Lead
With the continuous development of science and technology, more and more smart products continue to emerge. Smartphones, smart TVs, smart boxes, smart homes, and a series of smart banner products have begun to be widely used in life. People are also using them while experiencing the new experience that technology brings to life. In particular, smart TVs, as a core electric appliance in the home life, have been developing in recent years, both in terms of hardware configuration, ultra-thin size, and excellent performance. The small whale 55-inch 4K HD smart flat-panel TVs brought by Xiaobian today is the new brand in the domestic TV market. Since its first meeting with everyone, it has been destined to start a new pattern of smart TV market.
Microwhale Technology is an Internet technology company founded by Li Huaiyu and Mr. Li Ruigang together in 2015. It is precisely for this reason that the core members of their team are the ones who have fought many years of experience in the television field. The whale smart TV WKT55K1 created by the company is based on the design concept of “becoming a representative of a new generation of young Chinese familiesâ€, allowing each family to truly experience home entertainment in the Internet era.
Micro Whale TV adopts 55-inch LG imported IPS hard screen, 6.8mm visual ultra-narrow frame, screen brightness up to 350nit, equipped with high-end 64-bit CPU processor Cortex A53 4-core 1.4GHz, 8GB flash memory and 2GB of memory, using 64-bit Yun OS System; In terms of sound effects, Microwhale TV invented two patented technologies aimed at improving the sound quality of TVs. It is the world’s first ultra-thin TV with built-in HiFi audio and is compatible with Dolby ATOMS. What is the use of this TV? Next, test it with Xiaobian.
Unpacking
First of all, I would like to thank the Xunxun test platform for giving this little evaluation opportunity. The packaging of the micro-whale TV, like most of the brand's packaging, uses a very hard and thick carton package. Although I know the approximate size of a 55-inch TV, I was shocked when I first saw the box. It was too big.
On both sides of the box are printed the basic information on the brand, model and color of the TV, and the official WeChat QR code link of the micro-whale TV. When transporting, two people are required to carry the goods together through the hollowing handles on both sides. Basically, it is impossible for one person to check the behemoth alone.
There are four convenient buckles at the bottom of the packing box. After each buckle is opened, the outermost box and the television host can be separated. Interestingly, the inside of the box is printed with a puzzle pattern, which can be discarded according to the pattern. The carton was cut down and spliced ​​into a whale shaped rocking chair, suitable for children playing at home. It can also be seen that the micro-whale TV team is still very careful about the details of the product.
Open the upper lid of the box to see the protective foam in the above to prevent the TV stand and accessories box, remove the protective foam in front of the screen, you can see the appearance of this micro whale WKT55K1 smart TV host; In general, the degree of protection of televisions in the packaging part is still relatively high, and accidents do not easily occur during transportation.
The accessories section includes a TV remote control, 5 mounting screws, a power cable, 2 AA batteries, two support feet, and an instruction manual. It is worth mentioning that the screws used to install the fixed tripods are left as spares. This point is still very user-friendly; unfortunately there is no screw driver installed inside, and it is hoped that one can be configured later.
The user manual explains the TV parameters, how to use the remote control, the precautions for use, and the installation process. The Xiaobian recommends that you read carefully before installing and using the TV. After all, this small whale TV is used as a new device. A generation of smart appliances, there are many useful features that we are not familiar with, to avoid the occurrence of misuse during use.
The appearance of the front, side, and back of the display of the micro-whale TV, in order to facilitate everyone to have more understanding of this product before use, Xiaobian will summarize its main hardware parameters as follows:
Screen type: original LG RGB IPS hard screen resolution 4K ultra clear backlight type: Micro whale independent research and development TPV OEM side-in LED
CPU: Mstar 6A828 (Cortex A53 quad-core 1.4GHz)
GPU: ARM Mail-450 MP4 (4+2 cores)
Storage space: 8G eMMC5.0
Memory: 2G DDR3
Digital TV format: DTMB
Design: Aluminum alloy metal frame 3 anodizing process processing Operating system: YunOS 64-bit custom version (compatible with Android L)
Screen: 55-inch, 178° viewing angle, 10000:1 dynamic contrast, 8ms dynamic response time Audio speakers: Stereo box speakers, support for multiple audio effects, compatibility with Dolby Surround ATOMS
Interface: HDMI terminal, AV input, USB interface, optical output SPDIF, TV TV input, headphone audio jack, Ethernet interface, SD card
The appearance of this small whale TV looks like gold brushed black metal frame design is very texture, supplemented by one-piece streamlined backplane and artistic tripod, seamlessly highlights the smooth beauty. At the same time, the three anodized metal surface treatment processes adopted at the same time make the surface of the frame smooth and smooth to the touch; the hardware part of the television is relative to similar products in the market, regardless of performance, resource content, and smooth running of the system. It is better than nothing, so since the television and the vast number of consumers have met with a good sales reputation.
