Đánh giá tanix tx6 và enybox x96 max
Tanix TX6 is the Android TV-Box of which we present today its analysis or review, a model integrates the Allwinner H6 SoC that offers us interesting specifications of connectivity and video quality. This TV-Box mounts in its box 4GB of DDR4 RAM, 32 or 64GB of storage and a USB 3.0 connector. Let’s see in our usual review how this device behaves and the potential of its hardware compared to other models in the sector. Show
PRODUCT DETAILSModel Tanix TX6 Basic Specs SoC: Alwinner H6 Quad Core Cortex A-53 (64bit) / GPU Mali-T720 MP2 / 4x ARM-A53 @ 1.8GHz / 28nm System: Android 7.0 (32bit) Ram and storage: 4 GB DDR4 – 32/64 GB eMMC – (4/32GB in Review) Network: Wifi ac 2×2 – Bluetooth 4.1 – Ethernet 10/100 Ports: HDMI 2.0a 4K@60fps / Audio Jack / 2x USB 2.0 / 1x USB 3.0 / MicroSD / Reset Extras: IR remote control / HDMI cable / Manual / DC 5V 2A adapter DescriptionThe TV-Box Tanix TX6 is a model with a classic design with a square plastic box rather small, in the upper part we have the logo of the device, in the front a display that indicates the time and that we can not turn off.
On a side almost hidden we have the microSD card reader, on the opposite side a USB 3.0 port, two USB 2.0 back, hole for reset, Audio jack, 10/100 Ethernet port and HDMI 2.0 compatible video output 4K@60fps HDR . In the lower part we have four rubber feet that raise the TV-Box minimally. ANDROID SYSTEMEnvironment and user experienceWe connect the Tanix TX6 to the current, it starts automatically with an animation and the front led panel lights up. We arrived at the launcher by default called Alice UX based square and it has three main categories, the first customizable in the bottom bar, the second with the list of apps and the third with the settings and different areas to add apps. On one side we have some quick accesses to the latest apps that we have run. A launcher customized to use with the command without a doubt although it is more of the same. The system has the lower navigation bar and the upper notification area. In this model the system moves correctly and quickly loads the apps, the Allwinner H6 SoC and the 4GB of RAM fulfill their function, the internal storage is fast enough to make the loading of apps fluid.
System, support and store appsRegarding the settings the Tanix TX6 It has a single menu of settings that has the classic design of Android. The Google Play store behaves normally and we can find the most common apps. The version of the system and the compilation of the kernel are not the last.
HARDWARE TESTSStorage and RAM MemoryWe pass our memory tests and internal storage in the Tanix TX6 using the SD bench app. As we can see in the tests, the internal storage speed is good, which makes the system show fast. We also have as a novelty with a USB 3.0 port that allows us much higher reading speeds than the classic USB 2.0 although the writing does not reach the maximum of this type of ports.
WIFI and BluetoothIn Wi-Fi connections, the Tanix TX6 TV-Box has a Wifi ac 2.4/5GHz with internal and external antennas and Bluetooth 4.0 with which we connect to an ASUS RT-AC1200G+ Router, a mid-range device. We perform tests on the use of streaming using the iPerf measurement tool to see the maximum performance of each network adapter.
Power consumption, temperature and noiseThe power consumption of the Android TV Tanix TX6 using the Alwinner H6 SoC it has the correct results in terms of efficiency. This Allwinner SoC only has a maximum consumption of only 6.5W. We check the performance of the TV-Box in scenarios of maximum sustained performance and in its usual use, we use a stress app for fifteen minutes and thermal camera to detect hot areas. As we have seen the Tanix TX6 has ventilation slots in its perimeter but occasionally suffers from some heat to put it to the maximum, the 28nm are noted although giving normal use this is not appreciable.
PERFORMANCE TESTSOCIn terms of power Tanix TX6 has very good results and leaves the Allwinner H6 Quad Core with processors ARM Cortex-A53 and GPU Mali-T720 MP2 in a zone of quite good performance. If we compare the results we can see is close to the actual S905X2 Amlogic SoC from the new generation at CPU level but lower in GPU. In general performance it is below that of powerful models like the Rockchip RK3399 that integrates the powerful ARM Cortex-A73 cores, in global terms a correct product by its price. BenchmarksGames and gamepadsFor the gaming aspect the Tanix TX6 have the Allwinner H6 SoC that integrates a Mali-T720 MP2 GPU, this model allows us to correctly move most Android titles without performance problems and good compatibility. The games with a high 3D load also move quite well and this GPU allows us to play them correctly in low or medium settings.
VIDEO AND AUDIO TESTVideo and audio connectionsIn the multimedia side the Tanix TX6 behaves perfectly using the Allwinner H6 SoC a product that has video output support for HDMI 2.0a that allows maximum resolution up to 4K@60fps with HDR information. We also have AV jack and stereo audio jack. In this SoC we verify that we have image quality settings with brightness, contrast and saturation, we also have several preconfigured quality and image modes. To modify these settings we must change them in the native player and the effects will be applied to all players either MX Player or KODI.
Video playback testIn our video playback tests the Tanix TX6 with the Allwinner H6 SoC we check that his VPU is compatible with most video formats, in the VP9 formats the native player behaves much better than MX Player or KODI , we recommend using them as the main system. This model is NOT compatible with LibreELEC. As the engine in the VPU we have the so-called Allwinner Phoenix 3.0 VE Engine a specific hardware that allows us to decode H.265 and VP9 up to 4K@60fps natively and on the other hand we have the Smartcolor 3.0 DE Engine that is responsible for controlling the HDR modes like HLG and HDR10, although it does not support Dolby Vision.

Audio playback testPassing the tests in the Tanix TX6 using a Yamaha RXV-577 AV receiver we check that they supports DD and DTS pass through sound. We can only listen to the multi-channel audio up to 5.1, if we do not have an AV receiver and we have problems to listen to files with AC3 or multichannel sound we must configure the system to listen to configure the system to listen to multichannel AC3 videos in stereo on any TV.

Streaming servicesWe pass the classic tests on streaming services to see how the most popular services work. In this model does not have certificates for these services. The Tanix TX6 model presents the classic configuration without certificates that limits us in quality in several streaming services, as it does not have notification bars, it also presents some classic problem of this type of configuration.
CONCLUSIONSScoreDESIGN AND CONNECTIVITY6.5/10 Pros
Cons
OpinionAfter review the Tanix TX6 we can say that we are facing a correct model and the Allwinner H6 SoC brings us interesting improvements in several facets. This TV-Box has USB 3.0 connector and interesting video decoding hardware that gives us good image quality using the native player. The system moves correctly thanks to the 4GB of DDR4 RAM and the firmware seems worked well thanks to Tanix and the Launcher Alice UX that improves on the basics UI we find in other similar models. In the Tanix TX6 we have two antennas for the Wifi ac adapter that despite offering a stable signal, the truth is that they do not give us a very high peak speed, other hardware components such as the remote control or internal storage remain at a basic level. This model at least has a firmware with navigation bars something that is appreciated for not having compatibility problems, we have not noticed closures of apps or problems in the settings. We are facing a TV-Box with a correct operation but has little more new compared to others in the same sector, you can compare this product with our recommended models to know alternatives. |
