The competition in the TV box market is getting fiercer by the day. Xiao Bian, inspired by the enthusiasm of many netizens, decided to buy a Tate Box and took on a fierce battle with the Tmall Box at home.
**A Video Playback Performance Showdown**
Knowing that Taijie started with video content, the popular videos from Taijie made people feel really good about the brand. Taijie has been focused on video technology for over 10 years, and with trust in their professionalism, I bought this Tate Box. And it truly lived up to expectations. The video playback experience on the Tate Box can only be described as "fast."
First, launching the software is extremely quick—no ads at all. Once inside, you can jump straight to the main page with almost no loading time. Opening a video also happens in just a few seconds, although this does depend on your home internet speed.
In addition, Taijie’s unique “soft decoding†and “hard decoding†technologies are not found in other boxes. These two decoding methods can be switched between when watching on-demand or live streaming. For on-demand content, choose hard decoding, and switch to soft decoding for live broadcasts. This ensures greater compatibility and smoother performance—a strong point in video decoding!
It's well known that the Tmall Box focuses heavily on TV shopping features. However, its video playback capabilities are relatively weaker. Even though some models claim support for 4K playback and H265 hard decoding, the actual performance is often underwhelming.
Some users might think the difference comes down to Android vs. Yunos systems, but even so, there are still areas where video clarity needs improvement. For example, under the program categories, many shows are available, but updates are slow. Also, the clarity of live broadcasts is noticeably lower than that of radio broadcasts.
**Thermal Performance Battle**
The thermal performance of the Tate Box is quite impressive. I noticed an embedded heat sink near the indicator light on the side of the box. Both the previous 20S model and the current 30 model were designed with this feature. Although the box gets warm during use, after testing for nearly an hour, it didn’t get too hot. Compared to other boxes, its cooling performance is definitely better.
On the other hand, the Lynx Box has a cute appearance, but the plastic material used in the casing doesn’t have good heat dissipation properties. There are no visible ventilation holes, which makes me worry about its long-term thermal performance.
For digital devices, proper heat dissipation is crucial. High CPU temperatures during heavy usage can cause the device to slow down, crash, or even display black screens, which can significantly reduce the lifespan of the box.
**User-Friendly Setup and Operation**
The main interface of the Tate Box is divided into three sections: Taijie Video, Game Center, and user-installed apps. It’s clean and simple, with no unnecessary recommendations or ads. The layout is easy to navigate, and the system supports custom desktops, allowing users to move favorite apps to the home screen for quicker access. It’s ideal for families who want to watch together.
Taijie understands that users want a straightforward experience for watching TV and videos, not a cluttered interface. That’s why the system is simple and easy to use.
The Lynx Box, however, has a more complex UI, which may be suitable for tech-savvy users. The homepage uses vertical scrolling, while second-level pages use horizontal scrolling, making it less uniform. New users might find it confusing.
What’s more, the system comes with a lot of pre-installed apps that can’t be uninstalled easily. While manual flashing is an option, it’s not convenient for average users.
**Remote Control Showdown**
The Tate Box remote control has a minimalist design with only 11 buttons. You don’t need to look at it to operate, and the feel is very comfortable. Most adults can handle it with one hand. I personally prefer it. Plus, it uses 2.4G wireless technology, allowing 360-degree operation without dead zones. No need to worry about sensitivity.
The Tmall remote is also functional, but it feels more like a standard plastic remote. It uses infrared, so you need to align it properly to work. Its sensitivity isn’t as good as 2.4G or Bluetooth remotes. But if you're a big fan of shopping, it has M-keys for one-click shopping, which is pretty convenient.
