Haimeidi mango Q H5 4K clear box first evaluation

Haimei Di's ultra-clear box is a new product this year. Each new product has excellent quality and performance, and its positioning is different. It is welcomed by users. I was fortunate enough to be the first batch of new mango å—¨ Q H5 test users who will receive Haimeidi's upcoming launch. After a few days of trial, I will give you a simple evaluation.

Mango Q Q5 uses a quad-core processor. The machine has 1GB of RAM and 8GB of ROM, and is equipped with an Android 5.1 system. Support 10/100 megabit Ethernet, wireless network support WiFi 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n, support HDMI2.038402160 60fps output, support hard decoding 10bit, H.265 4K video.

First, packaging and appearance

Mango å—¨ Q H5 uses a full box of pure white design with the words "Mango TV Inside" and "Mango TV Custom" in the upper right corner of the box. The silver bronzing LOGO in the lower left corner of the box will have different color transformations at different angles. It will feel very technical and fashionable.


The appearance design of mango å—¨ Q H5 is rather special. The overall equilateral triangle design is silver and black with the right color. The corners of the triangle are very sleek. The silver aluminum top cover, and the fine concentric circular lines, show different light and shadow effects under the reflection of light, it is beautiful.

Mango Q5 H5 offers a USB 2.0 port, a 100M Ethernet port, an HDMI port, and a 3.5mm composite audio and video output. Because the H5 has a smaller body size, it does not carry a richer audio output interface (optical and coaxial).

Mango å—¨ Q H5 standard accessories are infrared remote control, HDMI video output line, adapter power supply. The appearance and function keys of the remote control look a lot like the Q5's four-generation remote control but are smaller and more rounded.



Second, boot settings

The Mango Q5 H5 is exactly the same as the Q5 IV system UI interface previously listed. Once it is turned on, it displays the icon of the Mango Q. The first time you turn on your phone is five steps: language settings, screen zoom, network settings, interface introduction, and completion.

The first step: language setting of course is to choose Chinese simplified.

Step 2: According to the size of the TV display, adjust the screen zoom by moving the remote control arrow keys up and down to ensure that the screen output is full and full.

The third step: the network settings, taking into account the playback of 4K video bandwidth and network stability requirements are relatively high, I use a network cable to connect 100M network port, routers do a DHCP automatic IP, mango Q H5 do not need to do what settings automatically configure Good network IP.

Step 4: The page image describes the operation and usage instructions of the UI interface.

Step 5: After reading the interface description, click Next and the settings for booting are all completed. Of course, only the first time you need to use the boot settings, then boot directly into the main interface of the box.

Third, system function

The main UI interface of mango å—¨ Q H5 is still a style used by Hai Meidi. The first line of the main interface is the popular recommendation of film and television; the second line is my game, multi-screen interaction, mango TV, music, one-touch direct, etc. The third line of application management, media center, play records, video search, system settings. Of course, the Android system can install applications on its own, and the newly installed applications will be arranged on the far right side of the main interface. You need to press the remote control to scroll to find out.

There are a lot of Android games pre-installed in the "My Games" section. Because there are already PS4 and XBOX360 game consoles at home, naturally these Android games are not of much interest. Just take a look. Users who have no home game console can still Play some Android games to pass the time.

“Multi-screen interaction” is a more practical function. You can scan the QR code on the screen with your mobile phone and use the WeChat to remotely control the box, and you can achieve popular on-demand and video and voice search functions. Video and voice search personally feel most practical, think about using the box's remote control to input Chinese to search, that is a tired word! Through mobile phone voice search, for example, I want to see Stephen Chow's movies, and you can quickly search for the programs or movies you want to see without typing. This is really convenient!

The one-touch direct function can set a remote controller's numeric key to correspond to a shortcut. After the setting is completed, the set program can be directly run by pressing the number key on the remote controller.

Mango Q Q5 built-in QQ music is an APP with wonderful music recommendation function. Supporting online music playback is the most content rich music platform in China.

Fourth, network on demand

Mango Q Q5 network on demand fully supports Mango TV. Mango TV provides various popular movies, TV shows, variety shows, animation, music, entertainment and other content.

