New Chinese Box that appears in stores with the name of G96 Max and that allows us to smarten our television if we are not very demanding.
A Chinese mid-range Box that has a small front LED screen and that at least already comes with Android 10 as the operating system. The G96 Max can be useful as a multimedia player by installing the KODI mediaplayer or to use all kinds of Apps including games and emulators, since the GPU that its Allwinner H616 SoC brings is not bad. To use it with paid streaming apps, it is not the best option, as it is limited to low resolution in most services as it does not have the necessary certificates.
