Significant price drop for the first Android Box we see with the new Octa Core Rockchip RK3576 processor, the H96 Max M9.
A recent chip that until now we had only found integrated in development boards and the like and now seems to be making the leap to the TV-Box. This is an integrated with 2 clusters where we find old cores such as ARM Cortex-A72 and ARM Cortex-A53, although at least they are manufactured in 8nm, nothing new under the sun. The operating system is up-to-date with Android 14, and we see that it has support for AV1, AVS2 codecs… and could not miss a 6 TOPS NPU for artificial intelligence work.
Of the rest of the configuration of the H96 Max M9 only note that as minimally differentiating elements includes Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 and a Gigabit network port.
H96 Max M9 Android Box Specifications
In the H96 Max M9 we have the new Octa Core SoC Rockchip RK3576 manufactured in 8nm. This chip has 2 clusters with 4 ARM Cortex-A72 processors that reach a maximum speed of 2.2 Ghz and 4 ARM Cortex-A53 cores that reach a maximum speed of 1.8 Ghz. For the iGPU this time we have opted for an ARM MALI-G52 MC3 and how could it be otherwise we have a 6 TOPS NPU for iA tasks.
For RAM memory we have options with 2/4/8 GB and for storage we find versions with 16/32/128 GB of eMMc memory. If we want to expand the storage, we will have to use one of the two available USB ports by connecting a pen drive for example.
Other notable features
For wireless connectivity, we have a good endowment thanks to its Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.4. The connectors are located on the back of its plastic case and are a SPDIF digital audio output, a USB 3.0, another USB 2.0, 3.5 mm audio jack, Gigabit network port and an HDMI 2.1 video output connector.
Power supply, HDMI cable and a remote control with built-in microphone for use with voice assistants are included.
