Pragmatic good choice - Skyworth Skyworth 55M1 4K use evaluation

Reasons to purchase

The 50-inch TV used for many years at home has recently been on strike. The reasons for the strike have been unknown for the time being and we haven't had time to repair it. Actually, for a LCD TV that has been used for more than five years, the price of large-size liquid crystal continues to decline. There is no point in sending or repairing goods. After all, it is not cheap to repair a TV in the case of over-protection. There are old people and children in the family, not a day without TV (I have forgotten how long I have not seen TV in the end), but taking into account the six months later will move, this time the house is sure to rent out, and for rental housing In fact, the purchase of more expensive electrical appliances is actually a very unwise choice. It is based on this kind of realistic demand that it was decided to buy a domestically-made TV with a suitable size (not smaller than the current one), moderate price (better than the best), and technology (4K, smart, HDR...).

After setting the direction, the next thing would be easier to handle. Soon, this Skyworth 55M1 entered my selection line of sight.

55-inch 4K ultra clear, high AI smart, equipped with 64-bit processor, 2G DDR4 running memory, 8G memory, 3840*2160 resolution (although my home to watch TV, do not have such a high resolution), about other The entertainment function does not have much attention, but is more interested in children's application functions. After all, there is a child at home who can not control himself.

In addition to the 618 cat's activity, it is necessary to make a reservation and pay the last payment, and you can also give a 300-card shopping card. The discounted gifts will be reduced to less than 3K, just within my budget. Decided to place orders.

The delivery speed of the machine is very fast, because Skyworth has a warehouse in Changsha, and the warehouse is not far from my home. The delivery man told me in advance by telephone that there was a TV set in advance. The delivery time was reserved and it was delivered on time in the afternoon. Came over. I have to say that the 55-inch package is bigger than the 50-inch package I used to buy. I carried it with the delivery chef and asked if I would install it.

Regarding the issue of hanging or directly placing it on the TV cabinet, I tangled it and finally decided to try it out on the TV cabinet. After all, the old one had not had time to remove it.

55 is really bigger than I thought. It's really a big screen.

After clearly stating that this TV set does not need to be wall-mounted, it is necessary to unpack the TV with the delivery master. After all, it is still necessary to be cautious about this relatively easily damaged appliance. It is understood that such products as televisions, if secretly out of the box, in the event of a broken screen Huaping situation, it is difficult to clarify the responsibility.

First confirm that the packaging is not damaged, and then remove the TV from the box together, plug in the power cord to light the screen, confirm that no cracking occurs, the inspection is completed.

Of course, for this step, according to Skyworth's official introduction, it is best to make appointments through the phone, WeChat public account, website, and other related channels. Therefore, operations like me are not worth recommending and learning.

The package is actually very simple, with a pair of bases, four mounting screws, a manual, a remote control, and a power cord.

It is very simple to install the base, place the base screw hole on the screw hole on the bottom of the fuselage, and then screw it on.

However, after installing the pedestal, it was found that because the TV was large and heavy, the small base seemed to be too hard. There were children in the family. To be on the safe side, it was better to hang on the wall.

The remote controller needs to use two AAA batteries. Worthy of praise is the soft connection between the battery cover of the Skyworth remote control and the remote control. The advantage of this is that it is not easy to lose the remote control cover. Think about my previous TV remote control. Devices, set-top boxes, remote controls, air conditioners, remote controls, etc. Basically, it is impossible to find a remote control that is complete. The battery covers are all missing. There are children at home. This situation is too easy to emerge.

The back of the Skyworth 55M1 is very simple. The upper part is designed to be relatively thin. All the interface parts are all in the lower part. The interface part is divided into two parts. The back part is plugged in with a set of analog audio and video output interfaces, which can give any audio and video input function. The equipment provides television program signals, HDMI No. 2 interface, and an RJ45 network cable interface for wired network access.

A set of interfaces on the side are respectively HDMI No. 1 interface, RF input interface for connecting an external antenna to receive analog signals and digital ground signals, and a set of analog audio and video input interfaces for connecting older playback devices without an HDMI interface. Provide two USB ports for connecting U disk and mobile hard disk and other devices, but these two USB ports can only provide 500ma current. For USB devices with higher power requirements, you need an external power supply.

In general, the external interface of the Skyworth 55M1 is not rich, and the two HDMI are often overstretched in practical use.

The whole power consumption of the Skyworth 55M1 is 120W. Generally speaking, the power consumption of the 55-inch LCD TV will be between 100W-200W. In actual use, the power consumption and the screen brightness have a greater relationship, and the brighter the screen is, the more power is consumed. Big.

There is a standby button behind it. This TV does not have a power switch. Therefore, if you go out for a long time, it is recommended that you unplug the power cord.

Behind the rack screw hole, wait until the home has been broken this TV is broken, and then hang this wall to the wall, after all, that pair of brackets is still relatively unpleasant to me.

The border used at the bottom of the screen is decorated with a champagne metal bar. The position at the bottom right of the screen is an LED indicator. It is bright red during standby and green at work.

55-inch LCD TV, 1 inch = 2.45CM, then, 2.45CMx55 = 139.7CM, 139.7 is the screen diagonal length, and then through the formula calculation, you can calculate the length of the screen is 121.76CM, width 68.49CM.

