In today's smart TV industry, network box is still dominated by a large share of the market due to its excellent hardware and good scalability (of course, a cloud system is another matter), and I feel that the popularity of smart TV, The low price is a way to improve the performance of television, but the TV box is indeed an external device that enjoys audiovisual experience and even higher demand. It does not mean that there is no need for a smart TV to use the box, the scalability and hardware parameters of the box, Smart TVs are absolutely unmatched, and television manufacturers are more focused on the development and updating of hardware. It can be said that their smart systems are only occasionally concerned, and the replacement of the box is cheap and convenient, and a TV can be used five times. Years or even longer, all if you pay more attention to performance and diversity, then spend hundreds more, is an absolute value for money experience.
Introduced to you today is an industry ace product, the Youku YK-K1 box. As a big player in the online film and television industry, Youku has used excellent resources and an excellent user experience to fight down the country and its people. Although not a veteran manufacturer, but now take the software and then fight the hardware model, is really no disadvantage after absorbing powder, using ARM Cortex-A17 architecture RK3288 chip, clocked at 1.8GHz, equipped with Mali-T764 GPU, 1GB DDR dual Channel memory, 8GB eMMC high-speed storage, built-in 4.0 Bluetooth voice interaction module, equipped with Bluetooth remote control, support full voice interaction, although in the era of hardware fight, Youku box memory and storage size are not very prominent, but with its excellent and Deep source support, and innovative voice input, is still a very worthwhile device.

From the perspective of product packaging, Youku box does not go that beautiful high-end design, but simple and simple packaging materials using a kraft paperboard, and the main view is very simple to put the product's logo and LOGO, and The upper right corner is the label of the owner of the box license CIBN;

As a big manufacturer, although it is not a betting head on the packaging, the design is nuanced, and a shock-proof sponge is installed on the top of Youku to ensure the safety during transportation.

The output of the power supply is 5V 2.0A, also printed with Youku LOGO, but the plug is really too big, compared to my other plug this is a giant rating;
The keys of the remote control are basically similar to those of other boxes. There are 12 main control buttons, 11 of which are control buttons and one of voice input buttons. This is also a very good feature of the ThinkBox, especially for this kind of remote control. A voice input is really a lot of convenience. Now that the streamlined 11-button remote control is really missing in terms of appearance and size, it has a lot worse user experience. Every time you search for a movie, it's really anxious. Especially for the elderly, the access threshold has been improved a lot, and a simple amount of voice control has solved all your troubles;
The remote control adopts a streamline design with a thick bottom and a thin head.

A non-slip mat on the ground to prevent it from falling on the home, and a very small socket is designed in the upper left corner. It is a reset socket. If there is a crash or need for a brush, it can be used.

Because the time hastily did not carefully study the screenshots of Youku box, TV does not have a screenshot function, smart camera to take pictures, you see and see and forgive me, after booting according to the system prompts pairing remote control, remote control is a Bluetooth connection, After selecting WIFI for connection, the password input will be very troublesome because there is no button;

The screen zoom can set the size and position of the display screen. For the box's "unsatisfied with the water and soil" of some devices, it can be adjusted according to the needs, and it is also an important function not commonly used.
In the upgrade, you can see that the box will have two upgrade options for the remote control and the box. Even the remote control can be upgraded. It is really a user-oriented design philosophy.
Playback settings are the necessary settings for playing video on the box, including the default quality, language, and skip titles. These are the common settings in Youku software. It is necessary to talk about that Youku box can support multi-screen interaction. It is the DLNA function on the mobile phone that can place the mobile phone and the box under a WIFI, and then use the DLNA function of the mobile phone to speak the content broadcasted by the mobile phone on the television and share it with the whole family;
The hibernation function can set the screen saver and standby time settings. The minimum time for screen saver and standby is 1 minute and 15 minutes, and the maximum is 12 minutes and 90 minutes.

Play trial:
A brief introduction to the setup project, the following is to introduce the most important playback related situations:
After booting, the display is the exclusive Youku buffer icon, or the familiar formula, or the familiar taste, there will be a video recommendation during the boot process;
Youku box interface can be said that I used several boxes in a very simple, which mainly includes: home page, TV drama, film, variety, channel, mine, application of seven modules, clear functions, convenient selection, including the main home page Showcasing various types of repertoires that have been hit so far to meet various needs;
The TV drama page first recommended is a few dramas that are very popular recently. If you do not like to read, click on the three items on the left, you can enter a detailed selection interface, which is basically the same with Youku's web interface, convenient to operate;
The same is true of movie columns. All of them use module images, which are easy to clean and tidy. The film source is also very rich. After all, there are Youku's film source libraries propped up here.
Variety show is better, the home page also recommended Korea's genuine running man, this is not China's exclusive buyout can be compared, absolute laughter expected spike;
The box has customized member zones for Youku members. There are 4 modules in the atmosphere. The first two do not have to say. Let's talk about the 3D zone. Now many families have bought or sent a pair of 3D glasses. Seeing 3D blockbusters, Youku has set up a special 3D zone to meet users' demand for 3D without leaving the house. Although there are not many sources, you can expect to know more about the films in this area.
4K area is all 4K power, now can play 4K devices and can display 4K display settings are more and more, but the 4K source is not seen much, and Youku specifically set 4K area, so that you do not If you look hard enough, you can see 4K ultra clear;
The channel section is like screening, separating the categories, allowing users to be more convenient and faster when selecting, and “my†is a record of some individual users’ habits, including playing history collections and recommendations, etc., while the application is Is installed in the box of software, and Youku in order to better meet customer experience, but also their own development of a software assistant, which contains games, management and other practical software;
In the application, you can see the built-in file manager, which can be used to browse the contents of TF card and U disk and play it. Youku's software assistant is called Cool Market. Although the software content is not enough, it is definitely enough to use.
The management interface can quickly manage applications and installation packages;
Video filtering operation:
Video screening interface and Youku's choice is the same, but to say more, and the box screening method can play the first letter of the film can also be spelled, the good point is to fight the first letter spelling, timely mistakes also bring their own Correcting functions, such as I would like to search for "Medical Physicians and Apostles", and promptly typing NMYFZ can also be corrected automatically;
Member introduction:
Youku box and Youku account are common, including members and habits recommended, so open Youku member of the students do not forget to log in, oh;
Voice search display:
One of my favorite operating methods in Youku operation - voice search, hold down the voice button in the upper right corner of the remote control, speak to the remote control's pickup port, such as "I want to see Naruto" box recognition, after The recognized text is displayed on the screen to facilitate your confirmation. It will also display the selected video and directly select it for viewing. For the elderly and those who are in trouble, it is really an artifact.
