Best Android TV Boxes

While gaming is definitely one of the highlights of this Android TV box, it is far from all you can do with it. In fact, this box is extremely flexible in its capabilities, giving you access to virtually all streaming services, meaning that any online service that you subscribe to should be accessible through this device. That includes access to the Google Play store, where you have access to thousands of different games and apps that all give you an unprecedented number of entertainment options. You can find apps for virtually every streaming service possible, as well as for other services that most other media streaming devices don't.

Controlling the device is quite easy, thanks in large part to the included remote control, which has large buttons that are all clearly marked. For those who utilize voice assistants such as Google Assistant or Alexa, the built-in microphone lets you control the device completely hands-free. A number of other features are also included in this Android box, including the Chromecast technology for streaming the contents of a computer screen to your TV (and vice-versa), and the Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos technologies, which enhance the audio and video quality of any content streaming on the device. With all of these features included together, this Android TV box is simply one of the best devices on the market.

Although the RAM and internal storage are on the low end of most Android TV boxes, the rest of the specs easily make up for whatever shortcomings it might have. This box features full 4K support, making it capable of giving you superb video quality even on a high-end 4K television. What's more, the built-in 802.11ac wireless adapter gives you exceptional network performance, ensuring a smooth streaming experience even with the highest quality video. Even the built-in Chromecast functionality will work well here, allowing you to stream content from any Chromecast-equipped device in your house to your TV.

Plenty of other features can be found in this box as well. In regard to connectivity options, this device has plenty, including built-in Bluetooth 4.1, as well as an HDMI2.0a port for outputting video to your TV. A USB 2.0 port lets you connect various devices as well as additional flash storage for file transfers, and an audio output port lets you output audio to your sound system. The included remote control, like many other similar devices, includes a built-in microphone for voice control of the system, giving you a true hands-free experience. At the end of the day, whether your TV only has basic smart functionality or none at all, this Android TV box will be the perfect upgrade for those who want great streaming compatibility.

As for how this device performs, we can say that most users should be quite happy with the experience. Despite the small size of the device, the internal components match very well with most other streaming boxes in its category. To specify, they give users enough memory to be able to switch smoothly between apps, and just enough storage to allow for downloading custom apps through the Google Play store. All of this is possible thanks to the Android 10 operating system which the device uses, giving users a powerful yet easy-to-use interface that performs well on the given hardware.

Plenty of other features are also provided here. For instance, this device features easy TV connection that allows you to set it up in a matter of just a minute, as well as mobile support for linking it with your mobile devices. This means you can control the unit as well as playback media from your mobile devices without needing a physical connection. The unit also includes a Bluetooth module that lets you connect multiple devices to the unit, including speakers and even game controllers, so the lack of physical ports should be a non-issue for most people. All told, this small device packs in a ton of functionality, and provides a pleasant user experience that will work great in any home entertainment center.

Looking at the interfaces, the model incorporates a Wi-Fi module that supports the 802.11ac standard, a Bluetooth module, an HDMI input, an Ethernet port, two USB 2.0 ports, an AV output, and a slot for Micro SD cards. While there's nothing unique about this lineup, the BT 5.0 module will let you connect mini keyboards and headsets without worrying about the delay. Other than that, the AV port will also enable pairing this device with CRT TVs. The Micro SD card slot will work fine but, considering the 32GB ROM setup, there's a pretty good chance that you won't even need the slot since 32 gigabytes cover the basics with relative ease, letting you install more games and apps than most people use.

On the playback front, the model enables 6K playback at 30 fps, futureproofing the box. Of course, since very few TVs nowadays have arrived at the 6K resolution station yet, you can also go with the 4K at 60 fps option.

In closing, if you want to futureproof your setup with an attractive-looking device, you cannot go wrong with the T95 Android TV Box. With its Android 10.0 OS, this box offers improved user interface and user experience.

One area where this unit really stands out from the others is in the physical aspects of the device. First off, you'll notice that although this box has a larger footprint than some others, it more than makes up for that with its flashy appearance as well as in some other things that it offers. One thing that is most often missing on most other streaming boxes is some kind of display on the unit itself. But this one includes an LED screen with a digital clock, making it appear more like an older VCR or DVD player rather than a modern streaming box, yet without taking up so much space.

Another thing that this unit includes, and many others leave out, is the wide variety of ports. In addition to the standard HDMI out port, you also get two USB ports, allowing you to connect external devices and letting you access just about any kind of media that you already have stored on a hard drive. You also get an Ethernet port for a wired connection so that you don't have to rely on spotty Wi-Fi behavior, as well as an SD card slot for more stored media options.

One area that could use some improvement is the device's performance when it comes to navigating through the interface, although this unit does make up for it, thanks to the included remote keyboard with backlit keys and a touchpad interface. 

To sum it all up, this device proves users with a flashy and flexible design combined with smooth video playback performance, which is pretty much everything that one could want in a home media box.
