    Design:

    The design of the Ugoos X3 Pro is ordinary but with some elegant touches, just a rectangle black plastic box with a chrome curvature on the side and is very compact with dimensions 11.00 x 6.20 x 2.20 cm, And with a very lightweight not exceed 100 g, and although its plastic, it has a good manufacturing quality and looks solid, and it has a logo of the Ugoos X3 Pro in white and green on the top, Unusually, it does not have an LED screen from the front.

    On the aspects, There is a wide range of ports that include: 1x TF Card port, 1x USB3.0, 1x USB2.0 OTG, 1x Optical SPDIF, 1x Gigabit LAN RJ45, Antenna port.

    And on the other side, we find DC 5V/2.5A via Micro USB, AV-OUT, IR, 1x HDMI2.1, and button to reset. In addition, there are also vents on the side, I think it is a good idea to facilitate the movement of air and cool the device.

    On the bottom of the device, there are four rubber pads to prevent sliding and information about the serial number and MAC address.

    Under the Hood:

    The SoC used in the Ugoos X3 Pro is the Amlogic S905X3 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex A55 1.9GHz, which is known for its good manufacturing quality 12nm with Highly efficient processing, so we see it in many modern TV box devices such as the HK1 X3, X96 MAX Plus, X88 PRO X3, either the Mali-G31 MP2 GPU, which delivers good performance in such devices without forgetting the 4 GB RAM LPDDR4 with Speed 3271 MB/s for greater multitasking capabilities and provides excellent navigation and application launching results. As for the storage capacity, it has 32GB eMMC with 108MB/s Read | 94MB/s write, and If space not enough, there is a TF card slot for expansion up to 128GB GB.

    Connectivity of the Ugoos X3 Pro:

    As for the connectivity, this box has 2.4Ghz/5.0Ghz dual-band WIFI IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac (with antenna) for faster data transmission and better streaming experience, it also comes with a feature that is missing in a lot of other TV Boxes which is a 1000Mb LAN, that is more reliable than WI-FI and provides even better data transmission.

    And has a Bluetooth 4.2 is not the latest generation but is It works well, However, a TV box at this price it would have been better if it had version 5.0.

    Remote can’t navigate on some Apps, It is a common issue for almost all android tv boxes that hard to navigate on some Apps with the remote, as these Apps are mainly provided for tablets and phones that have a touch screen. I suggest purchasing the iPazzPort mini Wireless Keyboard/Remote, It will make it much easier navigating the screen in apps that aren’t remote-control friendly.

    Software:

    The Ugoos X3 Pro android tv box equipped with the Android 9.0 OS to offers you a more efficient, safer operation, better compatibility of the latest applications, so better user experience, and the OS is pre-rooted to access more permission and install applications that require root activation with the possibility to switch enable/disable.

    First, the boot-up speed on this TV box took 31 seconds fully load the home screen from a start.

    The UI ( interface ) is beautiful, simple, and fast with a slick lag-free, has a full Android version 9 desktop layout and I’m pleased to confirm that you do have a pulldown status bar at the top and a navigational bar at the bottom, you’ve got a few shortcuts which you can customize yourself with the app drawer button in the middle.

    And that’s not all, as it has a second launcher its name Ugooslauncher that you can change between them from the settings, The main navigation menu on the left with local time at the top along with storage and connection info, the launcher looks pretty good and it’s quite smooth in functionality and you can completely customize the color layout and the background of the home screen.

    Also, the tv box comes with pre-installed apps you are going to need such as the browser, BT Sport, Miracast, Sinema HD, Google Play, Youtube, etc.

    And it supports Google services and allows you to install some app that is available in the play store because is not a certified Android TV box don’t get access to the full Google Play Store, or you can use a third-party store or use Google browser to search the apk app, then download and install the app you want.

    Note:
    X3 Pro Supports OTA updates.
    Supports install another launcher.

    Ugoos X3 Pro Performance:

    The Ugoos X3 Pro TV Box offers you a good solution if you are a fan of series and movies and like to enjoy the highest possible resolution, then this device will give you a resolution of 4K and compatibility with most programs that display video content with the ability to play games for a great experience.

    Video playback:

    When playing some 4k video samples from a USB Drive on USB 3.0 port via the included MoviePlayer, it is shown on 4k 60 FPS played ultra-smooth and very nice, And this result applies to YouTube with the highest quality is 4k.

    Netflix is not available from the Google Play Store you have to sideload it from aptoide TV or some other source.

    As it’s known, it is not possible to watch paid services like Netflix and amazon prime in 4k because of these applications requiring specific licensing. This means it don’t have the DRM support required to stream HD or 4K from Netflix or other streaming services. Nevertheless, you can still enjoy Netflix and all other streaming services at a smooth 480p.

    However, IPTV services remain one of the solutions that you will find on this tv box and support high resolutions, and there are also other programs similar to Netflix.

    Gaming:

    The graphics processing unit in the Ugoos X3 Pro is based on the Mali-G31 MP2, which offers good performance on medium games like Asphalt 8, and this is at a resolution of 1080p because at 4K the situation will be disastrous, as for powerful games like PUBG or Call of Duty you will be able to play but on low settings.

    This is why I do not recommend trying strong games because it will cause a greater load on the processor, which will release more heat, reaching 75ºC or more, causing a huge performance drop. But on normal use like watch movies, the temperature is acceptable between 40ºC and 55ºC.

    And I find that the cooling system is weak on this TV Box, but this problem can be solved by providing a cooling fan for the TV box.

    Conclusion:

    In general, the Ugoos X3 PRO delivered a great performance I hadn’t expected especially in playing 4K videos without any problems, perhaps its downsides are the low speed on the 2.4GHz band, the lack of DRM for Netflix in 4K, and the CPU temperature rises at high pressure. And its price may seem at first glance to be rather high, but such specifications and features that we mentioned in the review seldom find them combined in a TV box in the same category, a fact that deserves to be among the best.

    Ugoos X3 PRO Price And Where To Buy:

    The Ugoos X3 PRO is currently available on the Aliexpress store for just $74. This is a very good price for a TV box with such specifications So, don’t miss out on this great deal. And to view its price or buy it, you can access the offer by clicking on the store icon.