Installation and dimensions
Before introducing the details of using the TV, we first need to install and fix the tripod. The micro whale TV's tripod is made of all-metal materials. After the die-casting lacquer treatment, it can integrate with the TV host. Brackets are also marked with R and L letters to prevent installation errors.
Place the tripod into the mounting hole at the bottom of the TV main unit according to the indication direction, and tighten the screws in the accessory part.
After the installation of the tripod was completed, Xiao Bian personally tested the TV's shaking situation. There was still a certain amount of shaking on the top of the camera. However, this was caused by too large TV size. There was no tripod. Any shaking appears.
Many small partners have always been unfamiliar with TV screen units because the aspect ratio of the TV is usually not fixed. Therefore, we measure the size of the TV in inch units, which is the length of the screen diagonal; 1 inch is equal to Metric 2.54 cm, 55 inches is equivalent to 139.7 cm.
The whale TV has a length of about 123 cm and a width of about 71 cm. Relatively speaking, the size of the TV is still relatively large. Xiao Bian personally feels that if the living room in the home is not particularly large, use a tripod to place it on the desktop. The effect on the wall is much better.
The thickness of the TV is only about 1.5 centimeters, where the small series does not use coins to compare. Now it looks like the diameter of the coin has become a fashion compared with the thickness of the TV. Everybody can intuitively see that the body is really thin.
Show details
The appearance of the micro-whale TV takes a concise fashion line. Without too many engravings and patterns, it reveals the low-key luxury from beginning to end. Let's take a look at the details of the TV body.
Golden dimple LOGO mark, under the background of a very narrow frame is more bright and beautiful.
Micro Whale TV WTV55K1 adopts IPS hard screen, is a pure South Korean imports of LG panel screen, resolution up to 3840X2160 resolution is 4 times the full HD 1080P, while also has a 178 ° large viewing angle, so that the screen can be perfect at any angle Quality panoramic view.
The switch of the tiny whale TV WTV55K1 is concealed at the bottom of the fuselage, it will not affect the use effect, but also ensure that the surface of the fuselage is clean and tidy and looks more beautiful.
The small whale TV WTV55K1 backplane uses one-piece compression molding technology. There is a long cooling hole at the back of the back panel, which is conducive to the distribution of heat.
The right side of the back of the TV is a variety of input and output interface locations, not only complete but also integrated into the backplane using a hidden design. It is worth mentioning that there are two USB3.0 interfaces, users can connect U disk or removable hard disk and other storage devices, directly and quickly view and play video, image files. In addition HDMI2.0 interface for HDMI1.4, the greater the potential to play 4K ultra-clear output.
The bottom of the fuselage is the TV's speaker position, so it also appears a little thicker, the micro-whale TV embedded Dolby ATMOS panoramic sound field technology, the sound effect is more realistic than the Dolby surround sound, vivid, more space sense; In addition "music The poet Li Qingcheng participated in the TV audio R&D process, and repeatedly listened to and tuned the sound effects so as to provide the user with a pure natural sound without impurities.
There are several special places on the backplane that need to be introduced. One of them is the cross rocker in the lower right corner. It can replace the remote control to directly control the TV. This is a little difficult to find for remote control. The partner is undoubtedly a big boon; the power connector of the TV adopts the horizontal type plug, which is convenient for connection, and the bent structure of the right-angled shape can prevent it from falling off; a note can also be found on the back plate with TV model and power rating. The small label of the parameter solves the trouble of the user to check the specification again.
The LED working status indicator at the bottom of the fuselage allows the user to intuitively understand the working conditions of the TV according to the changes.
Micro Whale TV WTV55K1 has a 6.8 mm ultra-narrow black frame, can be integrated with the screen, brings a borderless visual experience, allowing users to obtain a more comfortable and natural viewing experience. The surface of the frame shines brilliantly after processing 20,000-rpm high-speed diamond grinding process. The unique three-step anodized metal surface treatment process brings a superior texture to the aluminum alloy frame.
The connection between the four chamfers of the fuselage is also very difficult to find the existence of gaps. The downside is that the top angle is too sharp. Xiao Bian thinks it is better to make some arcs better and safer.
