▶ Unbox
WE40 Pro packaging box throughout black, the front of the box in addition to the WEBOX logo, the bottom also with "turn on the magic" to open the magic words, invisibly increase the mystery of this product, the side of the box is printed with WEB 40 Pro's main information and manufacturer information, you can see that the name of this box is WE40 Pro, the manufacturer is Xiaojie Technology.
All the items in the box are placed in two layers, the upper layer is placed in the host, and fixed with plastic molding, the lower layer is related accessories, all of which are packed in independent cartons, the items in the box are placed in a clear level, and the protection is well considered.
We40 Pro all items in addition to the host, including remote control, adapter, data cable, HDMI cable, two batteries and instructions, accessories are quite complete, it is worth mentioning that the adapter uses a split design, this design is more convenient to use than the one-piece charger, and the versatility is better, in addition, the two batteries also greatly improve the quick startability of the TV box.
▶Appearance.
The overall fuselage of WE40 Pro is flat and round, the surface is extended to the edge of the fuselage with a curved surface, the rear of the box is cut and flat designed, and all the interfaces are laid out in the cut end face, the overall shape is very similar to the shape of the gong, the black upper surface is treated by a bright surface process, plus the curved design, which can show a different reflective effect under the illumination of the light.
The fuselage size is 162 * 162 * 62mm, which is equivalent to the size of an adult's palm, and it will not occupy too much space in any position in the home, and the fuselage weight is only 175g, and it is effortless to move.
WE40 Pro all interfaces are concentrated in the back end of the fuselage, the use of leveled end space layout of all interfaces, from left to right interfaces are charging port, video port, network port, USB interface and reset port, of which the charging port using Type-C interface, not only has a strong versatility, can be compatible with all the Type-C data lines around, but also support video and data transmission, compared to the power interface of similar products, WE40 Pro's Type-C interface is more functional, The video interface adopts HDMI 2.0 interface, the network port is the standard RJ45 gigabit network port, and the USB interface can be judged from the blue connector, this USB interface supports USB 3.0, the USB interface is a pinhole reset hole, on the whole, the configuration of the interface considers both the needs of the traditional wired connection network, and the multifunctional Type-C interface and the USB interface that supports high-speed file transmission, the interface configuration is still considered quite comprehensively.
Different from the black on the surface of the fuselage, the bottom surface of the fuselage is silver, which is in stark contrast with the upper surface, and the middle of the bottom surface adopts a black ring-shaped black foot pad, which can play a good role in stabilizing the fuselage with the shape of the overall fuselage.
It is not difficult to find that from the FUS BODY of WE40 Pro did not find obvious antenna and heat dissipation design, in fact, WE40 Pro very cleverly use the space around the side of the fuselage, the heat dissipation hole is laid out between the gap between the upper and lower shells, so as to form a nearly 360 ° ring heat dissipation, compared to the traditional TV box heat dissipation hole design, WE40 Pro's ring heat dissipation effect is better, the range is larger, and because WE40 Pro uses a built-in antenna design, Therefore, in terms of appearance, it is impossible to find the abrupt antenna design of similar products, ensuring the simplicity of the overall fuselage.
It is worth mentioning that when we40 Pro is charged, the front end of the fuselage will light up the word "WEBOX", this implicit design is very clever, not displayed when not charged, when charged, the built-in LED word indicator light is lit, which can not only indicate the working state of the TV box, but also show the brand.
▶Experience.
Although the TV box has become a common device for watching movies at home, but because of the uneven hardware configuration, resulting in watching movies, watching TV when stuttering, so that many people in the use of tv box experience are not good, WEB 40 Pro for this pain point, focus on upgrading the core hardware configuration, the CPU using the mainstream brand Rockchip micro in the strongest model - RK3566, the chip using 4-core A55 architecture, the overall performance is stronger than the same architecture of the Jingchen S905X4, And RK3566 supports up to 8K video decoding, to meet the advantages of users' demand for high-definition video source is more obvious, GPU using ARM G52 2EE, supporting OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0.3.2, OpenCL 2.0, Vulkan 1.1, memory using DDR3 support 3GB capacity, flash memory with 32GB eMMC capacity, the configuration scheme of core hardware to ensure that users bring a smooth experience.
From the basic information of Antutu detection, it can also be seen that the operating system of WE40 Pro is Android 11, which in the current TV box market, there are few TV boxes with such a high version of the Android underlying system, although the TV boxes of various brands are based on the Android system developed by their own systems, but most of them are developed on the basis of Android 10 or lower, like WE40 Pro using Android 11 is very rare.
Here first use the AntuTu TV version to test the WE40 Pro's running ability, after the overall test, WE40 Pro's score is 57831 points, ranking second in the Antutu software, more than the third place 13,000 parts, and in another test software, after combining the sub-scores of 3D, UX, CPU and RAM, WE40 Pro's comprehensive score of 82510 points, ranking first in the projection list of the software, no matter which software, WE40 Pro's results and rankings can also glimpse its overall strength, of course, the running score is only a test of ability, the real use experience also depends on the playback source, connection to the network and other actual hand experience.
Because the CPU of WE40 Pro supports up to 8K video decoding, here is to experience the decoding ability and display effect of WE40 Pro one by one by playing different film sources, and first select two 4K and one 8K film source "Aero Chengdu" for trial broadcast. In the 4K "Journey to Chengdu" playback process, the excellent picture quality is displayed at a glance, and in the pilot broadcast of hdR10 and SDR sources that are also 4K but have different dynamic range images, the effect of HDR10 has a higher brightness than SDR through the picture shown by WE40 Pro. The details are preserved more, the colors are more vivid, there is no color cast, distortion and other defects, which is more in line with the preferences of the human eye for visual viewing.
In the process of playing 8K's "Journey to Chengdu", there is no caton, and even no decoding buffer phenomenon, and the picture quality is quite delicate, and the effect of this 8K film source playback is difficult to achieve with the same price TV box products. The WE40 Pro, which supports HDR10, after hardware-level dynamic compensation, even if the picture of complex chiarosy relationship, can adapt to rapid pixel changes through a larger bit rate, so that the picture quality always maintains the real effect of the original film, making the picture more vivid and bright.
