New version available in stores of the Smart Box HK1 Mini Plus that includes RK3318 SoC and that has been in stores for a few weeks. A new version that seems to include nothing less than 128GB of storage memory, an unusual amount and less in a box with a low-end chip that can be useful if we use it as a download center for example. The rest of the internal hardware seems the same and the OS continues to be Android 9.0.
Basic review
As a quick review we can see the estimated performance of the HK1 MINI PLUS in the review of a similar TV-Box. This Android TV-Box that can work as a basic player with KODI or IPTV even in 4K resolutions and can run simple games without too much demand of resources given its hardware. We must remember that these cheap Boxes do not have secured support and do not have DRM certificates with which we can only see Netflix in the simplest image quality.
