ZTE ZXV10 B866V2K Certified 4K Streaming Box Features
B866V2K is a small media player with dimensions of 108x108x23mm. Inside we find the already well-known Amlogi S905Y4 SoC (Quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A35 processor with Mali-G31 MP2 GPU) with 4K AV1/HEVC @60fps decoding support. The same chipset can be found in many other streamers on the market today, including the MECOOL KM7 and KM7 Plus. Unlike MECOOL’s streaming devices mentioned above, ZTE Android TV Box has 2GB DDR4 RAM and only 8GB eMMC storage. Besides, the ZTE streaming player supports 4K HDR10+, HDR10, HLG HDR processing. In addition, the device supports Dolby Audio and Dolby Digital Plus.
Although the title of the offer mentions Dolby Vision, it does not seem that this Android TV Box supports Dolby Vision. If you need this feature in a streaming box, pay attention to models with Dolby Vision certification, including Homatic Box R 4K Plus and RockTek G2.
Apart from that, ZTE Android TV Box runs on Android TV 11 OS with chromecast built-in and Google Assistant support. Besides, as a certified streaming box, it supports all available streaming services (Netflix, Youtube TV, Prime Video, Disney+, Hulu, HBO MAX, Apple TV+, etc.) in resolutions up to 4K@60fps. The ZTE streaming device supports 2×2 MU-MIMO 802.11ac WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, and Fast Ethernet 10/100Mbps. Available I/O ports are in the picture below.
It is worth noting that, like most streaming devices, the Android TV Box from ZTE is also sent with Bluetooth voice remote control. It’s Google TV / Android TV reference design voice remote. Voice remote has dedicated button for Google Assistant as well as buttons for quick access to other content (Youtube, Netflix, Prime Video, and Google Play).