The Bluetooth connection mode used by the remote controller of the Micro Whale TV WTV55K1 does not need to be aligned like an infrared remote control before it can be controlled. The simple 12-key design is much simpler than the traditional home remote control, and it is also more applicable to the elderly and children in the home. Microwhale TV cooperated with Information Flight to develop a voice recognition control system. One of the highlights of this remote control was to support a series of operations such as voice-on-demand TV dramas, music playback, and open applications.
Use display
To measure whether a smart TV is good or not, in addition to its own performance, whether or not it can be integrated into the smart home style is also a key factor; Xiao Bian’s home use has always been a wall-mounted TV set. Whale TV, the effect on the TV cabinet is really good.
Through the side angles and the decoration style of the Xiaobian family, let's take a look at the environmental effects of this small whale TV. The Xiaobian is right in size and thickness.
Turn on TV power, turn on the switch button on the bottom of the fuselage, the TV can be started, Xiao Bian here skips the boot screen and the initial networking setup process, because the operation of the micro whale TV is really simple, even if TV white can be completed step by step according to the prompts on the screen. The introduction of the system content of the TV will be described in detail in the later APP section.
In addition to the function of playing video and audio resources, micro-whale television can also be used as a large-screen display. Xiao Bian's hand happens to have a smart mini cloud host that is specially designed as a living room audio and video management center, and connects it to the HDMI communication port. On TV, you can experience a brand-new experience with a 55-inch ultra-large screen monitor. Whether it's a web browser or a large-scale game that can be run by some computer host, I believe that the high-quality screen of the micro-whale TV will definitely have Cool experience.
Use test
Next, we tested the temperature change of the whale TV with a temperature measuring instrument. The surface temperature of the backplane of the TV just when it was turned on was about 23 degrees, which was close to the room temperature.
After three consecutive hours of playing movies, TV shows, game experiences, and downloading and installing applications, the temperature of the TV backplane was again measured at about 28 degrees, and the temperature at the heat vents was about 30 degrees. Overall, the micro whale The TV's processor performance and heat dissipation are still very good, and the temperature has only risen by about 5 degrees compared to when the power is turned on.
Micro Whale TV WTV55K1 uses a 55-inch LG IPS RGB True 4K hard screen panel, side-in LED backlight. The brightness can reach 330 nits in the standard state, the dynamic contrast is 10000:1 and the dynamic response is 8ms, and the number of colors is 10bit(D). I believe that most users do not understand the concept of these parameters very well. Actually, it does not matter. We can test the basic items such as screen brightness, color saturation, and whether there are dead pixels through TV download and installation applications; through black and red and black green. Several color tests, such as black and blue, have found that the transition is smooth and in line with the high-quality screen standards.
Through the 256-step gray and color test TV screen grayscale reduction capabilities and transparency effects, we can also see the performance of the true 4K screen of the micro-whale TV.
By switching the geometry back and forth, there is no change in shape indicating the quality of the screen; at the same time, Xiao Bian carefully looks at the screen to see if the screen has any abnormalities such as dead pixels or bright points. The result is that the light leakage is almost invisible to the naked eye and there is no The obvious bad point is enough to show that the performance of the Whale TV WTV55K1 is still quite good.
In order to make the display better, Microwhale chose the top 10bit panel that is generally used only for professional image design. It can display 1.07 billion colors, 64 times more color difference performance than the 8bit panel, and has a higher color gradation. Sensitive and precise color saturation; from the sample display samples, we can see that whether the waves, the green grass or the bright sunshine show the color of the scenery to the greatest extent, all return to the original ecology.
System display
The Little Whale TV is powered by the Yunos YunOS system. The original Waterfall Streaming TV interactive interface brings users a brand new operating experience. The interface style is simple and clear. It is divided into signal source, my TV, wonderful recommendation, classification, Applications, settings, etc. After networking, information on weather conditions, regions, and time can also be displayed in the upper right corner of the screen. It is very human.
For the signal source, my TV, and the wonderful recommendation of the three columns Xiao Bian does not want to focus on the description, because everyone can clearly see the content through the above screenshot; here Xiao Bian main and everyone to talk about the classification column Content, including movies, TV dramas, variety shows, news and information, music, children, anime, documentary, and operas, is up to the favorite operas of the elderly, children's favorite cartoons and children's channels, and micro-whale TV really does To the Heiner river. However, the mainstream brands of smart TVs seem to have become more competitive in terms of content. They are extremely resourceful in introducing their brand's resources and how colorful they are. But some are indeed overstated.
