Tronsmart Vega S95 Telos Android 4K Media Player Review

Others/All-in-one PC by stefan @ 2016-01-27

The Tronsmart Vega S95 Telos is performing as promised by the manufacturer, being able to playback 4K content without any issues at all and at the same time it is able to output at this resolution with a frequency of 60Hz. We do get plenty of possibilities to connect extra storage to it via the included USB 2.0 ports, the SATA Data/Power interface but also via LAN, Wi-Fi or even the SD Card reader. The 3D performance of the product is also quite decent so considering that we do actually have a fully-functional Android 5.1.1 mini-PC on our hands, we can install plenty of other applications on it via Play Store.

Test Setup and Test Results Part I

Our Tronsmart Vega S95 Telos sample is equipped by one of the latest SoCs from Amlogic, the S905 quad-core 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 CPU with a maximum reported frequency of 2GHz, while the 3D rendering is taken care by the penta-core ARM Mali-450 GPU. All this is accompanied by 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory and is fully capable to display and run 4K video content at a refresh rate of 60Hz.

 

 

The Device tab informs us on the supported screen resolution, manufacturer, screen density, total RAM and usage but also total internal storage and usage:

 

 

The System tab will supply us more information regarding the board type, Android version, kernel, root access and so on:

 

 

The Battery tab will show the current status, but is not applicable for this model:

 

 

 

The new Thermal tab will update us with the live temperatures of the SoC:

 

 

 

To test out the performances of the Vega S95 Telos 4K Media Player in more detail, we have installed some freeware benchmark apps from the Google Play Store in the internal memory (did not transfer them to a 3rd party microSDHC card, in order not to influence the test results). Afterwards, the applications were ran one-by-one, and we recorded the final scores; the obtained results were also compared with the previously tested systems, in order to spot the performance differences.
