Perhaps to the impression of many people, the sales volume of TV boxes in China has been rising in the past two years. Today, when home intelligence is more mature, does the home still need to install a TV box?
If you don't watch the live TV of CCTV and local stations at home, and you already have a smart TV, you generally don't need to buy a TV box. If you watch traditional live TV at home or like to use the new TV features, a new radio cable TV or smart TV box is a good choice.
The new generation of TV boxes has matured enough to support router functions and comes with WiFi. It is also very convenient for people who want to save money and not pull fiber optic broadband.
With the development of new characteristics of TV boxes, the simple pursuit of hardware performance has become obsolete, because the chips of TV boxes are basic chips, and most TV boxes on the market have supported 4K HD in video parsing. In addition to meeting the basic performance, more attention is paid to the cost performance, content service and personalized functions of the TV box.
Hundreds to thousands, the value for money varies from person to person
1, not necessarily cheap TV box is the most cost-effective. Many TV boxes have begun to sell with video content members, which is more cost-effective than simply buying TV members.
2, if you like to watch live TV, such as like watching ball, it is better to buy an IPTV TV box, but you need to pay a separate cable TV fee every month. Generally suitable for families with elderly people.
3, if there are many young people at home, keen on online movies and TV series, keen on on-demand content or experience rich third-party software functions, buy glory box, millet box, Taijie box, Dangbei box These are not wrong.
4, if you want richer functions, want to replace the router with a set-top box, or even do not pull broadband to be able to access the Internet, Tencent Aurora CPE set-top box, Huawei 5G CPE box and other third-generation TV boxes are the new trend.
Content services converge into a trend
There was a problem before, if you want to watch a movie or a TV series, you need to go to an online platform to recharge as a member. Now there are many TV boxes that integrate members of different platforms, the content is richer, and of course the price is slightly more expensive. There are also TV boxes that provide free video membership content, such as Tencent Aurora CPE set-top boxes.
Personalized features are more interesting
Intelligent voice control, Bluetooth remote control, regular elderly parent-child operating system switching, mobile phone sharing third-party software to the TV box... More and more intimate functions make the TV box function more perfect, which is also the competitiveness of the new generation of TV boxes.
The function of set-top boxes plus wireless broadband has also begun to become common, which is based on a CPE signal technology, that is, converting 4G and 5G signals into WiFi, becoming an upgraded mobile router, and comes with WiFi. It has been widely used in small and medium-sized families, street-facing shops, and mountain village ranches.