In addition, Micro Whale TV also enjoys a lot of audio resources, we can hear more lossless sound music here. The TV system can directly download and install a player such as QQ Music to log in to their own QQ account and use it directly. Enjoy a beautiful audition feast in front of the built-in HI-FI-class audio micro whale TV.
To be honest, there are not many softwares in the application store of the micro-whale TV system itself. They are also some basic practical software. If you want to try more content, you still need to download and install it through third-party software. The installation method can be downloaded from the mobile phone to download the remote connection of the Micro Whale Assistant, or through a U disk storage device to install.
In the common settings, you can set various operating system functions such as network status, bluetooth switch, audio and video, personalization settings, micro-whale account login, and software updates. Each item also has a prompt on the screen. According to their actual needs can be set.
There are many details in the settings of the images and sounds that reflect the thoughtfulness and nuances of the microwhales. For example, in the scenario mode, you can change the effects of different modes through the cut-down boot video, and the message alert switch and the host signal light color. Changes, night volume settings, etc.
Highlight 1: Membership Services
Xiaobian mentioned in front of the TV media library is very rich, but many of the 4K high-definition movies, video, and some movies just released soon need micro whale members can watch, this model and many TV business marketing tools Almost all the same, the difference is that the microwhales donated two years of membership services, only need to register a micro whale account to receive.
Highlights II: Children's Channel
Careful friends may find that there is a children's channel at the time of the introduction of the category channel in front of Xiao Bian, which is a major highlight of the content of the micro-whale TV content. It contains a lot of education such as children's animation, children's songs, and early childhood lessons. Resources, if there are users of babies and children in the home, this undoubtedly saves the cost of equipments such as learning machines, early education machines, etc., so that the TV in the home becomes the child's enlightenment teacher.
Highlight 3: Local File Access
The USB 3.0 interface of the Micro Whale TV can tell you to access the removable hard disk type storage device. It can display the audio and video files and office files directly on the TV screen for the user to directly view; it can also directly install software applications through the local .
Highlight 4: Intelligent Speech Recognition
At present, the remote control accessories of the smart TV market basically support the voice control mode, but the voice recognition speed and accuracy of many TV brand remote controllers are not flattered. The micro-whale TV official website explained that he understands Chinese more than Siri. As long as he utters the instructions that the user wants to operate, he basically can quickly and accurately identify and respond. Xiaobian personally tests whether he is asking for weather or on-demand movies. Inquiries recipes, chat conversations, etc., TV can answer the most, allowing users to get rid of the tedious remote input.
Highlight 5: Entertainment Games
As a smart TV, the experience of entertainment games is also very important. The small whale TV can directly control some simple games through the remote control, such as classic games such as Zombies and Tank Wars; of course, if there is a somatosensory game simulator or X-BOX gamepad, you can also try some more exciting and stimulating large-scale games, such as speed racing class, gun battle shooting class.
Highlight six: large-screen display
The function of TV as a monitor is actually introduced in the previous section. Here is a screenshot of the TV screen. Imagine if you use this 55-inch large-screen display to play live or play World of Warcraft. What does it feel like? Xiao Bian secretly tried it, only to say, the game character is too large to accept, ah, it seems to be accustomed to a period of time before they can.
Audio and video experience audio experience http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTM4NjUzNjEzNg==.html
Video Experience http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTM4NjUzNDE2OA==.html
Through the original audio and video playback, everyone can actually experience the playback of the micro-whale TV. However, Xiao Bian is showing it to everyone through camera recording. The actual effect may be somewhat reduced. Please also understand.
to sum up
Unconsciously, Xiao Bian has introduced a lot of this smart whale WTV55K1 flat-panel TV, although most of the content is to introduce the appearance of the TV structure and system use and other content, but I believe that most users buy a smart TV is also considered It is these elements that will not go deep into the study of CPU parameters, hardware construction and other professional knowledge; in general, this micro-whale TV is a high value TV, because of its luxurious and beautiful appearance The value, quality of the perfect 4K screen, excellent sound quality effects, and rich content resources, and many other advantages, has won the praise of the masses of consumers since its listing, and has also become a strong force for other TV friends. opponent. Xiao Bian above on the evaluation of this TV may have a lot of content is not comprehensive or incorrect, but also a lot of understanding, of course, in the trial of this TV also found some problems on the way, I hope the manufacturers can consider Xiao Bian Suggestions.