After measurement, the width of the Skyworth 55M1 is 123.5CM, and the height of the Skyworth 55M1 is 70.5CM, and the diagonal is 142CM. Therefore, the border of the Skyworth 55M1 is still relatively narrow.

Due to the design of the power supply section and the motherboard behind the rear fuselage, based on the considerations of heat dissipation, the rear lower part is designed to be more convex, and the thickness reaches nearly 9CM.

In general, the appearance of the Skyworth 55M1 is not surprising, and there is no special place for color, but the details of the ultra-narrow border design is still doing well, the official propaganda of the flying wing base floating design, in terms of stability Need to be further strengthened.

experience feelings

As a smart TV, the Skyworth 55M1 needs some settings when it is turned on for the first time. However, this setup process is very simple. You only need to connect to the network and enter the wireless password. You do not need to describe it here.

The Skyworth 55M1 is equipped with a cool open intelligent system. Based on intelligent analysis of big data, this system can form exclusive content based on individual viewing habits. In simple terms, users often order a certain type of program, and the system will automatically be based on individuals. The custom recommends more of this type of program.

The contents of the built-in system are relatively rich, but some of them require paid viewing. After registering and becoming a member, they can purchase various paid content. This is in fact nothing wrong with this. After all, in the increasingly intensive awareness of copyright, copyrighted programs have to be paid for. More and more users are accepted.

Through the "menu" button of the remote control, you can access some settings pages of the 55M1, including some TV settings and software settings. These settings are relatively simple, and most of the TV settings are not much different. The first users of the Skyworth 55M1 can also get started quickly.

I am more concerned about the "children mode", in this mode, the TV's built-in system can only display some video programs suitable for children to watch and children's games APP, so that you can avoid children as much as possible to reach a different age for them content.

For the test of the screen, I downloaded some test pictures on the Internet. The test of dead pixels and bright spots used pure solid black, pure white, pure blue, dark green, light green, azure, pink and orange red. The test results are as follows: Still quite satisfied, this screen is not obvious flaws, because my camera is a bit scumming, several pictures are completely riddled, so only pick a few photos that are not so confusing.

Then tested the 4K TV resolution, tone level reduction, color performance and viewing angle, 256-color gray scale, in general, Skyworth 55M1 color reproduction is pretty good, for an affordable 4K smart TV, I was satisfied with the overall performance. However, after all, I have never used a relatively high-end TV set, and I can't understand how amazing the performance of high-end products is, so I can't really make a very convincing comparison.

Tested with a static desktop image, the 55M1 performed well in both color and detail.


Using U disk to copy the video content into the TV's USB port can be played directly, but there is a 4K HD test clip downloaded from the Internet can not be played, the display does not support the format. Whether playing a local video in a U disk or a resource on the network, the phenomenon of ghosting on the screen is not obvious when playing a large dynamic video.

When the telecommunication IPTV set-top box at home is connected to Skyworth 55M1 through the HDMI interface, there will be a circle of dark shadows around the TV. After searching, I know that my set-top box is 2K HD. This will happen because of the resolution. It seems that it is necessary to change a 4K Ultra HD set-top box to solve this problem perfectly.


The Skyworth 55M1 official propaganda has an AI smart function. After downloading an app called “Cool Wizard” through a mobile phone, it is found that the TV system has been updated and another app named “TVP” needs to be downloaded. After the download and installation, it can be directly The TV is searched for in the APP. Of course, the premise is that the TV must be connected to the network and be on the same network as the mobile phone.

The APP can directly control various operations of the TV, and can also search and play video through voice through the APP's “press and hold” function, and can also use voice to control the TV and install some commonly used APPs on the TV. This feature makes the TV more intelligent and playable.

From the Skyworth 55M1 hardware parameters, this configuration is still quite satisfactory at the moment, the 3840*2160 4K LED screen, the angle can reach 178 degrees. 64-bit 4-core processor with MaliT720*2 3D graphics processor, 2G storage +8 G memory, for smart TV configuration is also pretty good.

Audio processing supports DOLBY decoding, and video processing supports HDR10 and H.265 (HEVC) 4K decoding. For the 4K era, HDR is one of its standard technologies. It can greatly enhance the picture quality of TVs, provide more dynamic range and details of images, make colors more vivid and vivid, details more clear, and better reflect In terms of visual effects in the real world, HDR is called "a truly important technology in the 4K era." The HDR10 is currently the most widely used HDR standard, the HDR10 media archive published by the Consumer Electronics Association of the United States, using the proposed 2020 color space, Perceptual Quantizer (PQ), and 10-bit bit depth.

Skyworth 55M1 supports SDR to HDR. Because of the scarcity of HDR content at present, the conversion of SDR to HDR is a very important feature of TVs.

to sum up

The first is that the price is really cheap, and for my actual needs, this price is perfect.

Appearance is relatively satisfactory, there is no special place, but also considered more patience; in the general pursuit of ultra-narrow frame today, for the 55-inch Skyworth 55M1, the border design is relatively narrow, as for the wing base Float design, well, I still prefer a wall.

In this price range, Skyworth 55M1 configuration is very good, whether it is hardware or equipped HDR10 and H.265 (HEVC) 4K decoding, and DOLBY decoding stereo surround sound, in the use of experience are satisfactory. The addition of AI intelligence can make use more interesting and more consistent with current AI trends.

In general, the price, function, and hardware of the Skyworth 55M1 are relatively balanced in all aspects and can be regarded as a good choice for pragmatism.
