BTW, the SOCs are not quite identical with Ugoos and Minix. The latter is using some custom S922X-J up 1.7Ghz, but Ugoos is using stock 2.2Ghz clock speed.
They are identical, though. Amlogic only released one S922X-J, which both devices use. As for the clock speed, minix has it underclocked to work out some bugs until the next firmware 'coming soon' where the cores' ghz will then match the am6 plus.

I don't understand how Minix released a product without AFR. According to the channel, Minix has a very bad reputation for promising and not releasing promised updates and fixes.
Anyway, I am not really a fan of Chinese boxes, but I am willing to give a try if they fully support the dual-layer DV files found in UHD disks ( profile 7 ). Almost forgot to mention, Ugoos supports the HD audio with Atmos/DTS:X, unlike Minix.
again, it's all been addressed and AFR and full HD-audio will be there in the next fw. I'm not a die-hard minix fan or anything, I just owned the u9-h is all and saw how well it was supported for many years. It's unclear whether the Ugoos devs have added profile 7 support where the minix is looking like they might have. until the big kinks are worked out and more test results come back I don't really care for either one. I'll probably just get a shield, tbh.
