Beelink SEA I like most TV Boxes from Beelink is well made. The housing is made of good quality plastic. Of course it would be better if housing was made of aluminum, but can not complain. On the top cover has a distinctive Beelink logo. The whole case looks very aesthetically. SEA I TV Box runs on Android 6.0, but the most important features are an HDMI IN with PiP (Picture in Picture) and DVR – video recording function. As we said at the beginning of his heart is a new Realtek RTD1295 which offers the latest generation HEVC/VP9 4Kp60 video decoding technology with HDR10 capability to deliver wider color range and greater contrast for an enhanced viewing experience. On the front panel Beelink SEA I has LED display, IR receiver with Power LED.
