Me 5.1 Smart Wireless Home Cinema from Starloop brand is a wireless 5.1 home theater system based on Android OS and powered by Realtek RTD1296 chipset.
Wireless or wired home cinema?
This is quite a fundamental question. If you have space or a dedicated room, the wired connection certainly does not matter to you. However, in smaller rooms, or when you do not want to have cables in your living room, you want it to look more aesthetic, a wireless system is a right choice. Although the wired connection seems to be more stable as always, with the current solutions and technologies, the wireless connection does not have to give way in terms of sound quality.
