Do not blow black, millet box 3S and Lynx Box 3 Pro who is stronger?

Millet's conference is naturally very trendy, but the product is still good or bad, such as the current mainstream product on the market - Lynx Box. The current main product of Lynx Box is Lynx Box 3 Pro and Lynx Box 3, not blowing or not, which one is more sincere? Let us compare it.

Lynx Box 3Pro

Lynx Box 3

Hardware: Millet Box 3S and 3C "Being Sincere"

Since it is an electronic product, the hardware configuration is always around. The millet box 3S is known as "total upgrade", the processor uses Cortex-A53, quad-core, 64-bit 2.0GHz Amlogic S905X, with Mali-450 3 +2 nuclear GPU, HDMI 2.0a, support 4K HDR. In memory and flash memory, the millet box 3S is 2G and 8G, which is 100% better than the millet box 3.

However, in order to more intuitively compare the performance of the millet box and the Tmall box, Xiao Bian simply made this picture, which looks clearer.

It can be seen from this that the quad-core A53 processor Amlogic S905X used in the 3S box is really good, but this is the existing configuration of Lynx Box 3. During the double 11 period, the Tmall Box 3 is only priced at 169 yuan at least, although the price is now restored to 229 yuan, still lower than the same processor configuration of the millet box 3S lower 70 yuan. The Lynx Box 3 Pro uses an eight-core A53 processor Amlogic S912.

In fact, at the CCBN show in Beijing in March of this year, Pan Zhaorong, Amlogic's vice president of technical support, made it clear that both chips can meet the needs of the market for 4K products. The S905X is mainly for the low-end market, while the S912 is suitable for the market. High-end product development needs.

In the memory and flash memory, the millet box 3S did 100% better than the millet box 3, but the 2G memory and the Tmall Box 3 Pro were the same, and the 8G flash memory was 100% lower than the Tmall Box 3 Pro. In terms of picture quality, all four products support 4K60 frame playback, but on HDR, only the millet box 3C does not support it. This is indeed a pity. After all, the Lynx Box 3 Pro and the Lynx Box 3 also support HDR.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that Tmall Box 3 and Tmall Box 3 Pro support 100M cable network, that is, can plug the cable, millet box 3S and millet box 3C does not support wired network according to "home tradition", may cause some inconvenience .

Comments: From the hardware configuration, the Lynx Box 3 Pro is undoubtedly better than the millet box 3S, and the price of the two models are the same as 299 yuan. Even if the Tmall Box 3 and the millet box 3S are less than comparable, the price of 229 yuan is also cheap. As for the millet box 3C, Xiao Bian can only say that it is relatively tasteless.

Content: Millet box 3S slightly better cat cat box 3 Pro

However, TV box products, although the hardware configuration is important but not all, the content is also a big one. The millet box 3S was released, and the content is also available for licensing. According to the introduction of Xiaomi Wang Chuan at the press conference, the breakthrough in the content of the millet box 3S lies in the access to PPTV poly sports, which brought about a 1.8-fold increase in the total amount of content. In PPTV Poly Sport, there are La Liga, La Liga, Champions League, AFC, China Football Association Cup, CBA and other popular events. In addition, the millet box 3S also introduced Tencent video, forming a content matrix of Iqiyi, Tencent video, Sohu video, Wah TV, PPTV.

Compared with the Tmall Box 3 Pro, the content is mainly the Hua Tu TV and Ali's Youku Potato, as well as their own Ali Pictures, Ali Sports, in addition to Disney, 20th Century Fox, Sony, Universal and other big-name film companies also have cooperation. In terms of sports programs, the core sports projects released by Youku in October include the CBA, CUBA, WESG World E-sports Games, CTTSL China Table Tennis Club Super League, NFL American Football League, UFC Ultimate Fighting Championship, etc. Sign in the Lynx box. In fact, the Lynx Box has always been the main concept of home entertainment. Children's content accounts for a large proportion, and more than 3.5 million minutes of high-quality, green, and safe children's entertainment and education content have been reserved, including Chinese, American, European, Japanese, Korean, etc. Many top children's copyrights in the country.

Comments: From the content, the millet box 3S is slightly better than the Sky Magic Box 3 and the Tmall Box 3 Pro. However, it should be pointed out that the member system of Xiaomi Box, because the content is distributed on various video websites, it is necessary to purchase multiple platform members to implement. The Lynx Box only needs one member account, no multiple payments, and Lynx Box members can share Youku PC and mobile members to achieve multi-screen viewing.

Special features: Artificial intelligence is new, but it needs to be observed

Finally, talk about "special features." Millet box 3S was defined as the first "artificial intelligence set-top box" by Xiaomi. Where is artificial intelligence reflected? According to Xiaomi, the system has been fully upgraded to the PatchWall puzzle wall artificial intelligence system. The changes are mainly in two points:

1, in the UI on the use of exquisite magazine typesetting and unlimited rolling content waterfall flow.

2. For the first time, deep learning technology of “Mi Brain” (Mi Brain) has been applied. It is possible to mark 80,000 tags for a movie, learn about movie critics and short reviews, and delineate various interesting movie categories. And continue to learn the user's habits, to achieve accurate content recommendations, so that "thousands of people have thousands of face."

Millet brains let Xiaobian could not help but think of Li Yanhong's emphasis on the launch of the "Baidu brain" ... ... highlights are also "thousands of people." Now that artificial intelligence is a “spirit” in the technology industry, Xiaomi’s grasp of this tune is still worth encouraging, and the actual experience remains to be seen.

How intelligent is the Lynx Box? At the Alibaba home entertainment strategy conference held in Beijing on October 12th this year, Alibaba Digital Entertainment released the Movie and TV Desktop 5.0 for the first time. The movie and TV desktop 5.0 user interface, big data application scene, and innovative design are fully upgraded. The video content and each user's operating habits will be highlighted. The viewing and viewing tastes will provide tailor-made viewing services and a seamless scene view. Shadow service. Specifically, there are the following characteristics: 1. Waterfall-style content is the desktop, 2. Scene roles are free to switch, 3, thousands of people, and so on.

Comments: Artificial intelligence in the millet box is indeed an attractive gimmick. According to Xiao Bian's understanding, the real “artificial intelligence” does not mean that you read a Tom Hanks “Dante Code” to recommend his “Da Vinci Code” to you, but recommend one to you. Big Fish. The intelligentization of Lynx Box not only stays in the screening of content, but also relies on Alibaba Group's big data resources to unlock data from partners such as Youku Tudou, Gaode, Taobao, and Alipay to provide users with more tailored services. Ali has long been on the artificial intelligence layout for a long time, so look at the Tmallbox movie and TV desktop 5.0 upgrade seems more worth the wait.

to sum up:

There is a saying on the Internet that "no harm without comparison". In fact, the release of any new product is indispensable. In terms of hardware, the millet box 3S and the millet box 3C are inferior to the Tmallbox 3 Pro and the Tmall Box 3, and the millet box 3S and the Tmall Box 3 Pro are also priced at the same price. In terms of content, the millet box 3S is slightly stronger than the Tmall Box 3 Pro, but it has not reached a big gap. In terms of artificial intelligence and other special functions, the millet box 3S has new meanings, but it remains to be seen, and it will be next to see if the Lynx Box will have any major action.
