The UGOOS SK2 runs the usual Google TV interfaces found on all other certified media devices and ships with an Android TV-supported remote with app buttons and Voice search. Previously, Amlogic S905X4 was one of the preferred SoCs for certified TV boxes, and UGOOS says the RTD1325 SoC is quite more powerful, with a 60 percent boost in Antutu where it gets around 210,000 points.
It’s not quite the first Google TV box powered by a Realtek RTD1325 SoC, as we previously covered the Formuler Z mini dongle and MECOOL KM9Pro Max TV box. However, the UGOOS SK2 offers twice as much RAM with 4GB LPDDR4, plus WiFi 6 connectivity against WiFi 5 on the other devices.
The UGOOS SK2 Google TV box ships with a voice remote control, a 12V/1A power supply, an HDMI cable, and a user manual. You’ll find it on various AliExpress shops for just $89.90. A few more details may be found on the product page.