1. Four corners of the black outer border of the TV are recommended to increase the arc chamfer design. Not only will the effect appear more unique, but the TV will also be safer to use.
2, TV accessories lack the necessary tools and other related products, it is recommended to increase the wall bracket, installation screwdriver, communication cables, so that users can experience a more comprehensive purchase experience.
3, the true sense of removing the so-called VIP content, so that users can completely experience all the resources inside the TV, not just two years of free time.
4, enrich the content of television applications, allowing users to have more and more enjoyable experience, such as establishing a smart home system through television as the center, so that some smart appliances can interact with the micro-whale TV.
With the continuous development of science and technology, more and more smart products continue to emerge. Smartphones, smart TVs, smart boxes, smart homes, and a series of smart banner products have begun to be widely used in life. People are also using them while experiencing the new experience that technology brings to life. In particular, smart TVs, as a core electric appliance in the home life, have been developing in recent years, both in terms of hardware configuration, ultra-thin size, and excellent performance.

Whether it's a web browser or a large-scale game that can be run by some computer host, I believe that the high-quality screen of the micro-whale TV will definitely have Cool experience.
Use test
Next, we tested the temperature change of the whale TV with a temperature measuring instrument. The surface temperature of the backplane of the TV just when it was turned on was about 23 degrees, which was close to the room temperature.
After three consecutive hours of playing movies, TV shows, game experiences, and downloading and installing applications, the temperature of the TV backplane was again measured at about 28 degrees, and the temperature at the heat vents was about 30 degrees. Overall, the micro whale The TV's processor performance and heat dissipation are still very good, and the temperature has only risen by about 5 degrees compared to when the power is turned on.
Micro Whale TV WTV55K1 uses a 55-inch LG IPS RGB True 4K hard screen panel, side-in LED backlight. The brightness can reach 330 nits in the standard state, the dynamic contrast is 10000:1 and the dynamic response is 8ms, and the number of colors is 10bit(D). I believe that most users do not understand the concept of these parameters very well. Actually, it does not matter. We can test the basic items such as screen brightness, color saturation, and whether there are dead pixels through TV download and installation applications; through black and red and black green. Several color tests, such as black and blue, have found that the transition is smooth and in line with the high-quality screen standards.
Through the 256-step gray and color test TV screen grayscale reduction capabilities and transparency effects, we can also see the performance of the true 4K screen of the micro-whale TV.
By switching the geometry back and forth, there is no change in shape indicating the quality of the screen; at the same time, Xiao Bian carefully looks at the screen to see if the screen has any abnormalities such as dead pixels or bright points. The result is that the light leakage is almost invisible to the naked eye and there is no The obvious bad point is enough to show that the performance of the Whale TV WTV55K1 is still quite good.
In order to make the display better, Microwhale chose the top 10bit panel that is generally used only for professional image design. It can display 1.07 billion colors, 64 times more color difference performance than the 8bit panel, and has a higher color gradation. Sensitive and precise color saturation; from the sample display samples, we can see that whether the waves, the green grass or the bright sunshine show the color of the scenery to the greatest extent, all return to the original ecology.
System display
The Little Whale TV is powered by the Yunos YunOS system. The original Waterfall Streaming TV interactive interface brings users a brand new operating experience. The interface style is simple and clear. It is divided into signal source, my TV, wonderful recommendation, classification, Applications, settings, etc. After networking, information on weather conditions, regions, and time can also be displayed in the upper right corner of the screen. It is very human.
For the signal source, my TV, and the wonderful recommendation of the three columns Xiao Bian does not want to focus on the description, because everyone can clearly see the content through the above screenshot; here Xiao Bian main and everyone to talk about the classification column Content, including movies, TV dramas, variety shows, news and information, music, children, anime, documentary, and operas, is up to the favorite operas of the elderly, children's favorite cartoons and children's channels, and micro-whale TV really does To the Heiner river. However, the mainstream brands of smart TVs seem to have become more competitive in terms of content. They are extremely resourceful in introducing their brand's resources and how colorful they are. But some are indeed overstated.
In addition, Micro Whale TV also enjoys a lot of audio resources, we can hear more lossless sound music here. The TV system can directly download and install a player such as QQ Music to log in to their own QQ account and use it directly. Enjoy a beautiful audition feast in front of the built-in HI-FI-class audio micro whale TV.
To be honest, there are not many softwares in the application store of the micro-whale TV system itself. They are also some basic practical software. If you want to try more content, you still need to download and install it through third-party software. The installation method can be downloaded from the mobile phone to download the remote connection of the Micro Whale Assistant, or through a U disk storage device to install.
