Technical differences between X20 and Z10 ??
« on: November 08, 2018, 08:48:43 AM »
Hi Guys

looking round I cant seem to find any where to compare the different models , checking the specs  I am presuming that build wise the X20 has a second HDMI (1.4), a second hard drive bay  and my be some extra connection compared to the Z10  but spec and software wise  I see no difference between the X20 and the Z10  Am I correct ?

thanks

The chipset is the same (Realtek 1296DD) so basic performance is the same but..

X20 has a different firmware. It boots to a media player interface rather than an Android launcher.
X20 has dual (HDMI 2.0a and HDMI 1.4) HDMI ports.
X20 has two internal SATA bays.
X20 has high quality internal shielded PSU.
X20 has different better remote with Bluetooth.
X20 has standard sized 430mm chassis to fit in with AV equipment.
X20 has other, visible, casing / LCD differences.

Z9S and Z10 have the same firmware. It is very similar to X9S firmware with the same Zidoo launcher.

X20 and X20 Pro have different, more media player focussed, firmware. It has a launcher/home screen giving direct access to media (a bit like Dune or Popcorn Hour products).

Besides appearances all the Zidoo Realtek 1296 products have the same firmware base, so performance/format support are the same.
