Almighty 4K Cannon - Micro Whale TV 43 inch experience

Micro whale is a new internet TV brand. Founded in 2015 by Mr. Li Ruigang and Mr. Li Huaiyu. Speaking of Li Ruigang, it can be described as a well-known figure in the television industry. The industry generally calls it “Uncle Li”. Originally the CEO of Shanghai Media Group, and later went to the sea to do Internet TV, so the micro whale can grasp the mastery of media resources. It is very experienced. Of course, the little whale is amazingly rich in not only rich media resources, but also excellent hardware and high cost performance. Next, enter the formal experience link.

Out of the box

The upper part of the package clearly shows the standard process of unpacking, very close to the small details:

After signing and sealing, it is recommended that the package be retained for 30 days:

The first thing that catches your eye is the two bases and a box:

Take out the box and base:

Open the small box with power cord, remote control, manual, 2 AAA batteries and an Allen key:

The work of the base is very solid, using ABS plastic material. Engraved with information such as the number of the above:

Remove the foam protection material and you will see the screen:

At this point, two people are required to act. One fixes the outer box and the other draws out the screen. The protection of the screen is very good:

Insert two feet and use the supplied Allen wrench to tighten the two screws:

In fact, there are other functions of the box, you can cut it out and make a whale shaped paper model to make the best use of it:

The design of the plug is very unique, the ultra-thin 2-eye plug, which guarantees a minimum thickness when mounted on a wall:

Looking at the interface, the side offers a 3.5mm audio output, an HDMI and 2 USB 3.0:

The bottom surface is SPDIF audio input, network input, AV input, and the second HDMI interface, UART interface and antenna interface:

Body nameplate, power consumption 100W, model WTV43K1, certified by Dolby Sound and dts-HD:

From the hardware design and workmanship, personal feeling is still very good, many details have been taken into account.

Experience

Take a look at the actual experience. The first time you start up, there will be a 3D whale animation. Personally feel very shocked, if you can make every boot animation like this:

Provides rich source switching and a simple and easy to use interface:

The content of the recommendation page is also very rich:

Supports installation of third-party Android applications:

In order to test the display effect, I specifically downloaded a 7-minute 4K test video with a capacity of 5GB:

The restoration of color is also very good, if I do not say this is a screen shot, I believe most people will think that I directly upload the original:

The overall experience of the small whale 43-inch cannon TV is very good. Thanks to the strong hardware based on the ARM platform, the reaction of the whole machine is very fast, and the 4K video is not stuck. The details of the screen display sharpness, which is also unmatched by the traditional 1080P screen

Resolve

So, from a technical point of view, what exactly is the performance and workmanship of this product?

In general, current LCD TVs are composed of main components such as a housing, a power board, and a motherboard (image processing and Android board):

The same is true for the micro-whale WTV43K1. In the case of the casing, the product positioning and cost considerations are not taken, and the all-metal back cover and ultra-thin side edges are not used.

However, the features of the ultra-narrow frame are still preserved. The internal power board, motherboard layout and settings are still relatively standardized.

At the bottom are two full-range units and no subwoofer is set. The weight of the whole machine is still relatively light in the 43-inch TV.

to sum up

In general, the micro-whale's 43-inch cannons have achieved the best experience while ensuring product quality.

From its product positioning and selling price, it can not be required to be less than 1 cm body thickness.

It is worthy of recognition that the microwhales did not make any compromise in the part involving the user experience.

Including the shape of the remote control design and key materials, feedback and other details.

This is also the reason why the TV is not expensive, but the overall experience is very good. It can be said that the price is very high.
