hey what's up guys I'm Chigz and you
are watching Chigz Tech Reviews and
today I've got my hands on another brand
new Android TV box so this is the t9
octa-core Android TV box so as usual
I'll be running a series of real-time
tests to find out how well this box
performs so let's begin with the specs
I'll put the specs on the screen so you
guys can have a quick read so this has
the s9 one - octa-core processor the GPU
is a Mallee 820 you've got two gigabytes
of ddr3 RAM 16 gigs of internal storage
this has dual band Wi-Fi supporting BGN
and AC you got Bluetooth version for
Android version 6 marshmallow supports
Ultra HD 4k videos at 60 frames per
second
supports HDR 10 + h LG HDR video
processing so this is everything you get
in the box beginning where's the
instruction manual if I was a charger
there HDMI cable the remote control
quite a simple remote control and we'll
be testing this out later
and the key 9 TV box itself there it is
this is the t9 TV box if I just take off
this protective sticker you can see it's
got a lack of reflective black shiny
finish
you've got the t9 logo in the center
with the processor s9 one two there if
we look at the ports nothing at the
front so you've got a micro SD card slot
2 USB ports and what looks like a reset
holder it's got a reset hole if you keep
going you've got the power socket HDMI
output you've got the s/pdif audio port
your network from LAN port
you've even got an AV port and if we
keep going there's nothing there and
we're back to the front this is what the
bottom looks like so just to compare the
size like I always do let's bring in a
TX five Pro
so that's the TX bipro that's one of the
smallest Android TV boxes you can get
and I like to compare this to all the
boxes that come in so you can see the t9
is a bit larger all the way around okay
and in slimness and in thickness
I would say they're roughly the same I
think in thickness the t9 is a little
bit yeah
and in thickness the t9 is about a
millimeter or two thicker so that was to
give you an idea of the size so I'm
going to hook this up now to my TV and
capture card and I'm going to run all
the tests and we're going to find out
how good the t9 is
you
so this is the home screen for the t9
and as you can see this is a very
similar home screen to the hex 96 and
the 896 is a very popular box so the
layout everything reminds me of the H 96
home screen if we go to settings and go
to storage you will see you have 12 gigs
available to use from a total of 16 if
we go back and go into sounds you do
have Dolby Digital support on this which
is absolutely amazing
if we come back out of this you have
three large icons for quality YouTube
and Google Play Store the Kodi version
you have in the pre-installed on this is
Java 16 and we'll be looking at that a
little bit later so you've got settings
and you have all of these shortcuts here
including clean memory if I open one of
these you can see that it's fully
customizable again at the bottom you
have a fully customizable shortcuts
which you can add and change to suit
your needs so if we have a quick look at
the app drawer these are all the apps
you get installed on this system as
standard the only app I've installed
myself is YouTube I went and installed
the latest version of YouTube I left
them both on there so you can see the
old one can now be removed but basically
this is everything you get on the box so
yeah it comes with share box Netflix
Twitter Facebook etc and you also got
media center and miracast
you'll be able to screen mirror your
devices with media center and miracast
so if we quickly try miracast so I'm
going to start screen mirroring my
Samsung device and you should see it on
the screen any second now there you have
it so I've just screen mirrored my
Samsung phone and you can see that it's
working great I couldn't actually get
the Apple iOS screen mirroring to work
and the reason for that is Apple keeps
releasing new updates and it renders
this software useless afterwards so they
just can't keep up but I know the
solution to it you go to the Play Store
and you download a software called err
pin I'll put the links in the
description for it it's a free software
and they do have a paid version and that
software will allow you to screen mirror
your iOS device be
get iPhone or iPad and it works every
single time perfectly moving on now
we're going to run a 4k video samples
from a USB Drive and I'm going to do
this encoding Media Center so let's open
up Cody
this is Cody's 16.1 javis there's
already a build on here I've got no idea
what bindus is it just came with it the
first thing we're going to do is go to
files and test out the 4k video samples
so here are my 4k video samples I'm
going to go ahead and place us
what is this place who are you people
here are the bridge to a greater
understanding right
what did you
so those were the 4k video samples I
also threw in a 1080p trailer in there
as well let's move on now to the
youtubes test so this is my new bakit
wireless keyboard you can change the
lights to three different colors it's an
absolute amazing keyboard you've got
navigational buttons shortcuts a really
nice mouse pad multimedia functions and
a full QWERTY keyboard I'll put the
links for this in the link description
it's an amazing keyboard and it will
really enhance your experience on your
TV box
you

Aquaman so now again and can buy a
mechatronics body part he's a cyborg
where are you I've been looking all over
for you
- we need your help we're trapped by
this giant ant are you guys messing with
me because I find you a giant freaking
egg
I can push the air together water to
other stuff you thought you out of some
do I can teach you then zero so that was
the YouTube test and as you saw 1080p
played very well so now I've gone ahead
and installed all my favourite games and
apps the thing is I want to quickly show
you by show box show box came with this
pre-installed
I didn't install this so as you can see
it is the full version of show box and
if I just play a trailer I kind of
applied daddy's back what should I do
so what similar in emoji okay you cool
welcome to this secret book as you can
see the show box works great and it is
the latest version so let's move on now
to the gaming test the first game I want
to test out is Crossy Road
this is the game controller I use for
all my Android TV games this is the g600
controller I'll put the links in the
description box below so you can check
it out let's continue with the game test
so the t9 was able to achieve 14
megabits per second download speed and
14 point two eight megabits per second
upload speed I am using my hotel Wi-Fi
for this test so let's move on to the
antutu benchmark test so there you have
it guys the t9 TV box has achieved a
total benchmark score of 40 thousand two
hundred and eighty three so let's see
how that compares to some of the others
so this is my top benchmark performance
chart where you can compare all the
android TV boxes that i have reviewed to
date higher the score better the overall
performance so as you can see the t9 s
nine one two TV box has gone into
position nine with a respectful score of
forty thousand two hundred and eighty
three it will be interesting to see
which TV box i review next and what
overall score it will achieve i'm still
waiting for a box that can match or beat
the Nvidia shield stay tuned and
subscribe for more reviews like this one
so that was the t9 s nine one two
android TV box i had a very good overall
experience with this box it plays game
streams HD and 4k very nicely this box
also has the same awesome home screen as
the hates 96 so very easy to use and
navigate the books perform nice and fast
thanks to the 8 core CPU and I did not
experience any lag or crushes the remote
control included with this TV box is
very basic small in size but was very
responsive and quite good to use a great
all-around TV box achieved position 9 on
the benchmark performance chart with
that being said I'll leave the links in
