There are 50% smart players and 50% traditional players in the market. What would you choose?

Smart players and traditional players on the market account for 50% and 50% respectively. I think it's also important to experience them personally. What you should consider is whether to buy one. Big and complete? Or? Small but fine? Players. ?

There are similarities and differences between smart box and player industry, which provides feasibility for smart box manufacturers to transform into player industry. For example, Haimeidi and Kaiboer are two very successful examples, so what is the difference between smart 4K players and traditional players? What factors need to be considered when buying both?

1. Software and hardware: In terms of software and hardware system, the intelligent 4K player is equipped with a relatively new processing core, which has both decoding and entertainment functions in terms of computing power and graphics processing performance. On the one hand, it provides hardware decoding for 4K decoding, on the other hand, it also carries the expansibility of running Android open architecture system smoothly, so the processor, memory and flash memory are more powerful than the traditional player configuration. What are the current mainstream configurations? 64-bit 8-core processor +2GB memory+16GB flash memory? Moreover, the chip update cycle is short, and perhaps iterative chips with stronger performance of different models in the same series will be launched in the second half of the year, so that the trend is stronger and the firmware update cycle is short, and the firmware update can be quickly realized through the Internet; Traditional players are conservative, and memory and flash memory are inherited because of special processing decoding. That's enough, okay? In principle, the system is generally equipped with Linux, so the system scalability and firmware update are slow and cumbersome, but it is precisely because of the function? Conservative? The system runs smoothly, even if it is used for ten or eight years, it will not feel stuck.

Second, the user experience: The intelligent 4K player is based on the open architecture of Android, so it is very Internet-based. Many functions that are difficult to realize in traditional players can be easily solved on the intelligent 4K player platform, such as installing APP, watching videos online, projecting screens to TV, transmitting screens from TV to mobile phones, controlling mobile phones, voice remote control and various special applications. Traditional players may not be able to achieve the above functions, and even if they can, they can only be achieved by brushing third-party firmware. In addition, the interface design of the intelligent 4K player system is more vivid and colorful, and some customization can be realized. For example, the KIUI 9.0 system of Kaiboer's flagship product shown below can add application shortcuts by pressing the down button of the remote control on the home page, which is similar to the traditional player interface design. The intelligent 4K player can also be used as a game machine, which can install various games APK, expand TV entertainment functions, and further enhance home entertainment by connecting wireless Bluetooth gamepads, mouse buttons, speakers, etc.

3. Interface: As far as the interface is concerned, the traditional player is more professional, and three data ports, namely BD cabinet, built-in hard disk and USB interface, are essential. In terms of output, one or two HDMI high-definition interfaces are provided (high-end players can realize audio-visual separation output), and some of them will also be equipped with LAN, RS232 central control, AV output, optical fiber audio and coaxial audio output. High-end players will also be equipped with independent operational amplifier-driven analog left and right two-channel outputs. Intelligent 4K players focus on the built-in hard disk and USB mobile hard disk to play movies, so they are generally not equipped with BD disk storage, and there is no dedicated operational amplifier and power blessing for analog two channels.

Fourth, the broadcast control experience: the broadcast control experience is the watershed of their advantages and disadvantages. The intelligent 4K player has a very good broadcast control experience with the blessing of the Internet. At present, several flagship machine products on the market are equipped with poster wall, douban evaluation, movie details browsing, online subtitle plug-ins, and even subtitles can be adjusted in terms of time axis, size, color, location, spacing and line spacing. In traditional players, except for some high-end models, subtitles can be mounted manually, and movies are mainly displayed in the form of file name list. In contrast, the film display in the form of poster wall is intuitive and vivid, with obvious advantages, and online subtitles also bring convenience to players.

5. Image quality/sound quality: When playing a movie, whether it is a smart 4K player or a traditional player, it depends on the quality of sound and picture. At present, high-definition audio is mainly output to the back-end for decoding and strong decoding and output to the speaker, so the quality is mainly determined by the quality of the decoder and the speaker, but the player can determine the supporting format of high-definition audio. At present, the highest specifications are Dolby Panoramic Sound and DTS-X; In terms of image quality output, the general direction of the picture is determined by the processing chip of the player, such as the warmth and coldness of the tone, sharpness, color saturation and so on. , and the details of the picture depend on the coupling circuit of the player, power optimization and so on. In terms of sound quality, high-end intelligent 4K players and traditional players are licensed by Dolby Panoramic Sound and DTS-X, while low-end intelligent 4K players and traditional players are mixed, and shoddy products abound. In terms of image quality, at the same price, because individuals have different preferences for image quality, color, sharpness and other parameters, I will not analyze the image quality comparison between the two in detail here.

? 6. Price/Marketization: It is precisely because of the scalability of functions that the smart 4K player with the same performance segment is superior in price, but it is very competitive in the same price segment? Traditional players entered the industry earlier, so there is a group in the market? Burning friends? , inherited the purchase inertia and performance familiarity of the series products, so what about this part? Burning friends? It is more likely to buy this series of iterative products, but with the rise of the consumer army after 80 s and 90 s, Android Blu-ray players injected with Internet factors are more popular.