The advantage of the box using the Android system is the openness. The Mango Q H5 can directly install the third-party TV version of the market: For example, a sofa butler, in the sofa butler, there are many on-demand broadcast programs suitable for TV use, download and installation is very convenient. Users of Mango Q H5 box can refer to the tutorial: Haimeidi Box H5 Installation Method Install a sofa butler to expand third-party applications.

TV Cat is a professional video app for Internet set-top boxes. At present, it is providing stable video and TV on demand, TV live broadcasts, TV viewing and other TV video services for millions of families. Provide more than 1,000 sets of high-definition live broadcast channels: CCTV, TV, local stations, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, sports, e-sports, etc.; more than 100,000 video on demand resources: movies, TV dramas, news, variety shows, children, animation, documentary, drama, etc.; 7X24 hours TV live broadcast look back: mainstream CCTV, TV, local Taiwan look back at full time.

Fifth, local playback
Local media playback is one of the most important functions for HD players. Next, it focuses on testing the video formats supported by H5, the decoding of high bit rate resources, and the source output of next-generation audio tracks.

Mango Q Q5 media center support 4K video, Blu-ray ISO and BDMV file playback, support H.265 hard decoding, support for network neighbors, SMB/NFS protocol, can read access to USB2.0 interface mobile hard disk or U disk Video, and without the help of third-party tools for decoding and manipulation, can play local 4K Ultra HD video.

First, set the audio output to “source output” in the playback settings to ensure that the Dolby and DTS audio tracks are output to the next-generation AV amplifiers for decoding. Set 1080P 24Hz to ON.

There are 4 NAS network storages in my home. There are 8 TB of NAS storage in the home. Movies downloaded on the Internet are stored on the NAS. All the boxes can directly access the NAS to play movies. Through the H5 media center, the network neighbor can directly discover the NAS without any settings, access the NAS movie catalog and set it as a shortcut access method. The next time, it is very convenient to directly access this shortcut.

Test Blu-ray original movie playing Dolby Panorama sound, I chose the "disc in the disc 5" this film, Blu-ray ISO format files, H5 easy to identify and play, but found no Blu-ray boot menu, directly into the film playback. 1080P Blu-ray original video playback is still good, but found Dolby panoramic sound track can not source output to the next generation of power amplifier, this time the power amplifier is based on two-channel decoding.

Next, Marvel's blockbuster "The Ant Man" tests the output of the next-generation audio track from the DTS-HD track. The H5 can correctly decode the DTS-HD source code to output the next-generation power amplifier. Several DTS-HD movies were tested continuously and the amplifiers correctly received DTS-HD source code and decoding.


Started testing H5 4K video playback capability. I am a 4K ultra-clear fan. In the past two years, I have downloaded a lot of 4K ultra-clear demo videos and used H5 to perform 4K video screenings. The results of the test currently can not be played except the 4K ultra-clear video (non-standard video format) of H264 10 bits. The basic playback can be smooth, and the H4's 4K ultra clear playback capability is quite good.

The following is a real shot of the TV screen of the H5 player 4K super clear video:



Six, evaluation summary

Mango Q Q5 hardware configuration is not very powerful, but as a 4K ultra-clear video experience box, maintaining the advantages of 4K video decoding, daily use can fully meet.

advantage:

Supports most of the native playback formats. The playback interface is set up to provide smooth playback of 4K 10bits H265 encoded ultra-clear video.
Fast operation response, simple and easy-to-use operation interface, and short use time;
Small size, beautiful appearance, the machine does not generate heat;

Disadvantages:

Only support 10/100 megabit Ethernet support, usually enough to watch the video, but for the playback of high-rate 4K video over the network, the effect will be worse;
The wireless network only supports 2.4GHz, so it is difficult to meet the bandwidth requirement of high-rate 4K ultra-clear video in the wireless environment.
USB2.0 is relatively backward, if there is USB3.0 will add a lot of color;
There are fewer options for image settings, and there is less room for image quality adjustment than Q5 Q10.

Smart TV/box information can focus on smart TV information network sofa butler (http://), China's influential TV box and smart TV website, providing information, communication, TV boxes, smart TVs, smart TV software, etc. Answering questions.
Sofa butler - smart TV must use the market, watch podcast video, live broadcast with small micro-live, more interesting content with Tencent video TV version, TV home, more TV necessary optimization tools to change the smart TV gameplay!
