This TV box is equipped with Amlogic S905 CPU and Mali-450 GPU, which means you will have a smooth experience when using it watching HD movie or playing game etc. 2GB RAM, 16GB ROM and 32GB maximum extend capacity will give you enough space to do your thing without worry about it. All in all, this TV box is a good choice for you to enjoy the joy!
Main Features:
● With Android 5.1 system, we will have high speed feedback and smooth response.
● The processor in this chip is a Amlogic S905 Quad-core with a maximum clock speed of up to 2GHz. Use the Mali-450 as GPU. Apps have never run so smoothly.
● Support dual band 2.4GHz / 5.8GHz WiFi, which offers you a more stable WiFi signal to enjoy a higher quality video experience.
● Support 4K x 2K ultra HD video, which brings us clearer image quality.
● Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity: Easy pairing with most Bluetooth-enabled devices (computer, mobile phone, keyboard, and others).
● Support H.265 video code, enjoy the high-resolution video even at a low-internet-speed environment.
● HDMI 2.0 connector: You can go directly to let your TV and Beelink Mini MX TV Box are connected through a HDMI cable and set up your home cinema for the best 4K x 2K Full HD multimedia experience.

*I'm using a 128GB MicroSD with my MiniMXIII, not sure about this box, though. Beelink apparently do quite a few firmware updates - looks like the latest firmware is 107L1, see Post #8.
This is the sort of thing I used to do when I was 17, I'm 45 now, what was more impressive to me about it was there was no Internet to get help from, just various magazines and books and most of the stuff you worked out yourself. Things are far easier to hack now with all the resources available.
I actually think Google has made us all dumber. Retain information? Nope just Google for it.

Just realised the Gearbest blurb I pasted on my thread opener post says "2GB RAM, 16GB ROM", pretty sure that's an error. This box is 1GB RAM. Didn't get a chance to read up on this box as it was around 1am when I posted, but I'll have a look at the links :smiley:
*Actually there's a 2GB/16GB version in the options, so that'll be why.

I'd sooner spend a few more notes and get similar with 2Gb RAM at least then it should run everything smoothly.
