Android TV boxes are increasingly getting indispensable in our life. It takes up most of our indoor entertainment life, and allows us to to watch videos, play games, and watch network shows on big screen. But how to choose an Android TV box, there’re 7 tips you can take them into consideration before buying a favorite TV box.

CPU
CPU, or processor, is a key element of Android TV box. An Android TV box that has at least a 1.5 GHz quad-core CPU or higher will bring a smooth user experience.

Memory & Storage
If the Android TV box doesn’t have enough memory storage to run the Apps, it will work very laggy. Since the operating system takes up a lot of storage, we recommend buying an Android TV box with at least 4GB of RAM and 32GB for storage. It would be better if it supports external storage of a micro SD card to expand the storage and install more Apps.

Video and Display Quality
With HDMI 2.0 you can enjoy 4K videos. 265 hardware is a high-efficiency video encoding, the standard to compress videos and makes it easier to transmit through the network. H.265 efficiently compresses pictures or videos that can enable support up to 8K resolution. The dynamic refresh rate switching should be supported. so the device can automatically adjust the refresh rate of the display.

USB and Other Ports
An android TV box should be equipped with 2 USB ports for Bluetooth receiver and peripherals. What’s more, USB 3.0 has an effective speed than USB 2.0 when transferring data. Other ports like built-in TF card for external storage or devices.

OS Version
Generally, Android 9.0 and above system is recommended to install new Apps or use updated functionality.

WiFi & Gigabit Ethernet
The Gigabit Ethernet is recognized as the best option for getting a smooth connection to the Internet. The device should also support 802.11ac for a fast wireless connection. Also, choose a dual-band router and network adapter to provide a faster signal to compensate for the slow signal.

Bluetooth
Finally, you should take Bluetooth into consideration, since Bluetooth technology has penetrated every aspect of our lives. The most common scene is when you want to send files or connect Bluetooth peripherals in an easy way. Thus, it is important to determine whether the TV box supports Bluetooth.
