HK1 RBOX W2 a small Box with Android 11 and SoC S905w2

New Box based on the AMlogic S905W2 SoC that we find in online stores called HK1 RBOX W2 and that catches our attention this time due to its circular design.

Beyond its circular design, the novelties are few in the HK1 RBOX W2, since we are in front of one more generic box. Thanks to its Amlogic processor, we won’t have any problems using it as a media player, and we can even decode AV1 video up to 4K@60fps resolutions with support for content compatible with HDR 10+. As we have seen, this is a very interesting SoC within the cheap range as you can see in our Analysis, and it is basically oriented towards multimedia playback, running apps and streaming on IPTV.

As we always warn, it is not recommended to use this BOX to view payment platforms such as Netflix, since it lacks certificates to view them in maximum video quality, for this we have better options.

HK1 RBOX W2 Specs

Inside the HK1 RBOX W2 we have the Amlogic S905W2 processor manufactured in 12nm welded on the board. This chip is a Quad Core with ARM Cortex-A35 processors and a MALI-G3 MP2 GPU. This processor is enough to move the included Android 11, streaming apps, KODI, IPTV and some simple games in 3D load that, as always, the CPU is cooled by a fanless heatsink, so we do not have any noise.

In this device we have on the board versions with 2/4 GB of DDR3 RAM and 16/32/65 GB of eMMc storage memory. It also has a memory card reader in micro SD format that allows us to increase its internal storage capacity.

Other features

In the wireless connectivity section in the HK1 RBOX W2 we have Dual Band Wifi aC with internal antenna and Bluetooth 4.1. In the connectors section, on the perimeter of its circular box we have 2 USB 2.0 ports, HDMI 2.1 port, RJ-45 10/100 network connector and finally a reset button.

Among the accessories included, we have a simple infrared remote control, power supply and all the necessary cables to start it up right out of the box.
