review. I liked it very much and it is very informative. I just bought this tivibox and an excellent question, how do you install UA-cam Mobile on this TV box? 9:14
You can simply sideload it from a pen drive by downloading the APK file on your PC or Mac computer, alternatively you can install the Aptoide TV app store by simply browsing to Aptoide, or you can install APKpure. In these app stores you can search for "UA-cam for Android TV" and install it directly from in the APK app store store. The same can be done for mobile version of UA-cam. You can also install "Smart UA-cam TV" that gives you the same features you're looking for

Hi. I am finding that the "dirty" Android 12 firmware being used with the all of the Rockchip 3588 / Mali G610 chipsets I have been able to test do NOT play videos in the Dolby Vision format correctly, as well as atmos issues. Do you know of one of these devises that will?

what is difference in 32 bit and 64 bit tv box?
There is a huge difference and that is performance. A 64 bit Android box has to have the hardware and the performance to run 64-bit apps and games and not restricted to 32 bit. Also any 64-bit app or game will not be visible on the play store if it's 32-bit only. So with the 64-bit you get access to all these hi and games
@@tvboxstoppeki, ben harddiskimi bağlayıp donmadan izlemek ve Iptv kullanmak istiyorum ugoos am8 pro mu yoksa 64 bit olan ugoos ut8 mi almalıyım.

Just a quick update. The housing is a very difficult to open it requires a bit of praying on the edges which will cause damage. So I will not be open it because I have intentions of selling it.
@@tvboxstop it's okay 👍🏽
How do I turn off the blue light on the actual box?
You can't turn it off sorry
I can't set the resolution to another resolution. Always is in Auto. ¿What's the problem?. Thanks.
There are a couple of things you need to check. Are you using the direction pad navigate the box or are you using a mouse pointer. Try both ways to navigate the menus.
You can also try plugging in a PC mouse and see if you can select resolution you want.
Next it will be a firmware bug. Check to see if you are running the latest from updates. In the apps section open system update and check for available updates. Also under about check the firmware build information mine is 20221116.1404. If your firmware is prior to 2022 - 11 - 16 then your box needs to update the latest firmware.
So no av1 hardware decoding?
No it does not

For the cost to performance of this box is rather disappointing , with the lack of widevine support and many other firmware issues a consumer would be better off using a last gen samsung cell phone such as a galaxy s20 and use a dock in dex mode would give you a lot better performance as well as the firmware is far superior and better yet would be much cheaper then this .

Box itself is awesome hacked software that tells it is a phone limits it terribly inside kodi you can play anything on say the plex app you will have basically no codec support. This box would be amazing if someone would just do a proper google tv port.
I was waiting to see if any manufacturer would take up the challenge but it appears that there's an issue with compatibility with the Rockchip chipset and Android TV. It was also brought to my attention that Google raise the the requirement to attain Google certification to run Android TV, making it very difficult for them to produce a certified model. So most manufacturers decided not to go to the trouble. Because every little detail down to the box it comes in at the be Google certified. imagine that! I have a friend who has been trying for the past three years going through all the necessary steps to get his Google certification to put out his very own Android box, only in the end to quit. This is due to one of the requirements that says in order to get your Google certification you must have a record of over 10,000 sales or something like that which to me is a bit ridiculous.
J'ai ce boîtier, cependant il n'a pas de DRM, n'a aucune certifications, donc pas utilisable comme une vrai Android TV.
OS a pas mal de bugs, parfois je crash sur UA-cam en 4k60.
Le processeur est très puissant.
Mauvaises traductions dans ma langue (français).
La télécommande détecte mal.
Le Launcher pas très agréable.
Oui, je comprends, mais cette boîte n'a jamais été censée être un modèle certifié. Je suis donc également d'accord avec vous qu'ils auraient dû simplement opter pour la version mobile complète. La télécommande est une télécommande infrarouge et il est toujours conseillé d'utiliser une souris sans fil qui résoudra tous vos problèmes de navigation. En ce qui concerne les traductions linguistiques en français, je ne peux pas faire grand-chose ou conseiller car ces choses sont adressées par le fabricant aux mises à jour du micrologiciel. Dans l'ensemble, il a besoin d'une mise à jour ferme pour résoudre de nombreux problèmes, mais je garderai un œil sur les ROM personnalisées des meilleurs développeurs.
@@tvboxstop Merci pour votre réponse et votre travail !
Nice!!!
Thanks!
I own one, it seems fine at first look, but it's instable after 25M playing and frrezz something like Dreamcast , PS2, gamecube....It fine when less powerfull, no possible perfect ROOT, buggy with videos and DLNA, software on it it horrible and you cannot remove useless programs...Seems plenty of bloatware!
Freezing after 25 minutes of gameplay is caused due to throttling caused by overheating. This means you need to apply a cooling fan below the box to keep temperatures within safe levels. Believe me it will work.
no update the device 1 year old software. poor support from manufacturer home page that goes through whatsup they never answer.

Yes, that's the latest firmware indeed, but I just checked and am not getting that issue you are having. So only thing I can think of is a faulty mainboard. Try resetting the box to factory default settings and see what happens. If it continues you also need to check the power adapter to see if it's outputting the right voltage for the box or if it's faulty. You may need to purchase a replacement or some type of universal self-adjusting 12V 2A or 3A power adapter. I find the 1.5A this power adapter uses can be insufficient
