Tanix TX8 TV Box Review Reviewed by Android TV Box review

The Tanix TX8 TV Box is an Android Marshmallow TV Box recently added to the list of the creations by the company. The Tanix TX8 sports a lot of improvement from the previous products sold by the company. Luckily, it comes with the not so latest version of Android, Android 6.0 Marshmallow which makes it a better device than some other TV boxes in the same price category with it. Also featured in this device are the Amlogic S9112 CPU and a high-performance 64-bit chipset that sports a maximum clock speed of 1.5GHz.

The Tanix TX8 TV Box comes packaged in a white square shaped box. On the top of the box, some of the features of this device are displayed. Opening up the box, you are greeted with a piece of the Tanix TX8 in a white transparent packaging material and in a compartment of its own which is the first layer.

Design and Hardware

The Tanix TX8 TV Box has been designed to be as compact and lightweight as possible. This device has a square shape, while at the edges it has been given a round finish. The color version I’m reviewing is the black one, and I’m not sure if there are any other colour versions. Mine came in a black color with silver bezels running around it. On the top of the device, the name of the device, TX8 is clearly written in white-coloured fonts.

Software and Applications

The TX8 TV Box comes pre-installed with the KODI TV app. Through this, users can access a number of TV channels and watch their favourite TV programs. Also on this device is the YouTube app which might need an upgrade before being available for use. Connect to your TV, or PC device, connect to your Wi-Fi and stream videos at ease.

The Google Play Store app is another important app that comes pre-installed on this device. While still connected to your Wi-Fi network, you can easily install any apps of your choice from the Store or make upgrades to existing apps.

Through the Settings tab, you can easily make some changes to the previously enabled settings on this device. You can adjust the time, same as date settings, audio, display, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, HDR settings, etc.
