Across Design Bottlenecks UT Egg Box 1S Reviews
UTStarcom, as the leading mobile product manufacturer in China, has unmatched brilliance in communications business. Can we still remember PHS phones that were used in childhood? Compared to large-scale switches and communication equipment, such electronic consumer goods are more easily known to us. As a company that was established in 1995 and has developed rapidly in the United States since 2000, it has witnessed the ups and downs in 20 years. UT Starcom's strength.
As a leader in mobile communications, UTStarcom is not satisfied with its current status. Family-based living room intelligence has gradually become the beginning of the UT Starcom's next occupation plan, thereby adding intelligent products to the development of arrays. Gradually became another line for UTStarcom to expand its new business, and then once again pushed its brand to another level, transforming it from the commercial level to the individual level, thereby enhancing the overall brand value of UTStarcom.
The first stop in the living room is to occupy the screen. Because the TV family has a very large number of households, at the same time, the use of old TV is still very large. Many families do not replace the smart TV in time, and thus cannot obtain more content from the Internet. Therefore, UTStarcom has developed its own set of high-definition set-top boxes, in exchange for the minimum cost of ownership of the screen, it stands to reason that UT Starcom is not on the HD box, but from the current point of view, UT Starcom for high-definition The manufacture of the box was very successful.
The UT Starcom's new UT Egg 1S HD Internet TV box is its main personal consumer product, with a new attitude and high cost performance, especially for the control of the shape, perfect with other brands nowadays The effective separation is refreshing. Here we will make a comprehensive evaluation of the three blocks of the appearance, content and function of this box.
Surprising appearance of winning hardware configuration remains high
First of all, for the traditional look of squareness, the shape of this UT egg can be said to be unique, ingenuity, from the packaging can clearly and clearly feel the change of UT this time, an "egg" word has been disclosed The shape of this high-definition box should be oval, which makes us more interested in opening this product to understand the inner appearance.
The shape of the main use of a standard spherical body, while carrying a dock base, in order to make this box better placement, while not taking up more locations, the appearance of surprise to win more people to choose the reason, after all The appearance of the HD box is uniformly used horizontally, and there is no better design idea.
The interface functions behind are not very rich. At the same time, physical switches that are used less frequently are used. There are spare places above the USB interface. At the same time, the entire interface is obviously disordered, and there is a lack of network interface and AV interface. The wireless network signal is unstable. It is an indisputable fact that since the first generation, this feature should appear in the follow-up products, and there is no AV transfer. Old TVs are difficult to upgrade. On this point, the egg boxes do not do very well.
In terms of hardware configuration, this HD egg smart set-top box uses the Allwinner H8 Cortex-A7 eight-core processor, which is equipped with 1GB of memory and 8GB of flash memory. At the same time, the problem of insufficient flash memory still exists, so the Micro SD card socket is to solve this problem. , while supporting Bluetooth 4.0 and 2.4GHz and 5GHz dual-band wifi.
The remote control uses a highly simplified 11-button design. This type of remote control eliminates the need for more operations. It prevents accidental touches and can be more easily operated for children and elderly parents at home, but the UT itself White and the black of the remote control form a strong contrast, and the mix of black and white is somewhat strange. It may be that the white eggs are more able to integrate into the environment, and the black remote is the standard color of more products.
The system is simple and easy to use UI design humanization
The following figure is the boot interface of the UT egg. It starts with the meteor and the product logo. It takes only 15 seconds to reach the main interface. It is just good for the HD box. At the same time, this UT egg uses the KitKat Android 4.4 operating system. In-depth optimization was performed to adapt the Android version of the mobile terminal to the TV version so that it can be used more easily.
The face of the use of block design, most of the current high-definition box began to gradually give up the windows metro interface style, using a more concise one-page style, and the advantage of this is that more quickly find the required content, such a design It is also relatively mainstream at present. At the same time we try to move to Mango TV, we will find two pop-up dialogs, namely recently seen and video search, which can be performed without entering. It is very convenient.
In the figure above, we can see that the settings interface has been completely optimized. The homepage's setting interface is divided into ten parts, corresponding to the lazy installation, regional settings, display, network settings, etc., which are unnecessary or rarely used. The setting interface is all hidden with advanced settings, and the Android native setting method will appear in the advanced settings.
Online video library rich more content readily available
The UT Egg HD Network Set-top Box cooperates with Mango TV, one of the seven major content providers, to jointly launch a special content platform to enhance the content experience so that the viewing experience can be better achieved, especially for Friends who love watching online movies and TV dramas, Mango TV covers most of the latest movies and TV series.
The above picture clearly shows that Mango TV has made a brand new interface to the UT Egg Box, and added a lot of special icon labels in the selection menu below, such as the Golden Melody Award, Super League, Challenge and Children's Day etc. This design is also designed to enrich existing program content.
On the map above we can see that the online TV series is very rich in content and is synchronized with the content of the existing TV stations. Therefore, if the content of the TV station is missed, the content can be completely compensated through the UT box, and it is absolutely high-definition content. Here we need to mention one thing is that this UT egg HD box supports H.265 video, compared to traditional network video can save more than the average bandwidth, so it will not slow down the speed, save time and convenient.
The above picture is the online movie content of the actual test. We selected the “Ten Thousand Years Later†movie just under the previous paragraph. The time interval from the movie theater is not long, so it is still very good for the update speed of the movie. At the same time, the movie screenshots are completely real shots, so the picture is very clear and suitable for family members to watch.
Local Play Smooth HD Video Wants to Broadcast
As a high-definition box, external storage device playback is very necessary, and from the current point of view, about 10GB of video resources downloaded from the Internet can highlight the viewing effect, this content is only visible, so we specifically from the Internet Downloaded high-definition pictures and videos to test.
Because this UT egg box resolution supports 1080P Full HD, we chose a 1080P full HD video for local playback. Through actual testing, we can see that the video is very clear and the color is very pure and without any distortion. . The whole video was also very smooth, and there was no unpleasant situation with Caton and sound and picture.

And the supported video formats are very rich, and the mainstream format video can be played directly.

Evaluation summary:
This UT Egg HD Box is the first product of UTStarcom's entry into the living room, and it is also a crystal product of its wisdom and entertainment. With a high attitude attitude to face many competing products, we have also discovered this from the evaluation process.

The disadvantage is that there are certain flaws in the design of the first generation of products. There is a certain difference between the products we have obtained and the products on the market. The design of the network port does not appear. At the same time, the selection of flash memory is too small at present. On the whole, this product is still remarkable.
