Very pleased with the box, and when compared to other vendors, support here is simply outstanding.
The FOTA went smoothly, but 2 or maybe 3 bugs.
1. If you set the root switch, it works perfectly with all my apps requiring root. However, after a reboot, even though the root switch shows as in the on position, root has been turned off. Simply toggling the root switch off and then on resolves the problem.
2. In launcher 3, you lose the top row of widgets after a reboot. Not a huge deal here, but annoying.
3. I did not run benchmarks, unfortunately, when I got the box this morning. I went straight to the update. I ran the latest Antutu and got a disappointing 115505 score. Geekbench 4 single core was 1211, and multi 3427. I get better than these on my other s922x boxes, so I am wondering what happened to the CPU performance boost? Is there a switch to turn it on or something?
I would recommend that you set Dolby Vision as disabled, and SDR to HDR set to off as defaults. They do weird things to the picture on some big sets, and take some experimenting to see what the issue is when they come set to on ss default.
I will say again I am very happy I bought this box.
Picture quality is exceptional. Side by side with my 2015 Shield Pro is no contest. The picture is much more vibrant with the Minix.
