hey what's up guys I'm Chigz and you're
watching Chigz Tech Reviews
today I've got my hands on another brand new
Android TV box so this is the Probox2
Air Plus Android TV box so this is their
latest model and it runs an octa-core
processor 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 cpu running at two gigahertz
you've got the Mallee 820 running at 750
megahertz
you've got three gigs of DDR for RAM 16
gigs of internal storage dual band Wi-Fi
supporting BGN and AC Bluetooth version
for Android version 6 marshmallow
supports Ultra HD 4k videos at 60 frames
per second supports HDR 10 + h LG HDR so
this is everything you get in the box so
if we begin with the instructions you've
got an instruction manual for the remote
plus you've got another set of
instructions and stuff here so that's
all good
this also comes with a HDMI cable a UK
power adapter okay the wireless antenna
here and you this also comes with two
remote control so first of all you've
got the standard remote yeah
full-featured remote control with loads
of shortcuts and stuff and we'll see how
we get on with this so this also comes
with it so this is the pro box - Remote
Plus and it's their signature remote it
comes with it it takes only two triple A
batteries and it's a mouse so you use it
with the dongle you've got a USB dongle
here you plug this into the box and this
will give you great functionality you've
even got a mic built in so you can do
voice search but if you tilt this to the
right this turns into a gains controller
so I will be testing this out and I'll
give you guys my feedback at the end
okay last but not least the actual pro
box - err plus Wow
I've reviewed their previous model and I
have to say that was a very well-made
awesome product now this one this one
actually feels even better
it's very premium quality the feel of it
is just solid it feels so good in the
hands so you got a matte finish here
with a nice shiny no the pro box - at
the front you've got an LED indicator
light and on the right you have the
Wi-Fi antenna which I will just screw it
in very quickly that is it now on the
back of the unit you've got a power
socket a USB port HDMI port you've got
the network LAN port an s/pdif optical
connection if we keep going we've got a
USB port and a micro SD card slot and
we're back to the front of the unit this
is what the bottom looks like so this
feels like a quite a small unit I bring
in the TX 5 Pro and we can quickly
compare this this will give you an idea
of the size okay this is smaller than
the TX 5 Pro cool and that's roughly the
same size and thickness I hope that
gives you an idea of the size so I'm
going to hook this up to my TV and we're
going to find out how well this box
performs
so here is the home screen for the probe
look there - what I wanted to show you
guys straightaway was this remote plus
it's a standard looking remote control
but it's got an added benefit of an air
mouse if you hit this button here and if
you see on the screen there's an air
mass you just wave around similar to how
the Nintendo Wii works you can select
anything you like with the red button
and it was selected so this remote
control is actually very easy to use and
it will enhance your user experience so
here is the home screen and as you can
see you've got all of these shortcuts
here on the left first of all if I click
it it will open up Media Center so it's
their version of Kodi and it runs on a
back-end of Kodi 16.1 Jarvis now you've
got a shortcut here for Google Play and
you've got a task killer when you press
it it would just kill all the tasks that
you have open so you have a custom
shortcuts here all of these shortcuts
can be edited so what you do is you
click on it and it's already going to
have some apps on this for example
Netflix and Kodi already on there you
can press the plus sign you can add and
remove more apps from here so if I go
back the same applies to favorites same
applies to all the rest of these icons
if we go into the app drawer these are
all the apps currently on the system I
have not installed anything yet this is
what you get as standard so you can see
you've got quite a few useful apps on
there but you have the Google Play Store
and you're free to download thousands of
games and apps for free from the Play
Store so let's go back you have a
shortcut bar at the bottom again you can
customize these and you can add all your
favorite apps and as required another
thing I like to show you about this box
is it has two different home screens so
this is your first main home screen that
I just showed you if you click on here
you have something called the pro box 2x
launcher so if I click it this is what
it looks like so it's more of a remote
control multi media orientated home
screen some people may find these big
icons are more easy to use so yeah at
least you have the option
it's fully functional it gives you
access to all the apps and all the
features but with the icons much larger
so easier to see okay and if you click
on the home button on the remote you'll
be taken back to the original home
screen so you have an option there which
is good so the first thing I'm going to
be testing is playing 4k videos from a
USB Drive so I've plugged in my USB
Drive and I'm going to open Kodi Media
Center these are my 4k video samples I
have a few HD trailers in here as well
so let's begin the first 4k video
in
so there you have it guys that was the
4k video samples from Cody now I'm going
to move on to a youtube test so I'm just
going to set the quality to 1080p and
then we're going to play these videos
Sup guys I'm Chigz and you are watching
Chigz Tech Reviews
and today I've got my hands on an awesome looking 2 in 1
laptop which has the same screen used in
the latest 2017 Microsoft Surface book
but this one of them in the world inside
your phone for everyone is expected to
air one way their whole life how my
machine and I'm supposed to be a man and
masks look here my problem is I have
more than one emotions like this out huh
please tell me you weren't laughing just
now
all of human history
as lead for this mom so that was a
YouTube test let's move on now to some
gaming test so I've just gone ahead and
installed all my favorite games and apps
we're going to proceed with the gaming
test and we're going to begin with Real
Racing 3 so 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
in this game I'm using the Remote Plus
as a controller you just tilt it
horizontally like I have and you press
the game controller on and you see that
I'm paying okay and it works really well
quite comfortable so I am using my hotel
broadband and as you can see so this TV
box has achieved a total download speed
of twenty point three five an upload
speed of twenty six point three eight
megabits per second the pro box to air
plus has achieved a total benchmark
score of forty thousand four hundred and
thirty nine so let's see how that
compares to 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
there you have it the pro box two air
plus has gone into position eight with a
total benchmark score of forty thousand
four hundred and thirty nine 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 pro box
two air plus TV box
I'm quite impressed with the build
quality and I absolutely love the
interface this TV box has two custom
launches included and I love the layout
and customization options for the
shortcuts
both remote controls that come with this
package are absolutely amazing but the
one that stands out for me is definitely
the remote plus the remote plus is an
amazing remote control it actually is
very responsive it doubles up as an air
mouse and you can also use it as a game
controller
I really enjoyed using this and the best
thing about this controller is you can
use it on any Android TV box this is
probably the best air mouse I've ever
used with an Android TV box I was able
to play 4k video streaming HD movies and
play a number of games and everything
was a very smooth and enjoyable
experience that being said I would leave
the links in the description for you
guys to check out and if you liked it
you can go ahead and purchase one for
yourselves I hope you enjoyed the video
and found it useful thank you so much
for watching and I hope you all have a
brilliant day
