MECOOL KM2 Plus, new Android TV-Box with Netflix 4K and SoC S905X4

The Mecool brand has just introduced its new Android TV-Box called MECOOL KM2 Plus. A hardware similar to the previous Mecool KM2 manufactured by Skyworth that is licensed by Netflix to be able to offer content in 4K.

This Skyworth box rebranded by Mecool has Android TV 11 certified by Google, integrated Chromecast and a Bluetooth remote with microphone included for Google Assistant and certified by Netflix 4K. The remote offers us direct access keys to applications such as Netflix and Prime Video, we can also install Disney+ and HBO Max among other apps. A Box that can be an alternative to the obsolete Xiaomi Mi Box S already outdated, has better SoC, better connectivity and doubles its available storage memory to 16 GB. Although Mecool updates are not usually many and today we have other interesting alternatives at a similar level.

This new Box is powered by the powerful Amlogic S905X4 SoC, see more details in our review.

MECOOL KM2 Plus Specifications

The Smart Box Mecool KM2 has an AMlogic S905X4 SoC, a Quad Core manufactured in 12 nm. A chip with low power consumption ARM Cortex-A55 processors that theoretically reach 2 GHz speed. It integrates a mid-range Mali-G31 MP2 GPU that allows us to play several demanding titles within the limitations of Android TV.

The VPU offers us AV1 decoding support, it also includes HDR, HDR10 and HLG support, although in this case it does not have Dolby Vision.  In terms of audio, it supports up to Dolby Atmos officially.

It has 2 GB of DDR4 RAM and 16 GB of eMMc storage that we can expand with a micro SD card reader that we find between the connectors.

Other features

In terms of wireless connectivity we have Wifi aC 2T2R dual band and Bluetooth 5.0. The included connectors are a USB 2.0, another USB 3.0, AV connector, IR jack, Ethernet 10/100 and an HDMI 2.1 video output with support for up to 4K@60fps resolutions.

As usual will be included HDMI cable, Bluetooth remote control with integrated microphone to use Google Assistant and power supply to be able to use this Smart Box from the first moment.

Price and availability

  • The Mecool KM2 TV-Box can be purchased on Aliexpress for $94 with free shipping included, an inflated price compared to the competition that we assume will drop soon.

Yeah you can buy this one or something that’s going to be supported from Amazon, Google or Xiaomi.
Yes these companies might push some stuff with their products but at least you get support.
If you don’t care about Netflix and all these things and are fine with some of your own DRM free content there’s much cheaper boxes with the same SOC.
So all in all yes, pointless, moving on.
