Curious Box called X6 that we discovered today that comes with certified Android TV 11, Chromecast, Netflix 4K compatibility and loaded with thousands of retro games.
A Box that this time has the attractive Pegasus frontend for retro games pre-installed in the system, which is also accompanied by a 64 GB micro SD with 11,000 retro games and a pair of joysticks. A strategy to sell more at the cost of a frontend that is open source and 100% free.
For the rest, the certified Box X6 is based on the SoC Quad Core AMlogic S905Y4-B that will give us the necessary power to move any app and that this time includes compatibility with Dolby Audio and Dolby Digital Plus sound. Highlight its 4 GB of DDR4 RAM and its 32 GB storage, figures that unfortunately are not very common in this type of TV-Box.
