In early March we informed you about the new VENZ V12 Ultra TV Box from Venztech, and today we want to show you the unboxing of VENZ V12 Ultra Android TV Box. If you do not remember (below the specification) then we remind you that VENZ V12 Ultra is a new flagship TV Box from Venztech with 3GB RAM DD4, 16GB eMMC and well-known Amlogic S912.