In the common settings, you can set various operating system functions such as network status, bluetooth switch, audio and video, personalization settings, micro-whale account login, and software updates. Each item also has a prompt on the screen. According to their actual needs can be set.
There are many details in the settings of the images and sounds that reflect the thoughtfulness and nuances of the microwhales. For example, in the scenario mode, you can change the effects of different modes through the cut-down boot video, and the message alert switch and the host signal light color. Changes, night volume settings, etc.
Highlight 1: Membership Services
Xiaobian mentioned in front of the TV media library is very rich, but many of the 4K high-definition movies, video, and some movies just released soon need micro whale members can watch, this model and many TV business marketing tools Almost all the same, the difference is that the microwhales donated two years of membership services, only need to register a micro whale account to receive.
Highlights II: Children's Channel
Careful friends may find that there is a children's channel at the time of the introduction of the category channel in front of Xiao Bian, which is a major highlight of the content of the micro-whale TV content. It contains a lot of education such as children's animation, children's songs, and early childhood lessons. Resources, if there are users of babies and children in the home, this undoubtedly saves the cost of equipments such as learning machines, early education machines, etc., so that the TV in the home becomes the child's enlightenment teacher.
Highlight 3: Local File Access
The USB 3.0 interface of the Micro Whale TV can tell you to access the removable hard disk type storage device. It can display the audio and video files and office files directly on the TV screen for the user to directly view; it can also directly install software applications through the local .
Highlight 4: Intelligent Speech Recognition
At present, the remote control accessories of the smart TV market basically support the voice control mode, but the voice recognition speed and accuracy of many TV brand remote controllers are not flattered. The micro-whale TV official website explained that he understands Chinese more than Siri. As long as he utters the instructions that the user wants to operate, he basically can quickly and accurately identify and respond. Xiaobian personally tests whether he is asking for weather or on-demand movies. Inquiries recipes, chat conversations, etc., TV can answer the most, allowing users to get rid of the tedious remote input.
Highlight 5: Entertainment Games
As a smart TV, the experience of entertainment games is also very important. The small whale TV can directly control some simple games through the remote control, such as classic games such as Zombies and Tank Wars; of course, if there is a somatosensory game simulator or X-BOX gamepad, you can also try some more exciting and stimulating large-scale games, such as speed racing class, gun battle shooting class.
Highlight six: large-screen display
The function of TV as a monitor is actually introduced in the previous section. Here is a screenshot of the TV screen. Imagine if you use this 55-inch large-screen display to play live or play World of Warcraft. What does it feel like? Xiao Bian secretly tried it, only to say, the game character is too large to accept, ah, it seems to be accustomed to a period of time before they can.
Audio and video experience audio experience http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTM4NjUzNjEzNg==.html

Through the original audio and video playback, everyone can actually experience the playback of the micro-whale TV. However, Xiao Bian is showing it to everyone through camera recording. The actual effect may be somewhat reduced. Please also understand.
to sum up
Unconsciously, Xiao Bian has introduced a lot of this smart whale WTV55K1 flat-panel TV, although most of the content is to introduce the appearance of the TV structure and system use and other content, but I believe that most users buy a smart TV is also considered It is these elements that will not go deep into the study of CPU parameters, hardware construction and other professional knowledge; in general, this micro-whale TV is a high value TV, because of its luxurious and beautiful appearance The value, quality of the perfect 4K screen, excellent sound quality effects, and rich content resources, and many other advantages, has won the praise of the masses of consumers since its listing, and has also become a strong force for other TV friends. opponent. Xiao Bian above on the evaluation of this TV may have a lot of content is not comprehensive or incorrect, but also a lot of understanding, of course, in the trial of this TV also found some problems on the way, I hope the manufacturers can consider Xiao Bian Suggestions.
1. Four corners of the black outer border of the TV are recommended to increase the arc chamfer design. Not only will the effect appear more unique, but the TV will also be safer to use.
2, TV accessories lack the necessary tools and other related products, it is recommended to increase the wall bracket, installation screwdriver, communication cables, so that users can experience a more comprehensive purchase experience.
3, the true sense of removing the so-called VIP content, so that users can completely experience all the resources inside the TV, not just two years of free time.
4, enrich the content of television applications, allowing users to have more and more enjoyable experience, such as establishing a smart home system through television as the center, so that some smart appliances can interact with the micro-whale TV.
